Abstract

The paper provides a new approach to multi-robot box pushing using a proposed Non-dominated Sorting Bee Colony (NSBC) optimization algorithm. The proposed scheme determines time-, energy- and friction-optimal solution to the box-pushing problem. The performance of the developed NSBC algorithm is compared to NSGA-II in connection with the box-pushing problem and the experimental results reveal that the NSBC outperforms NSGA-II in all the experiments.
