An Information System Architecture for Robot Cell Programming

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NATO ASI F,volume 49))

Abstract

Programming a robot cell is a complex problem implying contributions from several scientific disciplines with a major need of integration. More than a functional integration, the problem is mainly one of information integration. The Information System is, therefore, the key element for integration of all components of the programming system.

A conceptual structure for the Information System is proposed and some preliminary implementation results discussed with special emphasis on the interface between cell programming and upper level aspects of the CIM system. Some guidelines for future work are presented.
