Literature reviews on Multi-Robot Systems (MRS) typically focus on fundamental technical
aspects, like coordination and communication, that need to be considered in order to …

Confined and subterranean areas are common in many civilian and industrial sites,
although they are hazardous for humans given the presence of noxious gases, extreme …

Exploration of initially unknown environments is an online task in which autonomous mobile
robots coordinate themselves to efficiently discover free spaces and obstacles. Several …

Physical sampling of water for off-site analysis is necessary for many applications like
monitoring the quality of drinking water in reservoirs, understanding marine ecosystems, and …

During several applications, such as search and rescue, robots must discover new
information about the environment and, at the same time, share operational knowledge with …

Motivated by planetary exploration, we consider the problem of deploying a network of
mobile robots to explore an unknown environment and share information with a stationary …

This paper tackles the problem of constructing a communication map of a known
environment using multiple robots. A communication map encodes information on whether …

This paper addresses the problem of building an occupancy grid map of an unknown
environment using a swarm comprising resource-constrained robots, ie, robots with limited …

This paper presents a planning and execution architecture suited for the initial planning, the
execution and the on-board repair of a plan for a multi-robot mission. The team as a whole …

The importance of communication in many multirobot information-gathering tasks requires
the availability of reliable communication maps. These provide estimates of the radio signal …
