Abstract

The paper presents a methodology for the development of robot software controllers, based on actual software component approaches and robot control architectures. A proposed control architecture pattern, useful for analysis and integration of expertise during design process is presented. A dedicated component-based language, focusing on reusability and upgradeability of controller architectures parts, is used to design and to implement software architectures.
