Application enabler technology for factory automation (ESSI Experiment 10070, AEFTA)
نویسندگان
چکیده
The AEFTA (Application Enabler Technology for Factory Automation) experiment, which involves Digital Equipment Corporation, Politecnico di Torino and SYCO, with staff of seven, develops a factory automation product using BASEstar Open (1990) and object technology, notably OMT (Rumbaugh et al. 1991), G++ (Menga et al. 1993) and C++. The goal of the application experiment is to verify if object oriented (OO) technology, through the reuse opportunities which it offers, improves productivity and quality, in the factory automation context.

Measuring Reuse in an Object Oriented Process
This paper presents a number of results about reuse in a real life project. . The project, called AEFTA, develops a factory automation application (a FMS cell controller) using commercially available tools: DEC BASEstar Open a shop-floor distributed system for application integration; and SYCO G++ an object-oriented environment with a large library of C++ classes (data structures, GUI building,...
متن کاملUsing object oriented technology to measure a software process
This paper reports on how object oriented concepts and technology have been applied to measure a software process in the ESSI AEFTA (Application Enabler Technology for Factory Automation) application experiment. Measurement is considered as a full scale project consisting of 1) modelling the software process, 2) defining goals for the project, 3) formalizing goals in process measures defined on...

متن کاملMeasurement processes are software, too
Software process improvement and measurement are closely linked: measures are the only way to prove improvements in a process. Despite this link, and the interest in process improvement, measurement is not widely applied in industrial software production. This paper describes a method designed to guide the definition, implementation and operation of measurement processes. The method, which buil...
