Function:

MOOS has a star-like communications topology. Each application within a MOOS community, a MOOSApp, has a connection to a single “MOOS Database”, called MOOSDB, that lies at the heart of the software suite. All communication happens via this central “server” application, via a publish and subscribe protocol.
