Ground Experiments Monitoring Software Based On Rup Space Materials Experiment Module

In the research of Integrated Material Experiment Module in Space (IMEMS), testing is an important detection method, by which IMEMS is tested,experimented and validated on ground. As the PC software of the ground testing system, the software provides the IMEMS tools of monitoring, control, statistics collecting and analyzing and data management.Many common software development methodologies, such as waterfall model, spiral model, incremental/iterative model, prototype model and RUP, are distinguished in their specialities. In the preface, methodologies listed previously are explained and compared. RUP is chosen as the development method of the project.RUP is a guideline of the software development. This application is a practice of advanced software development technology. Architecture promoted in the project can be used as a reference in research of similar projects.The following functions are to be achieved: monitoring analog signal values and engineering data, sending controlling commands, analyzing statistics of historical data, managing experimental data and monitoring remotely. Following work has been finished: requirement analysis, preliminary design, detailed design and realization of some functions (including monitoring by chart, graph and profile, sending control commands and other related features).Theory and approach of RUP is introduced at the beginning. Afterwards, the application of RUP in the project is illuminated.Requirement analysis, preliminary design and detailed design are illustrated in the coming chapters. In chapter of requirement analysis, the project's background, internal structure, network structure and division of modules are described. The function requirement is discussed with the help of use cases. In chapter of preliminary design, system's architecture is described in 4 views: use case view, logic view, process view and deployment view. Design and realization of main classes are addressed by organization of logic layers in chapter of detailed design.Finally, the research result of the project is shown and the prospect of the project is presented in the following aspects: standardization,generalization, networking and so on.
