The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

ROS: an open-source Robot Operating System (2009, background): “…meet these challenges, many robotics researchers, including ourselves, have previously created a wide variety of frameworks to manage complexity and facilitate rapid prototyping of software for experiments, resulting in the many robotic software systems currently used in academia and industry [1].”
Massively multi-robot simulation in stage (2008, background): “A survey and comparison of robot development platforms, including a limited discussion of simulators, is given in Kramer and Schultz (2007).”
Reducing the Barrier to Entry of Complex Robotic Software: a MoveIt! Case Study (2014, methodology): “In [17]’s survey of nine open source robotic development environments, a collection of metrics was used which included documentation and GUIs, but no mention was made of setup time, barrier to entry, or automated conﬁguration.”
Swarm robotics: a review from the swarm engineering perspective (2013, background): “For a survey of various simulation platforms in robotics see Kramer and Scheutz (2007).”
