Self-awareness in Real-time Cognitive Control Architectures

by Ricardo Sanz, Ignacio Lopez and Carlos Hernandez is our Contribution to the AAAI Fall Symposium 2007 Workshop on AI and Consciousness.

In this paper we describe the approach taken in the UPM Autonomous Systems Laboratory for the development of technology of full, bounded autonomy. This effort is taking us into the study of the phenomenology of consciousness especially in relation with the construction of mechanisms for system self-awareness.

The progress of this work can be tracked in our ASys and SOUL projects webpages. The ASys Project is a long-term project that deals with the development of an engineering process and a collection of assets for the implementation of autonomous systems . The SOUL Project develops a generic architecture for self-aware autonomous systems.

A Survey on Ontologies for Agents

Julia Bermejo, Ricardo Sanz and Ignacio López

Submitted to WONTO 2006, 2nd Workshop on Ontologies and their Applications.

Abstract

Ontologies and agents are two research areas that have become intertwined in recent years. Ontologies have started to be developed aiming at agent–based ap- plications. Agents have benefited by the use of ontologies in heavily information– based processes.

From the theory of ontology and agenthood to its application in practice, we have reviewed the available literature. Based on our research, we summarize the state–of–the–art in ontology–based agent applications.

Wrapping a Mobile Robot with RT-CORBA

Ricardo Sanz, Adolfo Hernando, Carlos Martínez and Ignacio López

To be presented at SYROCO 2006, 8th International IFAC Symposium on Robot Control.

Abstract

Building complex controllers is a ma jor challenge and it is widely accepted that ob ject technology can help with the problem. This is of special relevance in the field of complex robot control, in particular when distribution is necessary. CORBA is a suitable technology for deployment and is well demon- strated in the experimental field and in commercial robots. In this paper we describe the implementation of a real-time ob ject wrapper for a mobile robot using Real-time CORBA technology. This type of wrapping enables the implementation of networked robot control systems with increased degrees of predictability.
