Abstract :
We take an optimization approach, inspired by Bemporad and Morari (1999), toward synthesizing control strategies for cooperative muti-agent systems. We successfully apply this approach to a subproblem derived from a new test-bed for studies in cooperative systems called the RoboFlag competition.
