ROLES
In the Simulation League, there are three committees, technical,
organizing and simulator maintainance committees. Roles of the committees
are as follows:
- Technical Committee:
decides the direction of the simulation league. It leads discussion
about changes of the simulation league on the mailing list, sum
up the discussion, and propose candidates changes of rules, regulation
and simulators.
- Organizing Committee:
manages yearly RoboCup competition. It decides actual changes
used in the yearly RoboCup competition. The changes should be
selected from candidates proposed by Technical Committee. The
committee also should decide detailed parameters, new evaluation
schemes, and other all things in the RoboCup competition.
- Maintenance Committee:
Maintains and extends the Simulator. The extentions to the
simulator are directed by the Technical Commitee, however the
Maintenance Committee is free to make changes that do not
impact on the simulation itself.
