MecaTeam Framework: An Infrastructure for the Development of Soccer Agents for Simulated Robots
Orivaldo Santana, Christina Chávez, Augusto Loureiro da Costa · 2008
This paper presents the MecaTeam framework, a solution to reduce the effort on developing new soccer teams of robots for the 2D simulation category of the RoboCup. MecaTeam is an object-oriented framework based on features of two robot soccer teams: the MecaTeam 2006 and Uva Trilearn. The architecture of the proposed framework is presented and aspects of its use are discussed. Besides facilitating the development of new teams, the use of the MecaTeam framework may decrease the impact of changes in chunks of related code. Finally, the MecaTeam framework can be used by new researchers interested in simulated robots for soccer games.
