NASA/NBS (National Aeronautics and Space Administration/National Bureau of Standards) standard reference model for telerobot control system architecture (NASREM)
The document describes the NASA Standard Reference Model (NASREM) Architecture for the Space Station Telerobot Control System. It defines the functional requirements and high level specifications of the control system for the NASA space Station document for the functional specification, and a guideline for the development of the control system architecture, of the 10C Flight Telerobot Servicer. The NASREM telerobot control system architecture defines a set of standard modules and interfaces which facilitates software design, development, validation, and test, and make possible the integration of telerobotics software from a wide variety of sources. Standard interfaces also provide the software hooks necessary to incrementally upgrade future Flight Telerobot Systems as new capabilities develop in computer science, robotics, and autonomous system control
The 2014 International Planning Competition: Progress and Trends
We review the 2014 International Planning Competition (IPC-2014), the eighth
in a series of competitions starting in 1998. IPC-2014 was held in three separate
parts to assess state-of-the-art in three prominent areas of planning research: the
deterministic (classical) part (IPCD), the learning part (IPCL), and the probabilistic
part (IPPC). Each part evaluated planning systems in ways that pushed the edge of
existing planner performance by introducing new challenges, novel tasks, or both.
The competition surpassed again the number of competitors than its predecessor,
highlighting the competition’s central role in shaping the landscape of ongoing
developments in evaluating planning systems
