This paper describes the architectural principles of a distributed agent-based platform for the remote supervision of robotic manipulation tasks. The main contributions of this paper are that the real-time constraints can be encapsulated within the local robotic controller through the methods of compliant control, and that such low-level API is the foundation for distributed applications that are evolvable, survivable, and that can guarantee stability and compliance even in the face of failures and lack of QoS provisioning. We discuss our experience with a prototype implementation and outline future research directions.
