Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are attracting great interest in a number of application
domains concerned with monitoring and control of physical phenomena, as they enable …

With the development of cloud computing, big data, and other emerging technologies, the
integration of cloud technology and multi-robot systems makes it possible to design multi …

The popularity of low-power wireless sensors increased significantly in the last decade,
triggering a golden era for wireless sensor network research and development. During the …

Tools from computational homology are introduced to verify coverage in an idealized sensor
network. These methods are unique in that, while they are coordinate-free and assume no …

In this paper, we study the problem of distributed motion coordination among a group of
nonholonomic ground robots. We develop vision-based control laws for parallel and …

In an emergency, wireless network sensors combined with a navigation algorithm could help
safely guide people to a building exit while helping them avoid hazardous areas. We …

We describe a distributed simulation tool which addresses the unique needs for the
simulation of emergency response scenarios. The simulation tool adopts the multi-agent …

Recent years have witnessed the growing popularity of sensor and sensor-network
technologies, supporting important practical applications. One of the fundamental issues is …

We describe an approach to recognizing location from mobile devices using image-based
Web search. We demonstrate the usefulness of common image search metrics applied on …

We study self-organized cooperation between heterogeneous robotic swarms. The robots of
each swarm play distinct roles based on their different characteristics. We investigate how …
