Monday Plenary Session

 

Joint meeting with T25 Tuesday 1530 - 1700

 

Rob Boddington of EuroSTEP UK gave a presentation on  OWL.

 

Onno Paap of Fluor Corporation gave a presentation on  EPISTLE 15926-4 Reference data library www.infowebml.ws

 

 Tim Turner of LSC Group gave feedback on what likely use T23 team will have for the epistle products. Currently this is thought to be mostly the use of the EPISTLE RDL.

 

Peter Benson of the USA provided Feedback on the existence of the common Product catalogue CPC project.

 

AP 216 testing / implementation Wednesday 1030–1200

 

A presentation on electronic port clearance was given by Petter Myrvang of DNV. The primary aim of the project was to replace the paper based system for informing port authorities that a ship is fit to dock  with an XML based electronic exchange. The presentation was well received and promoted some debate. The consensus that formed from the debate included the need to involve other classification societies in the project and that the project underlying XML basis may have some common ground with the oil and gas and should be investigated further.

 

Gerry Radack of CTC gave  a presentation on the status of AP216 testing.

 

·         Test files are stabilizing and formal testing of AP216 translators is ready to begin

·         Conference calls are being held bi-weekly among participants

·         First round of testing to be completed before next Systems Technology Panel Meeting which will be in late May 2005

·         Results will also be briefed at next T23 Meeting in Valencia, Spain on June 14, 2005

 

Tim Turner reported that the problems encountered with the LSC viewer during the testing sessions at Seattle have been attributed to the underlying ACIS graphics kernel and that an upgrade to the latest version is thought to fix the problem.

 

 Discussion took place on progressing the testing activity to other APs. It was agreed tat the focus of testing should remain with 216 until it was rigorously tested and then the focus would change to AP227.  There is however no formalized plan within this area and activity focus  may change, currently  Ron Wood is actively pursuing funding in this area.

 

Burt Gischner  gave a presentation on the current status of AP227 ed 2 and the results of the ISE project to date:

 

·         ISE Project has successfully demonstrated the potential of standards based data exchange for Piping and HVAC

·         ISE2 Project exchanges using AP227 Edition 2 translators were shown as part of an ISE Project Demonstration held in Washington, D.C. on April 10, 2003

·         ISE3 Project implemented AP227 ed. 2 for HVAC in Shipbuilding. Active from Oct. 2003 through Dec. 2004

·         The goal of current and future efforts is to make these techniques and tools available in production and to all U.S. shipyards

·         STEP Shipbuilding Translators

·         XML Tools

·         Common Parts Catalog Interfaces

 

·         A Website has been established to contain the relevant software tools, schemas, etc. as provided by the ISE Project. www.isetools.org

 

Ron wood presented a useful chart depicting the status of  all the shipbuilding APs and associated products.

 

 

Joint meeting held with EMSA Wed PM

 

The major topic of discussion was the future of and the role of the EMSA building blocks. These underlie the majority of European ship implementations.

 

Potential problems:

·         Out of date

·         Encourage divergent implementations in Europe and America

 

Solutions: (not solved yet!)

                Investigate possibility of XML conversion

                Modules?

                ISC schemas?
