Abstract:
This paper presents work in progress towards building CASALITE, which is a Java programming framework to create lightweight, communicational, hybrid multiagent systems. Our goal is to create a framework that runs on small and large devices with a minimal footprint (lightweight), that relies in message communications as the basic mechanism of interaction (communicational), and that allows building a mix of agents ranging from purely software-based to robotic-based (hybrid). To validate our work we plan test cases for single robot control and multiple robot collaboration. CASALITE will adopt a robot simulator for offline testing of robot programs.
