            Abstract : 
A method for the global configuration resolution for kinematically redundant manipulators is presented. This method is based on an efficient global optimization algorithm which uses a sub-energy tunneling function and terminal repellers. This optimization algorithm is reviewed, and its specialization to redundancy resolution is developed. Applications of this method and comparisons to null-space projection are presented
