Something I forgot to mention in my previous post: please feel free to
start technical discussions about the software core of MBDyn. For
example, on the three problem items you mention in your paper. I cite:
· it does not support event-driven solution (hybrid solution) yet;
· it is not consistently thread-safe, thus preventing some potential
evolution directions;
· its data structure, in some portions, suffers from limited and
unevenly distributed modularity and abstraction.
These are issues that are very relevant to robotics software also, not
just on the dynamic simulation area, but also for distributed
"intelligent agents".
