Hello,

We agreed in the last RUG meeting that everyone would think of a topic to present at the virtual RUG meetings. So I want to suggest a topic myself:

Last week we had Dr. Peter Hoffmann at our site in order to give us a rapid deployment for the Harmony process. The aim was to introduce us to the process, use a small project for doing it and starting the work for the handbook. All in all the rapid deployment was done in 2 sessions (one 7 days, one 3 days).

I do not want to present everything Mr. Hoffmann told us, it would take too much time and it is his presentation anyway...

I think it might be interesting to present some kind of work report instead: show the highlights (decomposed system, subsystem hand-off into another model, reintegration into system model), the animated system, the created artifacts, etc.

Maybe the forum can decide if this is interesting enough...

Best regards,

Jürgen

VERYinteresting. I hear what you say about not treading on toes, but it is from a user perspective!

Great Idea Juergen!

Does anyone else have any ideas for presentations at the Virtual User Group Meetings?

Hello,

after last weeks user conference I think there is a lot of new energy to drive the virtual user meetings. I specifically wondered why there are so few suggestions for topics for the virtual user group meetings. Maybe because everybody is saving up for the one BIG presentation? While they are needed of course I think a lot of people would actually like to see use solutions to the more day-to-day problems.

So I could offer a presentation about using the CppUnit class test framework in our models:
While it is quite a simple concept it certainly has its uses, especially when implementing a lot of interfaces (as we do). We have communication over various serial lines as well as over the MilBUS. To encode/decode a message there is a lot of bit-shifting and -masking involved. To test the implementation I use CppUnit tests, which are also a great way to do regression tests if the protocols change. Those test classes will be generated via a VBA script and the developer only has to fill in the actual test code.
The presentation would introduce the basic concepts and show the use in a demo (I really hope without glitches ). I would also offer the example model including the CppUnit package and the VBA script for download.

What do you think?

Jürgen

PS: Maybe we should also call for topics outside this forum, on the public channels...

Hi Jürgen, It was good to meet you at the RUG.

Yes, your presentation sounds interesting and I can think of a few folk here who would like to attend a virtual meeting with that as a topic.

We're currently working through the requirements traceability aspects of Harmony (as per the OpenSpace discussion last week) and I could probably offer a summary of where we've got to (what Rhapsody Gateway tells you about coverage, how the opcons trace from subsystems to system, how we're linking with the non-functional requirements). Hopefully we could use the ideas on improving dialogue with the audience to get a useful online discussion -- I suppose it might start with just you and us talking, but it would be good if others could chip in.

Hi Juergen, Charlie:

Great ideas! We are having discussions internally right now about having a second Virtual User Group meeting on July 18. Would that work for everyone?

Does anyone have any other topics they would be interested in presenting?

We are also thinking of possibly doing a Pisces demo in this session, would all of you be interested in attending that?

Best Regards,

Jeffrey Vocell

Unfortunately I'm on vacation July 18. Back at work July 24. If the July 18 date goes ahead I expect someone from here might attend, but presenting would be more difficult.

What ideas for making the sessions more interactive (as we discussed at the RUG at Schloss-Schwarzenfeld) should be introduced to the next virtual RUG?

Yes, demos of forthcoming releases are always welcome -- help us to understand what the bullet points on the roadmap slides really mean!

Hi Charlie,
Would Thursday, July 13th or Tuesday, July 25th work for you?

Hi Carmel,
Tuesday 25 July would work for me, but it is then in the English holiday season and you may find that others cannot attend. Perhaps you could set up some polls here for dates that I-Logix could manage?
Not sure when Germany is on holiday - perhaps Juergen could post about dates?
Regards, Charlie

Both good topics. Both get my vote.

Hello,

as for the holidays in Germany: There are not the same all over Germany but the south (Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg) is on holidays from about 31. Juli to 15. September. Main season is surely the August.

I'm on vacation from 24. Juli to 4. August.

Hello Everyone -

We are considering moving the next Virtual User Group meeting back to the first or second week in September due to vacation conflicts.

Would either of these weeks work for everyone?

Best Regards,

Jeff Vocell

Thank you for the replies.

We are tentatively scheduling the next Virtual User Group for September 7, 2006 at 10:30 AM EST.
