Abstract :
This paper presents the possibility to model multiple instances of the multi-sensor task allocation (MSTA) problem as specializations of the multi-robot task allocation (MRTA) problem. However capturing essential characteristics of the MSTA problem requires an extension of the MRTA taxonomy to cover domain-specific features of sensor networks, leading to the need for a new taxonomy of MSTA problems.
