摘要:
Systems, methods and media for providing a distributed execution environment with per-command environment management are disclosed. In one embodiment, a plurality of digital systems are connected to a serving device. The serving device comprises a sequencer to originate environment attributes and commands to be executed within the environment. Each digital system under test and serving device comprises a listener with a queue to receive environment attributes and commands. A listener on a digital system under test or serving device implements the environment attributes and executes the received commands within the specified environment.

Aspects for efficient order processing in a manufacturing environment are described. The aspects include utilizing a hierarchical definition language with run-time control capability to represent and control a box line manufacturing process of computer systems in a unified manner. Further provided is a state file, the state file including blocks, sub-blocks, tasks, and containers for run-time information of the box line manufacturing process of computer systems. A sequencer tool interacts with the state file to direct tasks of the state file, monitor task completion, and update the state file with real-time control information. A listener tool interacts with the sequencer tool to start tasks, monitor tasks, and send task results to the sequencer tool.

An automated technique for switching operating systems, responsive to current context of an executing test scenario. A test designer specifies, in a process control file, a required operating system for appropriate command blocks. A test sequencer packages the required operating system name with each command to be executed, and sends that information to a test listener on a system under test. The test listener remembers the currently-running operating system, and compares that to the required operating system for each command to be executed. If a mismatch occurs, then the correct operating system is not running, and the listener automatically triggers a reboot.

A computer manufacturing system is disclosed. The computer manufacturing system comprises a system under test (SUT), the SUT including a network adapter and a boot loader for loading the appropriate operating system. The SUT further includes a station for receiving customer orders for the SUT, the station including a sequencer. The sequencer obtains a boot selection file for the SUT from a directory. The SUT further retrieves and parses the boot selection file to obtain the operating system image to load and boot until the SUT is configured with the appropriate date. A system and method in accordance with the present invention provides a means for a computer being manufactured (hereinafter called a system under test, or SUT) to boot an operating system without the need for any local media. In addition, it allows the SUT to boot any one of several operating systems as required, depending on the tools being run during that portion of the process. The system in accordance with the present invention allows the operating system to be specified as an attribute of a manufacturing operation. The system in accordance with the present invention can switch between operating systems as required by the operations to be performed as specified by the appropriate personnel.

Aspects for efficiently assembling a processing system in a manufacturing environment are described. The aspects include enabling a network boot option for boot packet transfers in a system under test (SUT) during a manufacturing line assembly process and utilizing data from network packet transfers by the SUT to perform binding operations for the SUT. The binding operations include an initial binding based on boot request packet data by a floor system server and an order-specific information recall based on network packet data by a local control machine.
摘要:
A computer implemented method, data processing system, and computer program product for using extensible object data (or other XML-based models of an ordered product) to directly drive manufacturing in an optimized manner. A customer order or request to create an item is received at a manufacturing facility. The customer order includes extensible object data (XOD) comprising an extensible markup language-based representation of a physical product. A production order to begin the manufacturing process is generated based on the customer order. A customized manufacturing process routing is created using XOD and an extensible translation stylesheet (XSLT), wherein the customized manufacturing process routing provides manufacturing operators with specific information regarding the process steps to manufacture items specified in the request. XOD and XSLT may also be used to create manual manufacturing instructions, trigger automated operations, and verify part number processing if part numbers are used to track customer orders.
摘要:
A method, system and computer-usable medium for generating a manufacturing-usable easily modifiable product order document is presented. An object collection of objects that describe features of components of a product is created. A view database that describes a logical relationship among components in the object collection is also created. A single document that includes the object collection and the view database is then generated. This single document can be updated according to technical requirements for a product being manufactured according to a product description created from the single document.
