Title
A Real Time Approach for Task Allocation in a Disaster Scenario
Abstract
A disaster scenario is a very dynamic environment where agents have to face surrounding environmental changes constantly. In this kind of scenarios, the quality of the tasks allocation is highly relevant because every minute spent reduces the chance of successfully rescuing the victims. In this approach, a real time sequencing technique is presented in order to schedule victims taking into account his/her death time. To do that, our rescue agents search for the victims and predict their death time to establish a victim priority order in our decentralized scheduling algorithm. Moreover, the approach in this paper is compared with a centralized task allocation approach. The RoboCup Rescue simulator has been used for experimentation.
