Swarm robots task allocation based on local communication

Task allocation is an essential strategy to achieve effective cooperation for swarm robots. Self-organized task allocation strategy is studied and efficient labor division and regulation is realized through local interactions among individual robots based on response threshold model. Local communication mechanism is proposed for the purpose of sharing local sensation information, and the simulation experiments verify that the efficiency of task allocation is improved significantly.
