Apply Integrated Logistics Support (ILS) to weapon equipment can efficiently improve equipment's automation and digital level. ILS needs support of various integrated support systems, which have demands for data editing. Nowadays, most of data editing software used in these systems are customized and provide a form-based editing approach, which becomes an obstacle to carry out ILS. This paper brings...
In this paper, we analyze the three bottlenecks that limit the large-scene in virtual reality applications and especially in the Web-based applications. We also analyze the technical characteristics and defects of the LOD strategy and then propose a novel partitioning model. Based on the proposed model and XML, we present a scheme to overcome the three bottlenecks regarding CPU, memory and network...
The necessity to handle the increasing complexity of digital circuits has led to the usage of more and more abstract design paradigms. In particular, the Electronic System Level (ESL) has become an area of active research and industrial application, especially via SystemC and its Transaction Level Modeling (TLM) framework. Additionally, the usage of formal specification languages such as the Unified...
Spatiotemporal information and application have received considerable attention. Spatiotemporal information is often imprecise or uncertain; therefore, the establishment of a reasonable and effective fuzzy spatiotemporal data model is vital. The traditional tool-based modeling method cannot meet the needs of fuzzy spatiotemporal data modeling. XML has become the standard of Web data representation...
Plant engineering workflow consists of different phases and engineering disciplines. Dynamic process simulation can be utilized to mitigate risks and improve quality of design in the engineering workflow. Earlier and more extensive utilization of simulation is proposed in this paper using an integrated simulation-assisted engineering workflow. In this paper, basic automation design and tests are conducted...
Data Warehouse is one of the powerful tools for analytical processing. XML on the other hand is widely used to handle data in web environment. XML to data warehouse integration is a subject of interest for the business organization to use the semi-structured XML for analytical processing. However, in this research work we approached the problem in reverse direction. Here we generate equivalent XML...
The modeling and simulation (M&S) landscape for systems engineers is complex. This complexity is due to a variety of factors including the diversity of system components over a range of domains which are modeled at multiple scales using varied modeling formalisms. There is a need to chain system models developed using varying formalisms, resolutions or scales. An ideal Multiformalism, Multiresolution,...
Many real-world situations are more easily represented using multilevel models that abandon traditional two level instantiation. In business process management, multilevel modeling allows for the explicit representation of the interdependencies between the processes at the different hierarchy levels within an organization. Furthermore, multilevel modeling allows modelers to capture the variability...
Lossless data exchange is one of the recent investigated paths for engineering process improvement with respect to engineering process quality and efficiency. AutomationML is one data exchange format in a broad range of modern XML based data formats developed for the improvement of engineering processes of manufacturing systems. In this paper the applicability of AutomationML is proven for transferring...
For manufacturing industry seamless workflows along the whole product lifecycle are crucial for sustainable success. Although the integration of all used systems to a single supersystem is not reasonable, the integration of data is essential. This contribution introduces a model-based concept to integrate data elements of distributed data systems and sources to one virtual database. Specific view...
Model-Based Testing (MBT) is a method for automating software testing and improving fault detection by using an abstracted model of the system under test to systematically generate and execute test cases. One of the main challenges in MBT is the efficient locating of fundamental causes of errors, which can be achieved using root cause analysis. As MBT is being applied to many diverse domains using...
Business Process Model and Notation(BPMN) is more important in the business process and creating functional models, and is a standard for OMG, which becomes popular in various organizations and in education. Researches related to software testing based on models are prominent. Although most researches use the UML model in software testing, not many researches use the BPMN Model in creating test cases...
the increasing amounts of interesting data stored in the XML format is the most challenging issue for BI community, thus it is desirable to successfully extract, store and integrate this large sources of information special purpose systems called “data warehouse” for further analysis and decision-making. However, compared with the well structured relational databases of a company, XML data presents...
Proper modeling concepts are essential towards the effective design of XML based Data Warehouse (DW) system in presence of semi-structured multidimensional data. From the methodological point of view, such model should facilitate the representation of multidimensional XML data and the associated structures in order to perform OLAP in XML based DW. Thus a systematic transformation mechanism is essential...
Data interchange on the Web is a common task today and XML has been the de-facto standard of information representation and exchange over the Web. Also information imperfection is inherent in the real-world applications. Fuzzy information has been extensively investigated in the context of database models. Also fuzzy XML modeling recently receives more attention. In order to present fuzzy data from...
Complex and heterogeneous power system automation environment requires a novel approach for enabling interoperability and interchangeability of multi-vendor devices and applications. OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) represents the state-of-the-art middleware technology for industrial automation domain. Moreover, the OPC UA is one of the potential middleware mappings for the next edition of the IEC...
Geographic data consist of location and extent or degree, which are not hold up by a standardized modeling language like Unified Modeling Language (UML). Here, development of broad standard data models presents an interesting challenge since the level of complexity becomes high, and the resultant database schema becomes unusable. In this paper, an attempt is made to address the need of well documented...
The paper addresses the problem of XML document adaptation - transforming a document valid against an old version of an XML schema to a document valid against the new version of the schema. We propose a solution using a conceptual model, where the relationships between the old and new versions are specified declaratively. We focus on those scenarios, where mere between the structures of the schemas...
IEC 61131-3 is an open standard that provides guidelines for programmable logic controllers and control systems. The standard defines specifications for control system programming languages, both textual and graphical. A control system application developed using these languages can go through several changes over the course of the project's life-cycle. While differences in textual programs can be...
This paper proposes an Extensible document-based model Web engineering approach. First, we propose a document model for multilingual composite documents. Building on work by librarians that lead to the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR), our document model gathers all versions of a document in a tree structure. It describes the relations between a digital document's various versions,...
