Distributed multi-agent diagnosis and recovery from sensor failures
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents work extending previous research in sensor fault tolerance, classification, and recovery from a single robot to a heterogeneous team of distributed robots. This approach allows teams of robots to share knowledge about the working environment, sensor and task state, to diagnose failures and also communicate to redistribute tasks in the event that a robot becomes inoperable. Our work presents several novel extensions to prior art: distributed fault handling and task management in a dynamic, distributed Java framework. This research was implemented and demonstrated on robots in a lab environment performing a simplified search operation.

Diagnosing Multi-agent Systems
One of the key requirements in collaborating distributed applications is that their sub-systems remain synchronized during their joint operation. With increasing deployment of software ”teams”, composed of distributed applications in complex, dynamic settings, there is an increasing need to also be able respond to failures that occur in their synchronization and coordinated operation, in partic...
متن کاملTowards Model-Based Diagnosis of Coordination Failures
With increasing deployment of multi-agent and distributed systems, there is an increasing need for failure diagnosis systems. While successfully tackling key challenges in multi-agent settings, modelbased diagnosis has left open the diagnosis of coordination failures, where failures often lie in the boundaries between agents, and thus the inputs to the model—with which the diagnoser simulates t...
متن کاملPlan Diagnosis and Agent Diagnosis in Multi-agent Systems
The paper discusses a distributed approach for monitoring and diagnosing the execution of a plan where concurrent actions are performed by a team of cooperating agents. The paper extends the notion of plan diagnosis, introduced by Roos et al for the execution of a multi agent plan, with the notion of agent diagnosis. While plan diagnosis is able to capture the distinction between primary and se...
متن کاملDistributed and Cooperative Compressive Sensing Recovery Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks with Bi-directional Incremental Topology
Recently, the problem of compressive sensing (CS) has attracted lots of attention in the area of signal processing. So, much of the research in this field is being carried out in this issue. One of the applications where CS could be used is wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The structure of WSNs consists of many low power wireless sensors. This requires that any improved algorithm for this appli...
متن کاملProvision of Recovery from Host Failure for Sama Group Communication Middleware for Mobile Agents
A high speed group communication middleware can considerably improve performance of multi-agent systems. Sama is a fast and scalable group communication middleware for mobile agents. It achieves scalability and low message delivery time by dis tributing message dissemination load among all mobile agent servers. Sama uses Message Dispatcher Objects (MDOs), which are special objects on each agent...
