Join our workshop on “RobMoSys: Better Models, Better Tools, Better Systems” at ERF 2018 in Tampere on March 14, 2018, 14:00 to 15:30 in the Systems Engineering track. The workshop will be in room Duetto 2.

The objective of this edition of the RobMoSys workshop is threefold:

  • to present the selected RobMoSys Open Call 1 projects to the community
  • to present the work that the project partners themselves have already realised in the first year of the project
  • explaining how interested parties beyond RobMoSys and beyond funded RobMoSys Open Call 1 projects can participate, collaborate and contribute (participate in workshops, summer schools, embedding researchers in consortium partner labs, open source co-development of models and tools, getting feedback and suggestions from RobMoSys in other H2020 projects, etc.).

We are looking forward to seeing you there!

About the Workshop
RobMoSys: Better Models, Better Tools, Better Systems

OBJECTIVES

The RobMoSys project has started the creation of a new software engineering landscape, to harmonise robotics model specifications, establish a common open methodology for software development, improve tools and foster interoperability by model interchange and composability.
RobMoSys drives the non-competitive part of building the eco-system aiming at turning community involvement into active support for an ecosystem of professional quality and scope. For this, RobMoSys includes Open Calls with third party funding. At the time of the workshop, the first open call resulted in a selection of funded projects.

AGENDA

AGENDA

Tampere, March 14, 2018 – 2:00 – 3:30 pm – Room Duetto 2

 

14:00 Introduction and Overview from the RobMoSys Consortium Christian Schlegel (HS Ulm) and Herman Bruyninckx (Ku Leuven)
14:15 Short Presentations of the Open Call 1 Projects:

  • CARVE – Integration of Behavioral Trees in RobMoSys (IIT, University of Genova, UTRC-ALES)
  • e-ITUS – Creating an infrastructure to assure system safety at design time (analysis and simulation) and at run time (monitoring) (Tecnalia, Akeo Plus)
  • EG-IPC – Extension of Intrinsically Passive Control model and integration in the RobMoSys ecosystem (University of Twente, TNO)
  • MOOD2BE – Integration of Behavioral Trees in RobMoSys (FUNDACIO EURECAT)
  • RoQME -Tools and models for the assessment of Non-Functional properties in RobMoSys (University of Extremadura, Universidad de Málaga, Biometic Vox)
  • Plug&Bench – Develop a component-based, composable benchmark system within the RobMoSys ecosystem (Fraunhofer IPA, Politecnico di Milano)
14:35 Presentation of Community Involvement Instruments by RobMoSys (Workshops, Summer Schools, embedding researchers, open-source co-development, etc.) Christian Schlegel (HS Ulm)
14:45 Discussions and Q&A

  • What should a “Model-based robotics platform” really look like? Where does the platform stop, and the applications start?
  • What does “composability” really mean, and where are the low-hanging fruits, as well as the really tough challenges?
  • Community Involvement and Contributions (Workshops, Online tools)
  • Model-driven software engineering in robotics (tool builder perspective)
  • EU Digital Industrial Platform for Robotics (system builder perspective)
  • A software ecosystem benefitting the vast uptake of robotics (industry perspective)
  • What are the really hard problems that we all need to see solved?

This list is not exhaustive, and will be adapted to the inputs of the participants of the workshop.

NEXT STEPS

Upcoming RobMoSys workshops in 2018:

  • September 11: ITP Workshop
    • Inter-ITP workshop to improve harmonization of different ITP contributions to the RobMoSys platform and ecosystem and to strengthen cooperation among ITPs.
  • September 12: Tier 1 Expert Workshop
    • selected group of committed community members, each with a specific set of expertise and experience to realize a fast feedback loop with the community and guarantee transparency, openness, reactivity and relevance of open call topics
  • September 13: Open Community Workshop
    • Explaining and discussing the outcome of the Tier 1 Expert workshop and informing about the progress of core RobMoSys work as well as of ITPs

MOre information and how to register will be published soon at: http://robmosys.eu/events/

Open community discussion platform:

You will benefit most if you share your experiences or problems with the current code-centric robotic platforms and their expectations from a model-driven method and tools for engineering robotics system-of-systems.
