Modeling Open Software Architectures of Robot Controllers: A Brief Survey of Modeling Methods and Developing Methods

Abstract

Openness is one of the features of modern robot controllers. Although many modeling technologies have been discussed to model and develop open robot controllers, the focus is always on modeling methodologies. Meanwhile, the relations between the former and the latter are usually ignored. According to the general software architecture of open robot controllers, this paper discusses modeling and developing methods. And the relationships between the typical ones are also analyzed.
