Research and development of visualized collaborative design platform for AUV

摘要

The visualized collaborative design platform for autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is established, which is a distributed system to solve the problem of collaborative design for AUV. Hardware and software structure of the platform is introduced. The designs of flow modeling at client and flow engine at server are described in detail. For flow modeling, widgets are designed to implement visual flow design and self-definition of computing tasks based on the workflow theory. The flow engine which will actuate the flow execution is integrated in the mobile-agent layer of server. An example of application is given to show that the platform is visualized and effective.
