The JAUS Tool Set

The JTS Website has been transferred to a new hosting provider, and we are in the process of restoring from backups. We anticipate being fully operational by 05/01/12

We are currently hosting the latest JTS Source code at http://jaustoolset.googlecode.com

JAUS is an acronym for "Joint Architecture for Unmanned Systems." The JAUS set of standards are published by the Society of Automotive Engineers, International. The JTS is made up of several tools that aid the distributed systems development process. All of the JTS tools are based on the SAE standard AS5684, JAUS Service Interface Definition Language (JSIDL).

Open Source License

JTS is released under the open source BSD license. The JAUS Standards are available from the SAE. Other packages distributed with JTS may have different licenses.

Work Smarter

JTS is designed to support the modeling, analyzing, specifying, implementing, simulating and testing of the protocol for distributed systems. It provides robotic system developers with a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for designing standard JAUS SOA software. This will reduce the learning curve time for new organizations to begin using the Toolset. JTS will automatically generate specification documents and source code for the designs. The generated code will allow robot application developers to integrate their software into the design service architecture, without having to write any SOA layer code directly. Additionally, JTS enables validation of the user designs automatically within the GUI, to ensure the resulting services will be interoperable and produce the desired system behavior.
