Abstract

We present an approach for determining optimal meet points for a team of agents performing coordinated tasks in an environment. Such points represent the best locations at which the team should meet in order to complete their current task. We develop analytical solutions for finding these meet points and describe how these techniques can be applied to several different multiagent scenarios.
