Engineering Heterogeneous Robotics Systems: A Software Architecture-Based Approach

RoboPrism, a framework that supports software-architecture-based development of robotic systems, is accessible to nonexperts in robotics, deals effectively with heterogeneity in distributed and mobile robotics systems, and facilitates adaptation in complex, dynamic environments.
