Web-based simulationWeb-based simulation (WBS) is the invocation of computer simulation services over the World Wide Web, specifically through a web browser. Increasingly, the web is being looked upon as an environment for providing modeling and simulation applications, and as such, is an emerging area of investigation within the simulation community. Web-based simulation is used in several contexts: In e-learning, various principles can quickly be illustrated to students by means of interactive computer animations, for example during lecture demonstrations and computer exercises.
Robot autonomevignette|exemple de robot autonome de type rover Un robot autonome, également appelé simplement autorobot ou autobot, est un robot qui exécute des comportements ou des tâches avec un degré élevé d'autonomie (sans influence extérieure). La robotique autonome est généralement considérée comme un sous-domaine de l'intelligence artificielle, de la robotique et de l'. Les premières versions ont été proposées et démontrées par l'auteur/inventeur David L. Heiserman.
Training simulationIn business, training simulation is a virtual medium through which various types of skills can be acquired. Training simulations can be used in a variety of genres; however they are most commonly used in corporate situations to improve business awareness and management skills. They are also common in academic environments as an integrated part of a business or management course. The word simulation implies an imitation of a real-life process, usually via a computer or other technological device, in order to provide a lifelike experience.
Agent-based social simulationAgent-based social simulation (or ABSS) consists of social simulations that are based on agent-based modeling, and implemented using artificial agent technologies. Agent-based social simulation is a scientific discipline concerned with simulation of social phenomena, using computer-based multiagent models. In these simulations, persons or group of persons are represented by agents. MABSS is a combination of social science, multiagent simulation and computer simulation.
Agent-based modelAn agent-based model (ABM) is a computational model for simulating the actions and interactions of autonomous agents (both individual or collective entities such as organizations or groups) in order to understand the behavior of a system and what governs its outcomes. It combines elements of game theory, complex systems, emergence, computational sociology, multi-agent systems, and evolutionary programming. Monte Carlo methods are used to understand the stochasticity of these models.
Simulation informatiquevignette|upright=1|Une simulation informatique, sur une étendue de , de l'évolution du typhon Mawar produite par le Modèle météorologique Weather Research and Forecasting La simulation informatique ou numérique est l'exécution d'un programme informatique sur un ordinateur ou réseau en vue de simuler un phénomène physique réel et complexe (par exemple : chute d’un corps sur un support mou, résistance d’une plateforme pétrolière à la houle, fatigue d’un matériau sous sollicitation vibratoire, usure d’un roulem
RoboéthiqueLa roboéthique est l'éthique appliquée à la robotique. Elle est centrée sur l'éthique humaine pour guider la conception, la construction et l'utilisation des robots. Le terme roboéthique a été inventé en 2002, par le roboticien Gian Marco Veruggio, initiateur du premier colloque international sur la rob éthique en 2004. Comme la roboéthique est une éthique avant tout centrée sur l'humain, elle doit respecter les principes les plus importants et largement acceptés de la Déclaration universelle des droits de l'homme : La dignité humaine et des droits de l'homme.
Social simulationSocial simulation is a research field that applies computational methods to study issues in the social sciences. The issues explored include problems in computational law, psychology, organizational behavior, sociology, political science, economics, anthropology, geography, engineering, archaeology and linguistics . Social simulation aims to cross the gap between the descriptive approach used in the social sciences and the formal approach used in the natural sciences, by moving the focus on the processes/mechanisms/behaviors that build the social reality.
Robotic sensingRobotic sensing is a subarea of robotics science intended to provide sensing capabilities to robots. Robotic sensing provides robots with the ability to sense their environments and is typically used as feedback to enable robots to adjust their behavior based on sensed input. Robot sensing includes the ability to see, touch, hear and move and associated algorithms to process and make use of environmental feedback and sensory data.
Cartographie et localisation simultanéesvignette|Une carte générée par le robot Darmstadt. La localisation et cartographie simultanées, connue en anglais sous le nom de SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) ou CML (concurrent mapping and localization), consiste, pour un robot ou véhicule autonome, à simultanément construire ou améliorer une carte de son environnement et de s’y localiser. La plupart des robots industriels sont fixes et effectuent des tâches dans un environnement connu.
