|
| · |
Simulation of external systems (detection devices, sensors, radars)
connected to I/Security servers.
|
| · | Met 1
year time constraint.
|
| · |
Description: I/CAD product is able to centralize alarms and targets
triggered by external systems like detection devices, sensors or radars.
In the simulation environment, it was necessary to be able to simulate
those equipments. In order to achieve that goal, we developed new parts
in I/Simulator that had the capabilities to replace the real devices and
managed communications with I/Security servers.
|
| · |
Technologies used: C#, windows forms, .NET 2.0/3.5 framework, SQL
Server, Oracle, MSM Queues, XML.
|
| · |
Operations: Designing architecture of the project. Implementing most
