R&D Team LeadYour role and responsibilities Distributed software architectures are becoming increasingly important in advanced robotics systems. This thesis offers the opportunity to experimentally evaluate the performance and scalability of a modern robotics framework in the context of time-critical industrial robot control.
In this thesis, the timing behavior of ROS 2/DDS will be experimentally characterized using representative distributed industrial robot-controller workloads. Selected ROS 2 executor configurations, DDS configurations and scheduling approaches will be evaluated while varying computational workload, communication frequency and the scale of the distributed system. The objective is to determine the deterministic operating and scalability envelope of ROS 2/DDS for distributed industrial robot control. In doing so, the thesis will also evaluate the suitability and limitations of an open-source robotics framework for time-critical industrial controller applications.
