DSAAR: A Distributed Software Architecture for Autonomous Robots

摘要

This paper describes the DSAAR architecture, which aims the fast development and prototyping of multi-robot systems and it is based on Linux inter-process communication (IPC) mechanisms and multi-agent Jade software platform. This architecture is of special interest in domains where several heterogeneous actors have to interact both with and without realtime constraints. One of these domains is humanitarian demining, where technology transfer is also a requirement.
