Y17-13 – Common interfaces

13 DECEMBER 2017

The Methods and Tools Special Interest Group met from 5 pm till 6:30 pm Central European Time.

Agenda

Response to the Errata & Clarifications on Utilities Common Interface specification.

Participants

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (represented by Bill BARRETT), AmsterCHEM (represented by Jasper van BATEN), Bryan Research & Engineering (represented by Michael HLAVINKA), Michel PONS (contractor for CO-LaN as Chief Technology Officer)

Summary

Progress was made in the review of the comments made by Mark STIJNMAN (Shell Global Solutions). Significant modifications were brought to the section on how a PME may understand that the ICapeUtilities::Edit was exited without any actual changes made to the PMC. Hopefully the guidance included in the Errata & Clarifications document will appêar more straightforward.

The review of the comments will be further progressed and hopefully finished at the next conference call on Common Interfaces which is scheduled for January 10, 2018.
