Distributed Sensing

The Distributed Vehicle Monitoring Testbed aimed at solving the problem of coordinating sensors in a field so as to track a target.
Our own TargetShare project aimed to do the same, but with much smaller sensors.
The problem has lead to a lot of research in multiagent systems, from partial global planning to distributed constraint satisfaction.
Depending on the specifics of the problem description, distributed sensing can be viewed as different problems.
