This paper presents a framework for controlling intelligent robots connected by communication networks. This framework provides novel methods to control coordinated systems using higher-order mobile agents. Higher-order mobile agents are hierarchically structured agents that can contain other mobile agents. The combination of the higher-order mobile agent and mobile multi-robots open a new horizon of efficient use of mobile robot resources. Instead of physical movement of multi-robots, mobile software agents can migrate from one robot to another so that they can find the most suitably equipped and/or the most suitably located robots to perform their task. Thus the framework presented here provides efficient use of robot resources. In this paper, we focus on the energy saving. We have demonstrated the efficiency by numerical experiments.
