A360 is Automation Anywhere’s cloud-based automation platform designed to make business processes more efficient. It’s known for its user-friendly interface, which allows both technical and non-technical users to use it effectively. Automation 360 is versatile, offering a range of tools to automate tasks, manage complex workflows, and integrate various applications. It empowers users to create customized solutions for their specific needs. Being cloud-based it ensures scalability, security, and real-time updates, making it a top choice in the fast-paced digital world. As demand for A360 rises, having a structured way to develop bots becomes crucial. The paper introduces the “A360 Bot Framework” as a guiding approach for bot developments. This framework ensures consistency and scalability, especially when working with both professional developers and non-technical users. It outlines key elements like setting up work folders, managing logs, dealing with errors, and ensuring secure bot execution. Ultimately, the “A360 Bot Framework” is presented as a foundational structure that enhances consistency, resiliency, and development efficiency. By following predefined practices and templates, bot developers can mitigate risks and streamline debugging processes. This framework accelerates the bot development lifecycle, allowing developers to focus on specific functionalities and value-added features. The research paper aims to provide insights into the benefits of adopting the A360 Bot Framework and its potential to revolutionize A360 bot development practices, leading to more efficient and effective automation solutions.展开更多

By leveraging subtasks as reusable and maintainable functions, users can efficiently develop customized high-quality automation solutions. Additionally, the paper introduces the retry framework, which allows for the automatic retrying of subtasks in the event of system or unknown exceptions. This framework enhances efficiency and reduces the manual effort required to retrigger bots. The A360 Subtask and Retry Framework templates provide valuable assistance to both professional and citizen developers, improving code quality, maintainability, and the overall efficiency and resiliency of automation solutions.展开更多

Legged robots are multi-input multi-output with multiple end-e ector systems. Therefore,the mechanical design and control framework are challenging issues. This paper reviews the development of type synthesis and behavior control on legged robots; introduces the hexapod robots developed in our research group based on the proposed type synthesis method. The control framework for legged robots includes data driven layer,robot behavior layer and robot execution layer. Each layer consists several components which are explained in details. Finally,various experiments were conducted on several hexapod robots. The summarization of the type synthesis and behavior control design constructed in this paper would provide a unified platform for communications and references for future advancement for legged robots.展开更多

The architecture is based on the framework of Open Robot Control Software at KTH （OROCOS@KTH）, which is also discussed and evaluated to navigate indoor efficiently, a new algorithm named door-like-exit detection is proposed which employs 2D feature oft. door and extracts key points of pathway from the raw data of a laser scanner. As a hybrid architecture, it is decomposed into several basic components which can be classified as either deliberative or reactive. Each component can concurrently execute and communicate with another. It is expansible and transferable and its components are reusable.展开更多
