Deploying a complex robot software architecture on real robot systems and getting it to run reliably is a challenging task.

Abstract

Deploying a complex robot software architecture on real robot systems and getting it to run reliably is a challenging task. We argue that software deployment decisions should be separated as much as possible from the core development of software functionalities. This will make the developed software more independent of a particular hardware architecture (and thus more reusable) and allow it to be deployed more flexibly on a wider variety of robot platforms. This paper presents a domain-specific language (DSL) which supports this idea and demonstrates how the DSL is used in a model-driven engineering-based development process. A practical example of applying the DSL to the development of an application for the KUKA youBot platform is given.
