Detailed Description

The Component is the base (abstract) class for any specific project implementation.

The Component is the object loaded by Total99 interface for setting up the project and the experiment

The subclasses of Component will represent the schema or the template for a specific kind of experiment. For example, GAComponent implement the basic logic for an evolutionary experiment, while the iCubSimulator implement not really an experiment but the simulation of an iCub robot on which you can play with YARP
