ControlShell: A Real-Time Software Framework

Abstract

We are creating a new paradigm for building and maintaining complex real-time software systems for the control of moving mechanical systems. This objective is being met through the simultaneous development of both a powerful software environment and cogent motion planning and control capabilities. Our research concentrates on three key areas: (1) Building an innovative, powerful real-time software framework; (2) Implementing new distributed control architectures for intelligent mechanical systems; and (3) Developing distribution architectures and new algorithms for the computationally hard motion planning and direction problem.
