Abstract: In [Don4], we described a manipulation task for cooperating mobile robots that can push large, heavy objects. There, we asked whether explicit local and global communication between the agents can be removed from a family of pushing protocols. In this paper, we answer in the affirmative. We do so by using the general methods of [Don4] analyzing information invariants. We discuss several measures for the information complexity of the task of pushing with cooperating mobile robots, and we present ... (Update)

.... task) Moreover, tasks that could not be performed at all by a single agent become manageable when many simple units are used instead [7, 17]. In this paper, we concentrate on the problem of coordinating a set of mobile robots (units) that can freely move on a plane so that...

.... large and powerful unit for many reasons: low costs in changing faulty units; ability to solve tasks otherwise unsolvable by a single unit [3,4] (e.g. robots that have to move big objects [5] certain problems can be solved quicker [6] e.g. robots that are asked to clean a...
