This mode searches for entries containing all the entered words in their title, author, date, comment field, or in any of many other fields showing on OPC pages.
Surname
This mode searches for entries containing the text string you entered in their author field. Note that the database does not have first names for all authors, so it is preferable to search only by surnames. If you search for a full name or a name with an initial, enter it in the format used internally, namely the "Lastname, Firstname" or "Lastname, F." format.
Advanced
This mode differs from the all fields mode in two respects. First, some information not publicly available on the site is searched, e.g., abstracts and excerpts gathered by the crawler, which are not always accurate but can help broaden one's search. Second, you may prefix any term with a '+' or '-' to narrow the search to entries containing it or not containing it, respectively. Terms which are not prefixed by a '+' are not mandatory. Instead, they are weighed depending on their frequency in order to determine the best search results. You may also search for a literal string composed of several words by putting them in double quotation marks (").
Note that short and / or common words are ignored by the search engine.

Abstract: Pioneer approaches to Artificial Intelligence have traditionally
neglected, in a chronological sequence, the agent body, the world
where the agent is situated, and the other agents. With the advent of
Collective Robotics approaches, important progresses were made toward
embodying and situating the agents, together with the introduction of
collective intelligence. However, the currently used models of social environments are still rather poor, jeopardizing the attempts of developing
truly intelligent robot teams. In this paper, we propose a roadmap for
a new approach to the design of multi-robot systems, mainly inspired
by concepts from Institutional Economics, an alternative to mainstream
neoclassical economic theory. Our approach intends to sophisticate the
design of robot collectives by adding, to the currently popular emergentist
view, the concepts of physically and socially bounded autonomy of
cognitive agents, uncoupled interaction among them and deliberately set
up coordination devices.
