Abstract :
The amount of books has been one of the important indexes to measure the libraries´ level. While the books´ daily management work in library such as how to classify and place books has aggravated the burden of the librarians. The rapid development of mobile-robot technology and multi-agent give a new possible method to solve this problem. therefore, this paper provides a mobile-robot model based on multi-agent technology, which can recognize, classify and place books automatically, and navigate the walk route by improved BUG algorithm which can complete the work of classify and arrange books quickly and correctly. This model can simplify the traditional manual work and lighten the heavy and repeated labor, which produces the far-reaching realistic meaning for introducing the artificial intelligence technology into daily life.
