Abstract
Many existing programming environments, such as those documented in this book, are all proposing different approaches for mobile robotics system development and integration. Most of them are incompatible with each other for different reasons [OC03], such as the use of specific communication protocols and/or mechanisms, different operating systems, robotics platforms, architectural concepts, programming languages, intended purpose, proprietary source codes, etc. This leads to code replication of common functionalities across different programming environments, and to specific functionalities being often restricted to one programming environment.
