Title: SBMASE Jump Start

SB-MASE Jump Start
- Steven de Jong
2
Subsumption
- Brookss idea for task based decomposition
- Simple processes mediation process adequate
and robust behavior - IF detect obstacle THEN avoid
- IF true THEN wander
3
Resources
- SB-MASE the assignmentdownload from
www.cs.unimaas.nl/robotlab ? voor studenten ? MAS - User manual also online

Starting SB-MASE
- On Windows
- Start.bat
- Please do not use the XP skin ?
- On other platforms (or if start.bat fails)
- cd ltprogram directorygt\classes
- java raar.SBM

Interface components
6
Programming language
- Very straightforward, consult the manual
- Distinction between INPUT, OUTPUT and REGISTER
variables - Small bug calculating with NIL values
7
Example I
- In this example, we will
- Open a simulator environment
- Create a new agent
- Place the agent in the environment
- Make the agent move randomly using a process and
two actors
8
Example II
- In this example, we will
- Add obstacle avoidance to the agent using a
second process and a suppressor - Have a brief look at the available actors
- Have a brief look at the available sensors
9
Example III
- In this example, we will
- Make the agent find the base
- Discuss the way directional movement must be
implemented - Have a brief look at the available built-in
processes (monitor and factory)
10
Your task
- Program Luc Steelss MARS ROVER
- Or a slight variant of it
- First, create an agent that can pick up samples
and bring them back to the base - Second, find a way to make the task more
efficient using multiple agents
11
Competition
- Form groups of four people
- Submit your agents to us
- We will run simulations with each agent
- Two winners
- Fastest (in rounds) single agent
- Fastest multi agent system
12
Good luck
- Any questions?
