Beyond Robustness: A Taxonomy of Approaches towards Resilient Multi-Robot Systems

Understand

Robustness is key to engineering, automation, and science as a whole.

• However, the property of robustness is often underpinned by costly requirements such as over-provisioning, known uncertainty and predictive models, and known adversaries.
• These conditions are idealistic, and often not satisfiable.
• Resilience on the other hand is the capability to endure unexpected disruptions, to recover swiftly from negative events, and bounce back to normality.
