Robot Software Framework Using Object and Aspect Oriented Programming Paradigm

  • Chapter
Distributed Autonomous Robotic Systems 8

Abstract

Robot software framework using object and aspect oriented programming paradigm is proposed. The object oriented programming paradigm is used to cope with reusability and extensibility of a robot software system. The aspect oriented programming paradigm is used to cope with cross-cutting concerns in robot tasks. The knowledge for concerned objects is built into the objects themselves, but the knowledge for cross-cutting concerns is written in “aspects.” For example, an exception, such as obstacle avoidance, is one of such cross-cutting knowledge. This framework makes robot software easy to be maintained and reused.
