AbstractRobotic systems are complex, software intensive and heterogeneous composite systems. Software systems engineering and system integration is still a major challenge in robotics. We describe how component based software engineering (CBSE), model-driven software development (MDSD) and domain-specific languages (DSLs) for variability management complement each other in addressing the robotics software challenge. We outline how these approaches pave the way towards a software business ecosystem in robotics. We put a focus onto challenges still being considered as open and worth being addressed next.

This chapter provides an overview of the area of service composition. It does so by introducing a generic architecture for service composition and using this architecture to discuss some salient concepts and techniques. The architecture is also used as a framework for providing a critical view into a number of languages, standardization efforts, and tools related to service composition emanating both from academia and industry and to classify them in terms of the concepts and techniques that they incorporate or support (for example, orchestration and dynamic service selection). Finally, the chapter discusses some trends in service-oriented software systems engineering pertaining to service composition.
