Abstract. Open systems are becoming increasingly important in a variety of distributed, networked computer applications. Their characteristics, such as agent diversity, heterogenei...
We have developed a model-based, distributed architecture that integrates diverse components in a system designed for lunar and planetary surface operations: an astronaut’s spac...
