Scalable and energy-efficient task allocation in industry 4.0: Leveraging distributed auction and IBPSO.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Industry 4.0 has transformed manufacturing with the integration of cutting-edge technology, posing crucial issues in the efficient task assignment to multi-tasking robots within smart factories. The paper outlines a unique method of decentralizing auctions to handle basic tasks. It also introduces an improved variant of the improved Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (IBPSO) algorithm to manage complicated tasks that require multi-robot collaboration. The main contributions we make are: the design of an auction decentralization algorithm (AOCTA) which allows for an efficient and flexible task distribution in dynamic contexts, the optimization of coalition formation in complex jobs by using IBPSO and improves the efficiency of energy and decreases the cost of computation as well as thorough simulations that show that our proposed method significantly surpasses conventional methods for efficiency, task completion rates in terms of energy usage, task completion rate, and scaling of the system. This research contributes to the development of smart manufacturing through providing an effective solution that aligns with the sustainability objectives and addresses operational efficiency as well as environmental impacts. Addressing the challenges posed by dynamic task allocation in distributed multi-robot systems, these advanced technologies provide a comprehensive solution, facilitating the evolution of innovative manufacturing systems.
