The Three Dimensions of ROS 2 Middleware

arXiv:2607.01304v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: ROS 2 (Robot Operating System 2) has emerged as the de facto standard for modern robot software development, with middleware implementations such as the Data Distribution Service (DDS) and Zenoh forming the core infrastructure for distributed robotic communication. Despite their architectural flexibility, these middleware systems exhibit structural limitations, particularly under dynamic and resource-constrained wireless environments. This paper pr...
