Towards a Deep, Domain Specific Modeling Framework for Robot Applications.

摘要

Abstract. In the future, robots will play an increasingly important role in many areas of human society from domestic housekeeping and geriatric care to manufacturing and running businesses. To best exploit these new opportunities, and allow third party developers to create new robot appli-cations in as simple and efficient a manner as possible, new user-friendly approaches for describing desired robot behavior need to be supported. This paper introduces a prototype domain-specific modeling framework designed to support the quick, simple and reliable creation of control soft-ware for standard robot platforms. To provide the best mix of general purpose and domain-specific language features the framework leverages the deep modeling paradigm and accommodates the execution phases as well as design phases of a robot application’s lifecycle.
