Originální abstrakt

The paper presents a series of experiments in a simulated environment where two autonomous mobile robots gather randomly distributed objects and cluster them on a pile. The co-ordination of the robots’ movements is achieved through stigmergy (an indirect form of communication through the environment). The random moves, necessary for stigmergy based foraging behaviour, make the task solution a time consuming process. In order to speed up the foraging behaviour, the immune network robot control is proposed. Stigmergic principles are coded in two artificial immune networks}for a collision free goal following behaviour and for an object picking up/dropping behaviour. Simulations confirm the improved performance of the foraging behaviour under the proposed immune network control. Copyright # 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
