The series of lectures by Anatoly Pashkevich
Lecture 1
Computer-aided design of industrial robots and robotic systems: selected results
It is presented a brief overview of previous and current work in area of robotics, control and computer-aided design of industrial robotics systems. Particular attention is paid to multiobjective optimization of robotic manipulators and their control algorithms, robotic cell calibration and automatic generation of control programs. The results are illustrated by numerous application examples from automotive and airspace industry.

Lecture 2
Combinatorial Optimization Problems in CAD of Industrial Robotic Systems
The presentation concentrates on application of combinatorial optimization techniques to real-life engineering problems arising in computer-aided design of industrial robotic systems. It includes a number of case studies dealing with design and automated programming of robotic cells/lines for arc/spot welding and laser cutting, which are employed in automotive industry. Particular attention is paid to computational complexity and formalization of technological constraints as well as software implementation of the developed technique.
