Reusability and Modifiability in Robotics Software (Extended Version)
<|reference_start|>Reusability and Modifiability in Robotics Software (Extended Version): We show the design of the software of the microcontroller unit of a weeding robot based on the Process Control architectural style and design patterns. The design consists of 133 modules resulting from using 8 design patterns for a total of 30 problems. As a result the design yields more reusable components and an easily modifiable and extensible program. Design documentation is also presented. Finally, the implementation (12 KLOC of C++ code) is empirically evaluated to prove that the design does not produce an inefficient implementation.<|reference_end|>
