MARC Researcher Branko Miloradovic Presents at CASE 2025

8/25/2025

We are pleased to announce that MARC researcher Branko Miloradovic presented the paper, "A Formal Definition of the Multi-Robot, Multi-Task, Time-Extended Assignment Problem Configuration" at the IEEE International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE) in Los Angeles, USA.

(CASE) is the flagship automation conference of the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society (RAS). This year’s focus is Secured and Trustworthy Automation, which covers a wide range of topics on Systems, Automation, Autonomous Systems, Discrete Event Systems, Smart Cities, Robotics, Building Automation, Automation in Meso, Micro and Nano-scale, Big Data, Machine Learning, Information and Communication Technologies, etc.

Branko's paper, co-authored with Alessandro, focuses on a particularly complex configuration of multi-robot task allocation (MRTA) involving multi-task (MT) robots and multi-robot (MR) in time-extended assignments (TA) that demand extended-duration scheduling. The paper introduces new computational models based on integer linear programming (ILP) and constraint programming (CP) to address this gap.
