The strategy was to develop a software component
which would integrate the older/legacy instruments
with the new complex one. The first phase was
to completely understand both the legacy and the
new system. It was initiated with the onsite visit
of the Wipro engineers for 12 weeks. This Knowledge
Acquisition Phase (KAP) involved demonstrations
of existing products, discussion of domain terminologies
with domain experts and user representatives and
study of technical literature.
Technical study was narrowed down to the Analyzer
Complex. Wipro engineers were provided access
to the Rose design models of various components.
In absence of any formal design, design had to
be inferred from the models alone. This proposed
design addressed all the client’s pain areas.
The main tasks of these legacy instrument interface
components are
 |
Auto administration
of all the instruments |
|
Configuration services
|
|
Reformatting test results
data |
|
Broadcasting test order
data to legacy instruments |
