Robotic systems are becoming pervasive and adopted in increasingly many domains, such
as manufacturing, healthcare, and space exploration. To this end, engineering software has …

As autonomous robots continue to be deployed near people, robots need to be able to
explain their actions. In this article, we focus on organizing and representing complex tasks …

Robotic systems map unknown terrain and collect scientific relevant data of foreign planets.
Currently, pilots from Earth steer these rovers on Moon and Mars surfaces via teleoperation …

This paper was initially intended to report on the outcome of the twice postponed
demonstration mission of the ARCHES project. Due to the global COVID pandemic, it has …

Mobile robotics will play a key role in future space, ocean and deep sea exploration
activities. Besides the actual development of the robotic systems, the different ways of …

Robotic systems are becoming pervasive and adopted in increasingly many domains, such
as manufacturing, healthcare, and space exploration. To this end, engineering software has …

As we become more competent developers of artificially intelligent systems, the level of
deployment and associated implicit trust in these systems will increase in kind. While this is …

Robot task programming often leads to inefficient plans, as opportunities for parallelization
and precomputation are usually not exploited by the programmer. This inefficiency is often …

Currently one of the most important challenges is to bring robots out of factory floors to work
alongside humans. Because these environments are characterized by a very large variety of …

Mobile robotics will play a key role in future space exploration activities. Besides the actual
development of the robotic systems, the different ways of commanding those systems, using …
