It shows the design considerations for a novel REPLICATOR robotic platform, both hardware and software, featuring the behavioral characteristics of social insect colonies. Following a comprehensive overview of some of the bio-inspired techniques already available, and of the state-of-the-art in re-configurable modular robotic systems, the book presents a novel power management system with fault-tolerant energy sharing, as well as its implementation in the REPLICATOR robotic modules. In addition, the book discusses, for the first time, the concept of ?artificial energy homeostasis? in the context of a modular robotic organism, and shows its verification on a custom-designed simulation framework in different dynamic power distribution and fault tolerance scenarios. This book offers an ideal reference guide for both hardware engineers and software developers involved in the design and implementation of autonomous robotic systems. 410 0$aAdaptation, Learning, and Optimization,$x1867-4534 ;$v17 606 $aRobotics 606 $aAutomation 606 $aComputational complexity 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aBiomedical engineering 606 $aRobotics and Automation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T19020 606 $aComplexity$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T11022 606 $aArtificial Intelligence$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21000 606 $aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T2700X 615 0$aRobotics. 615 0$aAutomation. 615 0$aComputational complexity. 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 0$aBiomedical engineering. 615 14$aRobotics and Automation. 615 24$aComplexity. 615 24$aArtificial Intelligence. 615 24$aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering. 676 $a629.892 700 $aQadir$b Raja Humza$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0720655 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299853203321 996 $aSelf-sufficiency of an autonomous reconfigurable modular robotic organism$91412410 997 $aUNINA
