Reconfigurable software is highly desired for automated machine tool control systems for low-cost products and short time to market. In this paper, we propose a software architectu...
The objective of the CyberScout project is to develop an autonomous surveillance and reconnaissance system using a network of all-terrain vehicles. In this paper, we focus on two f...
