We started work on ROS in November 2007.
A lot has happened since then and we believe that it is now time to build the next generation ROS platform.

While this article covers proposals and related experiments for building a new middleware specifically around ZeroMQ, it also generally captures the idea of building a new middleware out of a few component libraries.
This strategy of composing existing libraries into a middleware is in contrast to wrapping up an existing end-to-end middleware which provides most if not all of the middleware needs for ROS out of the box.

In ROS there are two types of Remote Procedure Call (RPC) primitives.
ROS Services are basic request-response style RPCs, while ROS Actions additionally are preemptible and offer feedback while requests are being processed.

The launch system in ROS is responsible for helping the user describe the configuration of their system and then execute it as described. The configuration of the system includes what programs to run, where to run them, what arguments to pass them, and ROS specific conventions which make it easy to reuse components throughout the system by giving them each different configurations. Also, because the launch system is the process (or the set of processes) which executes the user's processes, it is responsible for monitoring the state of the processes it launched, as well as reporting and/or reacting to changes in the state of those processes.

In summary, all secure processes must use an enclave that contains the runtime security artifacts unique to that enclave, yet each process may not necessarily have a unique enclave.

- How does the Deadline policy take into account the additional overhead of ROS (such as deserialization) when determining if a deadline was missed?
- As a simplification it is not going to attempt to take into account any ROS overhead. A deadline will be considered missed if the rmw layer does not receive a message by the deadline and not if the user application on top of ROS does not receive it by the deadline. A new deadline policy could be added later that takes this into account.

+- Why will the callback not get called for every status change event instead of potentially combining events of the same type?
- Adding this functionality would require an additional buffer that would be used to store multiple events between servicing them. Additionally, the DDS API lends itself better to only being informed of the latest change and would require a realtime response to status change events so as to not miss a single event. This is not a one way door and we could change this later to allow buffering events without breaking backwards compatibility.
- How do these QoS policies impact Actions and Services?
- The initial implementation does not support Actions and Services as there are more complex subtleties to how these concepts natively support these QoS features. In the future work section below we explore some ways that Services could implement these policies.
