A Characterization of the Visibility Process and Its Effect on Search Policies

Abstract

The work described in the report considers an important environmental effect -- the visibility process. The research explores the development of mathematical structures which link the detection and visibility processes, examines the effect that the visibility process has on classical search strategies, and provides guidelines regarding search situations which require explicit consideration of the visibility process in the development of optimal search policies.
