Excerpt from Nasa/Nbs Standard Reference Model for Telerobot Control System Architecture (Nasrem)
Hierarchical control is not new. It has been used by military, government, and business bureaucracies for centuries. The application of hierarchical control to real-time computer control systems is a recent development which is most mature in industrial computer integrated manufacturing systems. Real-time hierarchical control concepts are also now being implemented in advanced aircraft flight controllers and modern smart weapons systems.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate world of telerobotics, focusing on the NASA/NBS Standard Reference Model (NASREM) architecture designed for the Space Station Telerobot Control System. It offers a comprehensive exploration of the control system's functional requirements and high-level specifications, serving as a guide for understanding and developing telerobotic systems. Grounded in concepts from artificial intelligence and control theory, the author presents a hierarchical control structure that integrates goal decomposition, planning, and sensory processing. The book delves into the architecture's three main components: Task Decomposition, World Modeling, and Sensory Processing, illustrating how they interact to enable robots to perceive, plan, and act in complex environments. Readers will gain insights into the different levels of the control hierarchy, from low-level servo control to high-level mission planning, and understand how information flows between these levels. The book also explores the crucial role of human-robot interaction, describing operator and programmer interfaces that allow for supervisory control, monitoring, and system modification. Ultimately, this book provides a valuable resource for comprehending the complexities of telerobotic control systems and their potential to revolutionize space exploration and other domains where robots operate in challenging environments. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
