Design Space Exploration in Robotics

This book provides a foundation of the overall cycle from design and modelling to implementation and control of unmanned systems, exhibiting autonomy and instantiating self-organization amidst disturbances, also functioning in uncertain and dynamic environments. The underlying assumption of the research path taken is that unmanned systems exhibiting attributes of autonomy, autonomous functionality, and resilience have to be considered as technically engineered systems. Hence, validation, ve...
