 # dls2-barebone
-This repository contains the official implementation of _D. Wildgrube Bertol, G. Fink, M. Marchitto, Y. Nisticò, M. Pestarino, and C. Semini, “DLS2: A distributed microcomponent-based robotic software architecture”_, which is currently under review.
+This repository provides the implementation of the paper **D. Wildgrube Bertol, G. Fink, M. Marchitto, Y. Nisticò, M. Pestarino, and C. Semini, “DLS2: A distributed microcomponent-based robotic software architecture”**, which has been accepted to Results in Engineering, and it is available at https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rineng.2026.112048.
 
-It provides a reusable, buildable base for DLS2 robot control applications. It brings together the DLS2 framework, the Robotlib robot interface, the pinocchio-gluecode, RViz visualization support, and a ROS 2 interface for shared message definitions and network settings.
