Reseña del editor:

ThesearetheproceedingsoftheRoboCup2004Symposium,heldattheInstituto Superior T´ ecnico, in Lisbon, Portugal in conjunction with the RoboCup c- petition. The papers presented here document the many innovations in robotics that result from RoboCup. A problem in any branch of science or engineering is how to devise tests that can provide objective comparisons between alt- native methods. In recent years, competitive engineering challenges have been established to motivate researchers to tackle di?cult problems while providing a framework for the comparison of results. RoboCup was one of the ?rst such competitions and has been a model for the organization of challenges foll- ing sound scienti?c principles. In addition to the competition, the associated symposium provides a forum for researchers to present refereed papers. But, for RoboCup, the symposium has the greater goal of encouraging the exchange of ideas between teams so that the competition, as a whole, progresses from year to year and strengthens its contribution to robotics. One hundred and eighteen papers were submitted to the Symposium. Each paper was reviewed by at least two international referees; 30 papers were - cepted for presentation at the Symposium as full papers and a further 38 were accepted for poster presentation. The quality of the Symposium could not be maintained without the support of the authors and the generous assistance of the referees.

Reseña del editor:

This book constitutes the eight official archival publication devoted to RoboCup. It documents the achivements presented at the RoboCup 2004 Symposium, held in Lisbon, Portugal in June/July 2004 in conjunction with the RoboCup Competition. The 36 revised full papers and 26 revised short papers presented together with 2 award winning papers and an introductory overview went through two rounds of reviewing and post-symposium improvements and were selected from 118 paper submissions. The book is a valuable source of reference and inspiration for R & D professionals active or interested in robotics, distributed artificial intelligence, and it is mandatory reading for the rapidly growing RoboCup community.
