Author Description

The Project Integration Architecture (PIA) implements a flexible, object-oriented, wrapping architecture which encapsulates all of the information associated with engineering applications. The architecture allows the progress of a project to be tracked and documented in its entirety. Additionally, by bringing all of the information sources and sinks of a project into a single architectural space, the ability to transport information between those applications is enabled.Jones, William HenryGlenn Research CenterARCHITECTURE (COMPUTERS); COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS; APPLICATIONS PROGRAMS (COMPUTERS); OBJECT-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING; GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE; PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION; INFORMATION RETRIEVAL; C++ (PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE); DATA STRUCTURES; COMPUTERIZED SIMULATION
