“…For this purpose, a simulation was developed to provide a means to implement, assess and compare system configurations and autonomous decision-making algorithms for SRRSs. The simulation system is based on work discussed previously in [3,4]. The proposed simulation system focuses on the decision-making and planning of the system as opposed to modeling the physics of self-replication.…”

Self-replicating robot systems (SRRSs) are a new prospective paradigm for robotic exploration. They can potentially facilitate lower mission costs and enhance mission capabilities by allowing some materials, which are needed for robotic system construction, to be collected in situ and used for robot fabrication. The use of a self-replicating robot system can potentially lower risk aversion, due to the ability to potentially replenish lost or damaged robots, and may increase the likelihood of mission success. This paper proposes and compares system configurations of an SRRS. A simulation system was designed and is used to model how an SRRS performs based on its system configuration, attributes, and operating environment. Experiments were conducted using this simulation and the results are presented.
