Abstract
The complexity of multiple robot coordination has added more functions to robot programming. The impact of the language statement is considered in connection with the support of multiple robot coordination. Requirements for a general-purpose robot control language are summarized, and several industrial applications of multiple robot coordination are discussed. Three types of group motion and their programming impact are reviewed: simultaneous motion, coordinated motion, and independent motion. Multitasking is also shown to be a necessary programming tool in multiple robot control
