Remembering without memory: Tree exploration by asynchronous oblivious robots
2010
Theoretical Computer Science
The robots are often assumed (or required to be) oblivious: they keep no memory of observations and computations made in previous cycles. ...

Since robots are oblivious, i.e., they do not have any memory of past observations, the destination is decided by a robot during a Compute operation solely on the basis of the location of other robots ...

Oblivious Robots on Graphs: Exploration
[chapter]
2019
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
This chapter focuses on the problem of exploring a graph by a team of mobile robots endowed with vision. ...
The goal for these robots is to explore the graph in which they are, that is to visit all vertices of the graph. ...
This more or less explains why exclusive perpetual exploration cannot be solved by more than n − q robots.
Algorithmic techniques for oblivious robots in rings and grids. ...

Network Exploration by Silent and Oblivious Robots
[chapter]
2010
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In this paper we investigate the basic problem of Exploration of a graph by a group of identical mobile computational entities, called robots, operating autonomously and asynchronously. ...
In particular we are concerned with what graphs can be explored, and how, if the robots do not remember the past and have no explicit means of communication. ...
Moreover, since robots are oblivious, the task of deciding the global status of the exploration process, in particular termination detection, has to be performed without memory and without communication ...

How many oblivious robots can explore a line
2011
Information Processing Letters
We consider the problem of exploring an anonymous line by a team of k identical, oblivious, asynchronous deterministic mobile robots that can view the environment but cannot communicate. ...
For k < n, exploration by k robots turns out to be possible, if and only if either k = 3, or k ≥ 5, or k = 4 and n is odd. ...
Robots are also oblivious: they do not remember past observations and in each cycle the computation is based only on the result of the Look operation in this cycle. ...

The BG-simulation for Byzantine Mobile Robots
[article]
2011
arXiv
pre-print
At the core of our impossibility result is a reduction from the distributed consensus problem in asynchronous shared-memory systems. ...
It is known that the solvability of Byzantine gathering strongly depends on a number of system attributes, such as synchrony, the number of Byzantine robots, scheduling strategy, obliviousness, orientation ...

Optimal Probabilistic Ring Exploration by Semi-synchronous Oblivious Robots
[chapter]

Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We consider a team of k identical, oblivious, semi-synchronous mobile robots that are able to sense (i.e., view) their environment, yet are unable to communicate, and evolve on a constrained path. ...
Previous results in this weak scenario show that initial symmetry yields high lower bounds when problems are to be solved by deterministic robots. ...

Meeting in a Polygon by Anonymous Oblivious Robots
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
Moreover, oblivious searchers can execute our algorithms as well, encoding information by carefully positioning themselves within the polygon. ...
For instance, if the searchers have memory but are anonymous, asynchronous, and have no agreement on a coordinate system or a notion of clockwise direction, then our algorithms work even if the initial ...
In the Look-Compute-Move model, asynchronous oblivious robots with unlimited visibility can solve the Gathering problem without additional assumptions [8] . ...

Verification of Asynchronous Mobile-Robots in Partially-Known Environments
[chapter]
2015
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
The motivation is from practical scenarios in which the environment is not completely know to the robots, e.g., physical robots exploring a maze, or software agents exploring a hostile network. ...
This paper establishes a framework based on logic and automata theory in which to model and automatically verify that multiple mobile robots, with sensing abilities, moving asynchronously, correctly perform ...
A second limitation is that robots do not have a rich memory (e.g., they cannot remember a map of where they have visited). ...
