• Handling Model Uncertainty and Multiplicity in Explanations via Model Reconciliation (2018, methodology): “We will now introduce a Urban Search And Reconnaissance (USAR) domain (Murphy 2000) which we will use as an illustrative purposes throughout the rest of the paper.”
• Communication between Teammates in Urban Search and Rescue (2015, background): “They have the potential to be useful for tireless searching, positioning sensors, assessing damage, providing survivors with radio transmitters or supplies, guiding tool placement, and determining survivor position and location under rubble (Murphy, 2000).”
• Human-robot interactions during the robot-assisted urban search and rescue response at the World Trade Center (2003, background): “As detailed in [12], USAR robotics work has concentrated on platform development [13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22] and software development [13, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27].”
• Distributed Intelligence: Overview of the Field and Its Application in Multi-Robot Systems (2008, background): “…and reasoning about each other’s capabilities in order to accomplish a joint task, such as pushing a box (e.g., (Gerkey & Matari´c 2002)), cleaning up a worksite (e.g., (Parker 1998)), performing search and rescue (e.g., (Murphy 2000)), or extra-planetary exploration (e.g., (Stroupe et al. 2006)).”
• Human-robot interaction in rescue robotics (2004, background): “The initial postOKC efforts took two directions: the development of an expert system for determining which existing robots are useful for what situations (see [46]) and exploration of marsupial (mother-daughter) class of robots ([47]) as a solution to several platform deficiencies.”
