Abstract

This paper describes the notion of "dlstrlbuted robotic system" (DRS) based on "instinctive" response and cooperation. Two specific aspects of DRS are Investigated In some detail: the self configuration capabilities and the pattern generation problem. Simulation is used as a tool for dealing with the variety of possible distributions of the DRS, of environmental conditions and of individual reactions of each robotic unit. Problems associated with communication between robotic units are also addressed. Simulation demonstrates that communication and cooperation are very effective in enhancing the performan of the DRS during tasks requiring exploration, such as the search of pollutants.
