EdNotes: Persistence Is a Virtue


By Edward J. Correia
May 23, 2007 — 
I've been persistent lately about using this space to report new projects. This time it's actually about persistence, or rather, the Open System Engineering Environment Project, which will provide a persistence layer for "access control, advanced version control and dynamic object models... while reducing the heavy burden on applications that such capabilities normally entail," according to the proposal.

This project's seven initial committers are from Boeing, with interested parties from Lockheed Martin, Rockwell Collins and the European Aeronautics and Space Company (EADS). The proposal describes OSEE as an "environment that supports lean engineering across the full product life cycle." If anyone knows the product life cycle, these companies do.

The vision for this proposal "finds concrete grounding" through daily use by Boeing's so-called Subject Matter Experts, who develop software for the company's aircraft. Direct involvement with OSEE allows project feedback to be incorporated in real time.

Some of the application framework's key capabilities will include a dynamic and strongly typed artifact model, bidirectional traceability, version control with multilevel branching, subject- and object-based access control, a searching API, remote service, rules and scheduling frameworks, and utilities for encryption, database and Jini.

There also will be a testing environment for Java, C and C++ that will provide a common interface for functional and unit testing, and an action-tracking system for change management.

The target date for source code to be available to the public is October, with general availability in Jan. 2008.

What more can we do? FEEDBACK
