Abstract

As autonomous software and robotic systems (or agents) grow in complexity, they will increasingly need to communicate and coordinate with each other. These agents will need planned courses of action to achieve their goals while sharing limited resources. Our research addresses the problem of efficiently interleaving planning and coordination for multiple agents.
