The vision of an ecology of physically embedded intelligent systems, or PEIS-Ecology,
combines insights from the fields of autonomous robotics and ambient intelligence to …

We introduce the concept of ecology of physically embedded intelligent systems, or PEIS-
ecology. This is a network of heterogeneous robotic devices (PEIS) pervasively embedded …

The fields of autonomous robotics and ambient intelligence are converging toward the vision
of smart robotic environments, or ubiquitous robotics, in which tasks are performed via the …

The fields of autonomous robotics and ambient intelligence are converging toward the vision
of smart robotic environments, in which tasks are performed via the cooperation of many …

The field of ubiquitous robotics is burgeoning, and different brands of massively distributed
heterogeneous robotic systems are being proposed and applied to several domains. The …

Interdisciplinary research from the domains of pervasive computing or ubiquitous computing,
computer-human-interaction and computer science has led to the development of many …

This paper presents the components and overall architecture of the ubiquitous robot (Ubibot)
system developed to demonstrate ubiquitous robotics, a new paradigm for integrated …

Automation systems become more and more complex, and their traditional hierarchical and
centralized control may not be able to deal with this ever-increasing complexity satisfactorily …

A new concept for constructing an intelligent mobile system is proposed. We describe
reasons for the necessity of a new architecture for mobile systems in intelligent spaces. The …

Summary form only for tutorial. The robot technology for human-robot symbiosis including
robot adaptability to human and environment, which is urgently required in the rapidly aging …
