European Robotics Forum (ERF2012) Workshop
The workshop will be held on the European Robotics Forum (ERF2012) in Odense, Denmark, March 7th, 2012.Title
Workshop on Models and Languages in Robotics for Academia and IndustryMotivation
Currently there are many academic European projects such as BRICS and PROTEUS whose aim is to establish model−based development within robotics. These nascent e.fforts could provide the nucleus for an academia−industry cooperative effort to foment the use and development of Domain Specic Languages and Model−Based Development software, methodologies and standards. The precedent for such cooperation is AUTOSAR (AUTomotive Open System ARchitecture) initiative from the automotive industry.We would like to present not only the above mentioned academic projects but also any other academic approaches and industry efforts in the field who wish to contribute in an open discussion with interested industry parties. The objective is to discuss what we as a robotic community have achieved at the moment and where and what can or should be done in the immediate to near future in order to create a viable initiative in the European robotics community.
We would like to invite speakers from academia and industry to submit an abstract of what they would like to present and discuss at the workshop.
During the workshop each presenter will have up to 15 minutes for presentation.
After the presentation we will have an open forum to discuss the presentations in the context of the workshop.
The workshop seeks contributions in two key areas:
- Sales pitch for a modeling approach that solves a problem. This format is suggested for academic presenters.
- Problem statement where modeling might used to solve a problem. This format is suggested for industry presenters.
