This paper presents an industrial platform for the testing of power converters for variable speed electrical drives at the end of the production line. For this purpose, the converter under test does not supply a real electrical machine but another power electric converter acting as a load emulator that regenerates the power into the grid. The testing platform is intended to emulate all necessary tests...
This paper presents the implementation of a Virtual Instrumentation (VI) based system which is used for remote monitoring of biogas production activities. The proposed measurement approach was designed and is used by students during Measurement and Instrumentation lectures. It combines hardware and software knowledge while allowing the users to interact with a domain of great interest — biogas production...
Production plants within manufacturing and process industries are becoming more and more complex systems. For a safe and demand sufficient production the automation system of a production plant is mission critical. Therefore the correct functioning and engineering of the automation system is essential. Nowadays the use of a virtual commissioning step before deploying the automation software on the...
Numerous software development practices suggest updating the test code whenever the production code is changed. However, previous studies have shown that co-evolving test and production code is generally a difficult task that needs to be thoroughly investigated. In this paper we perform a study that, following a mixed methods approach, investigates fine-grained co-evolution patterns of production...
In mechatronics engineering the execution of experiments and tests is an important activity during development of new products and maintenance of released products. Planning and execution of experiments and tests is an essential cost and time factor. To keep the development time short it is necessary to have well-managed processes in the test department and to plan, organize, source out or execute,...
Europa has launched multiple initiatives and research projects to remain competitive in a globalized world and keep industry and manufacturing on-shore. Funded by EU and member countries, project ARROWHEAD[1] focuses research and innovation for collaborative automation using interoperable services for smart production, to improve quality, efficiency, flexibility and cost competiveness. This includes...
Developing from IC and PCB, the SIP (system in a package) has already been one of the most important development directions of future electronic system; therefore, we desiderate the study of testing design and test method. Being incapable of adding circuits for testable design, the SIP can only design test method and process according to the existing resources. Test method in this paper takes into...
In China, production safety supervision is greatly valued. Production Safety Gridding Supervision System (PSGSS) came into being. Document processing and Information Push are primarily requirements of the users and core functions of the system. In this paper, these two techniques were analyzed, discussed and implementation.
This paper describes a statistical approach for online yield analysis for multisite testing of highly reliable automotive ICs as well as the implementation of the system for testing mostly analog circuits. The core of the approach is the yield analysis of the different sites based on statistical measures. The system has been implemented as part of the production environment of Elmos Semiconductor...

The production of semiconductor assembly and testing is wide variety, and the cost of produce time of switch between different products is not the same, which could lead to its utilization is lower, production cycle longer. Thus lot release control plays an important role for improving utilization and shorter production cycle for semiconductor assembly and testing system. In this paper, we modeled...
As the scale and complexity of electronic designs increase, Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools become much more sophisticated and have to face incredible challenges to keep peace with increasing technology and time-to-market pressures. EDA tools have to own a lot of quality attributes such as performance, scalability, usability as well as functionality. Testing of EDA tools is not about avoiding...
Lean Product Development features a customer focused and knowledge based approach to eliminate the waste of design reiteration in new product development. Basic Elements of Lean Product Development are introduced first to highlight the process. Risks are managed with tools to anticipate risk, address the risks with robust design, apply accelerated testing and failure analysis to understand limits...
Software projects have usually a lot of software engineering data available in different kinds of repositories. This data can be mined and used for software process improvement purposes. In general, agile methodologies emphasize reflection, making problems visible, and learning from the past. As the human mind is powerful in interpreting visual representations, visualizations could help in recognizing...
Software is a generic term for organized collections of computer data and instructions; it is amalgamation of machine understandable instructions that preside over the processor of computer to perform itemized operations. The importance of software accompanies the effect of its malleability towards software development life cycle. Antecedent models such as Prototyping model, Incremental model, waterfall...
The paper examines basic requirements for tools developed for verification of correct work of electronic trading systems by applying High Volume Automated Testing (HiVAT) methods and analyzes the applicability of such tools during production operation of trading systems.
OEMs use test automation tools in the various phases of the product lifecycle. Internal test tool development efforts are often duplicated multiple times across the enterprise, sometimes within the context of the same project, increasing development and support costs as well as increasing time to market. Using a common base of COTS tools and a standard architecture/approach for testing across the...
This paper is following the development of real-time applications for marine operations focusing on modern modeling and simulation methods and presents a common framework model for multi-purpose underwater sensors used for offshore exploration. It's addressing deployment challenges of underwater sensor networks “safe-nets” using remote operated vehicles (ROV).
Game is a kind of software with goal to provide entertainment. However, during the real game development practice, simply adopting the software development life cycle (SDLC) is not enough, as the developers face several challenges during its life cycle. To address the problem, game development uses a kind of specific approach called game development life cycle (GDLC) to direct the game development...
