TÍTULO: A Platform for Multi-Agent Systems Research and Development
RESUMEN:
In this talk I describe a platform for the development of Multi-Agent Systems that we have built over many years. The talk summarises some of our ongoing research projects which aim to extend the platform, mainly by incorporating various AI techniques into the platform so that other users also benefit from such developments. Target areas of application are in the spirit of "AI for the Social Good", in particular human-robot teamwork in disaster rescue scenarios and in healthcare.
