Communication Capability For A Simulation-Based Test And Evaluation Framework For Autonomous Systems, Ntiana Sakioti Oct 2019

Communication Capability For A Simulation-Based Test And Evaluation Framework For Autonomous Systems, Ntiana Sakioti

Computational Modeling & Simulation Engineering Theses & Dissertations

The design and testing process for collaborative autonomous systems can be extremely complex and time-consuming, so it is advantageous to begin testing early in the design. A Test & Evaluation (T&E) Framework was previously developed to enable the testing of autonomous software at various levels of mixed reality. The Framework assumes a modular approach to autonomous software development, which introduces the possibility that components are not in the same stage of development. The T&E Framework allows testing to begin early in a simulated environment, with the autonomous software methodically migrating from virtual to augmented to physical environments as component development …


Research On Network Public Opinion Simulation From Interdisciplinary Perspective, Lingnan He, Kaisheng Lai, Zhongxuan Lin, Xiling Xiong Jan 2019

Research On Network Public Opinion Simulation From Interdisciplinary Perspective, Lingnan He, Kaisheng Lai, Zhongxuan Lin, Xiling Xiong

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: The simulation of network public opinion shows a trend of interdisciplinary development. On the one hand, the method of data analysis in network public opinion belongs to natural science; on the other hand, participants are social people and have strong social scientific attributes. However, at present, most of the simulation models come from the natural science fields such as system dynamics, Markov model, small-world theory and SIS model, etc. This paper introduces the big five personality of psychology, media literacy of communication, opinion leaders and diffusion of innovation theory, taking the psychological modeling in the dissemination of the main …


Investigation On Communication Aspects Of Multiple Swarm Networked Robotics, Shahzad Ali, Zenib Khan, Ahmad Din, Mahmood Ul Hassan Jan 2019

Investigation On Communication Aspects Of Multiple Swarm Networked Robotics, Shahzad Ali, Zenib Khan, Ahmad Din, Mahmood Ul Hassan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Swarm robotics is an emerging field of robotics and is envisioned to play a vital role in surveillance and search/rescue operations. Most of the existing works on swarm networked robotics address the problem of formation movement or the communication aspects within a swarm. However, none of the existing works consider multiple swarms. Even for the case of single swarms, researchers use unrealistic assumptions with respect to communication, leading to unrealistic results. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of multiple swarms considering realistic assumptions with respect to communication. To the best of our knowledge, it will be the first time …
