These conflicts can be resolved either via competition, following a {\textquotedblleft}winner-take-all{\textquotedblright} approach, or via cooperation in a {\textquotedblleft}voting-based{\textquotedblright} approach. In this paper we present two robotic architectures implementing these approaches, and report on experiments we have performed to compare their underlying optimization policies. We have framed this study within the context of the {\textquotedblleft}two-resource problem,{\textquotedblright} as it provides a widely used standard that favors systematic experimentation, analysis, and comparison of results.}, isbn = {978-3-540-20057-4}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-540-39432-7_79}, url = {https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007\%2F978-3-540-39432-7_79}, author = {Avila-Garc{\'\i}a, Orlando and Lola Ca{\~n}amero and Ren{\'e} te Boekhorst}, editor = {Banzhaf, Wolfgang and Christaller, Thomas and Dittrich, Peter and Kim, Jan T and Ziegler, Jens} }
