The RobMoSys consortium is continuously updating this wiki to provide early insights. This changelog will help you to track major changes.

• Updated Ecosystem Organization
• Added description on how the SmartMDSD Toolchain supports the RobMoSys Ecosystem Organization in three composition tiers.
• Added a description of the relation between industry 4.0/OPC UA and RobMoSys: OPC UA
• Updated or added roles:
  • Performance Designer
  • Component Supplier
  • Behavior Developer
• Updated Architectural Pattern for Task-Plot Coordination (Robotic Behaviors)
• Added Architectural Pattern for Component Coordination
• Updated Separation of Levels and Separation of Concerns

• Update of the Flexible Navigation Stack
  • The Flexible Navigation Stack is an example of domain models / RobMoSys Composition Tier 2 contents.
  • The page now illustrates more details of the service definitions that are defined in this stack.
  • Description of support for the Flexible Navigation Stack in the SmartSoft World was added: Support for the Flexible Navigation Stack
• Update of the Communication-Pattern Metamodel and view.
  • It now points to specific external documents for the definition of the communication patterns.
• Some areas of the wiki cited unpublished Work [Lotz2017] and [Stampfer2017]. These are two doctoral thesis that are very closely related to RobMoSys. They recently appeared online and the links and references have been updated:
  • Dennis Stampfer. "Contributions to System Composition using a System Design Process driven by Service Definitions for Service Robotics". Dissertation, Technische Universität München, München, Germany, 2018.
  • Alex Lotz, "Managing Non-Functional Communication Aspects in the Entire Life-Cycle of a Component-Based Robotic Software System", Dissertation, Technische Universität München, München, Germany, 2018.

• Added two new wiki pages to illustrate composition
  • Managing Cause-Effect Chains in Component Composition
  • Coordinating Activities and Life Cycle of Software Components
• And according description how this is supported by RobMoSys Tooling (here the SmartMDSD Toolchain):
  • Support for Managing Cause-Effect Chains in Component Composition
  • Support for Coordinating Activities and Life Cycle of Software Components

• Information on Getting Started With Papyrus4Robotics available.
