Object-Oriented Integrated Maintenance Information System (IMIS) diagnostic Module Development

Abstract

This technical paper summarizes the work performed to redesign and enhance the Integrated Maintenance Information System Diagnostic Module (IMIS- DM). The diagnostic module provides technical support to the maintenance technician by furnishing a wide range of capabilities assisting in the selection of an efficient sequence of maintenance tasks. One of the major outcomes of this effort was the redesign of the IMIS-DM using Object-Oriented (OO) rapid prototyping techniques to create a diagnostic module compatible with hierarchical data base concepts employed by the AFHRL Content Data Model (CDM). Another major outcome was the enhancement of the IMIS-DM assessment operations. The enhanced IMIS-DM now provides three modes of assessment (functional, physical, and degraded) whereas the previous version provided only the functional mode.
