CO-LaN published two requests for bids for the development of software testers for the proposed version 1.1 of the Thermo & Phys Props
standard. The CO 1.1 Thermo Interface Specification Draft is a proposed refactoring of the approved CAPE-OPEN Thermo interface.
This refactoring makes the specification cleaner and easier to use. The testers will be used for experimenting with the specification
before its official release. See in the Requests for Bids page. |
