...ould provide control inputs according to this model.6.1 Market Based Approach For coordination among the teammates and task allocation, we have so far employed a market driven task allocation scheme =-=[10, 11]-=-. In this method, the robots calculate a cost value (their fitness) for each role. The calculated costs are broadcasted through the team and based on a ranking scheme, the robots pick the most appropr...
