Efficient Mission Planning for Robot Networks in Communication Constrained Environments

Abstract

The research works presented in this dissertation came into a success because of many people who helped me in many ways. First of all, I would like to thank my adviser Dr Leonardo Bobadilla who paved the way for completing the research in time through his continuous support and great advice. He made robotics very interesting to me and we had many fruitful hours of discussions on research topics while eating in restaurants, attending conferences, walking around and riding in car.
