Abstract

In this paper we propose a semantic middleware architecture and communication support for environments with swarm robots. Our main assumption is that robots can communicate via wireless networks while we don't assume high processing power in the robots. Basic advantage of the proposed middleware is the extension of robots' capabilities via access to semantic information and powerful processing engines. The architecture is conformant with main standard solutions and allows reusing intelligent functionality implemented in the external world.
