.... Bekey 1996, Sukhatme et al. 1997, Sukhatme 1997) The emphasis was on developing a strategy to measure (and hence compare) the performance of robots that were kinematically different. A multiple criteria approach using Pareto optimality was used to effect the comparison. In (Pirjanian 1998, Pirjanian 1999) a strategy is presented to perform multiple objective action selection and behavior fusion using similar techniques. 1.6 PROJECT MANAGEMENT PLAN While interdisciplinary, the team is geographically co located in Los Angeles. Estrin, Bekey, Matari c and Sukhatme have their offices and ....

....optimal action based on current information. By explicitly representing and reasoning about uncertainty within the decision making process, a system can be created whose effects are well defined and well behaved. The resulting action selection mechanism generates a result which is Pareto optimal [Pirjanian, 1999]. System Model Another advantage of map based utility fusion over command fusion is that the dynamics of the system being controlled can be fully modeled and accounted for by the central reasoning process, providing greater control accuracy and stability. For example, because the arbiter is U a ....
