- PublicationA UML-based Software Engineering Methodology for Agent Factory(Knowledge Systems Institute Graduate School, 2004-06-20)
; ; This paper presents the Agent Factory Development Methodology, an Agent-Oriented Software Engineering (AOSE) methodology that employs a synthesis of the Unified Modelling Language (UML) and Agent UML to support the development of multi-agent systems. We illustrate the use of this methodology, through a simple case study and briefly compare it to some other well-known AOSE methodologies.292 - PublicationSocial robotics: reality and virtuality in agent-based robotics(1999-06-23)
; ; ; ; This paper advocates the application of multi-agent techniques in the realisation of social robotic behaviour. We present the Social Robot Architecture, which integrates the key elements of agenthood and robotics in a coherent and systematic manner. This architecture seamlessly integrates real world robots, multi-agent development tools, and VRML visualisation tools into a coherent whole.307 - PublicationSensor fusion for social robotics(2000-05-14)
; ; ; This paper advocates the application of sensor fusion for the visualisation of social robotic behaviour. Experiments with the Virtual Reality Workbench integrate the key elements of Virtual Reality and robotics in a coherent and systematic manner. The deliberative focusing of attention and sensor fusion between vision systems and sonar sensors is implemented on autonomous mobile robots functioning in standard office environments254 - PublicationAgent factory: towards social robots(1999-06-01)
; ; ; ; This paper advocates the application of multi-agent techniques in the realisation of social robotic behaviour. We present the Social Robot Architecture, which integrates the key elements of agent-hood and robotics in a coherent and systematic manner. This architecture seamlessly integrates, real world robots, multi-agent development tools, and VRML visualisation tools into a coherent whole. Using these elements, we deliver a development environment, which facilitates rapid prototyping of social robot communities301 - PublicationWhat is a social robot?(1999-09-01)
; ; ; This paper discusses the concept of a social robot. Developing from recent work on physical embodiment, the necessity for a socially embodied robot is presented. Current work via the Social Robot Architecture seeks to develop and demonstrate these concepts.4607 - PublicationMobile BDI Agents(2000-08)
; ; ; Much work has been done in the area of Mobile Agents. However, the majority of this research has emphasized "mobile" and largely ignored "agent". This paper attempts to rectify this through the presentation of research that combines the areas of Intentional Agents and Mobility, namely the construction of Mobile BDI Agents.230 - PublicationThe social robot architecture: towards sociality in a real world domainThis paper advocates the application of multi-agent techniques in the realisation of social robotic behaviour. We present an architecture which commissions agent-based deliberation without sacrificing the reactive qualities necessary in a real world domain, and which is situated within a social landscape through the use of an Agent Communication Language.
