The concept of service robotics has grown considerably over the past two decades with many robots being used in non-industrial environments such homes, hospitals and airports. Many of these environments were never designed to have mobile service robots deployed within them. This paper describes some of the challenges that are faced and need to be overcome in order for robots to successfully work in...
This paper describes an application of the Bees Algorithm with new operators inspired by the TRIZ methodology to optimise assembly sequences for a printed-circuit board (PCB) assembly machine. The specific problem investigated is the assembly of PCBs using a machine of the moving-board-with-time-delay type. The results obtained using the Bees Algorithm with the TRIZ-inspired operators are found to...
