CAPE-OPEN UPDATE, Volume 10
CAPE-OPEN UPDATE is a publication of the CAPE-OPEN Laboratories Network (CO-LaN), a non-profit consortium for the development of the CAPE-OPEN standard.
USER TIPS
Remember to visit the standard specification section of CO-LaN web site to better understand both the
method and the opportunity of implementing CO standards. If you are a CAPE software developer, you will find
CO
testers and the CO standards documentation. If you are a CAPE software user, you will find guidance on the use of CAPE
tools in a CO-compliant environment. There is a great deal of information on the web site to guide you and offer insight.
Feel free to contact a CO-LaN member to help you focus your activities. These people can answer questions, discuss the
philosophy of CO standards, direct you to CO standards experts, and give you a glimpse of current and future activities.
=======================================================
CURRENT ISSUES
The CO-LaN Special Interest Groups (SIGs), are up and running to refine existing standards, expand them as needed, and define new
standards. The current SIGs, SIG leaders, and current focus areas are:
-
INTEROPERABILITY - Peter Banks, BP. Interoperability Support for testing software interoperability.
-
THERMODYNAMICS - Jens Schmidt, Dow
.
For implementation, maintenance, and management of existing interfaces. Expansion into polymers and solids.
UNIT OPERATIONS - Marcel Van Maasdam, Shell Global Solutions. For implementation, maintenance, and management of existing interfaces.
Expansion into dynamics.
