Introduction to DSS

Question

DSS is a lightweight, service oriented runtime that combines key aspects of traditional Web-based architecture with pieces from Web Services to provide a highly flexible yet simple, application model for writing robotics applications. A primary goal of DSS is to promote simplicity, interoperability, and loose coupling.

 

DSS is built using CCR and uses HTTP and DSSP as the foundation for interacting with services. DSSP is a lightweight SOAP-based protocol that extends the current Web architecture by enabling manipulation of structured state and for an event model driven by changes to the structured state. DSSP is used for manipulating and subscribing to services and hence compliments HTTP in providing a lightweight, state-driven application model.

Hey, thanks for the links, however, some of them are now dead, such as coding patterns.  :)  Can the OP, if he is around, please fix it :).  Thanks!
