Reconfiguration and Reprogramming in Robotics and Communication Network Control Systems: Proposal for Continued Collaborative Berkeley-LAAS Research

机器人研究的重点已经转移到开发 用于协调多个硬件的统一操作环境 以及用于各种任务的shofware组件。 两个问题 从这一重点转移中揭示出来： 控制系统结构和重新编程控制系统 新功能和新应用。 类似的转变 在通信网络协议设计中， 设计控制器，实现一个单一的协议， 可以支持多种协议的控制器。 这项活动的目的是实现控制系统的进步 重新配置和重新编程， 机器人控制和通信协议的想法 research. 实现这一目标的途径是， 伯克利的机器人和通信网络研究小组 和LAAS，图卢兹。

The focus of robotics research has shifted to the development of a unified operating environment for coordinating several hardware and shofware components for a variety of tasks. Two problems are revealed from this shift of focus: reconfiguration of the control system architecture and reprogramming the control system for new functionalities and new applications. A similar shift has occurred in communication network protocol design from one designing controllers that implement a single protocol to one controllers that can support a variety of protocols. The aim of this activity is to achieve advances in control system reconfiguration and reprogramming through a cross-fertilization of ideas from robotics control and communication protocol research. This will be achieved by bringing closer together the robotics and communication network research groups at Berkeley and LAAS, Toulouse.
