finite automata; robot?s behaviour; modelling

This paper proposes a model of a robot?s behaviour described by finite automata. We split robot?s knowledge into several knowledge bases which are used by the inference mechanism of the robot?s expert system to make a logic deduction. Each knowledgebase is dedicated to the particular behaviour domain and the finite automaton helps us switching among these knowledge bases with the respect of actual situation. Our goal is to simplify and reduce complexity of one big knowledgebase splitting it into several pieces. The advantage of this model is that we can easily add new behaviour by adding new knowledgebase and add this behaviour into the finite automaton and define necessary states and transitions.
