Description:
------------
We parallelized a hybrid two-layered approach for motion planning of
multiple agents in virtual environments we proposed in a previous
paper on a SMP system. We implemented the task parallelism in a
supervisor-worker paradigm with Unix processes who communicate with
each other using System V Interprocess Communication mechanism. The
video demonstrates the parallel efficiency of our implementation and
shows that the hybrid two-layered approach can handle more agents
and more complicated virtual environments by constructing and
processing multiple coordination graphs in parallel on a SMP system.
