4、bility between components of automatic test systems where test results need to be shared. The standard thus facilitates the capture of test results data in storage devices and databases, facilitating online and offline analysis. The test results schema becomes a class of information that can be used
5、 within the SIMICA family of standards. The exchange format utilizes the XML formats.

Comments on Standards Comments for revision of IEEE Standards documents are welcome from any interested party, regardless of membership affiliation with IEEE. However, IEEE does not provide consulting information or advice pertaining to IEEE Standards do

Since IEEE standards represent a consensus of concerned interests, it is important that any responses to comments and questions also receive the concurrenc

For this reason, IEEE and the members of its societies and Standards Coordinating Committees are not able to provide an instant response to comments or questions except in those cases where the matter has previously been addressed.

21、sers of IEEE Standards documents should be aware that these documents may be superseded at any time by the issuance of new editions or may be amended from time to time through the issuance of amendments, corrigenda, or errata. An official IEEE document at any point in time consists of the current ed

When a document is more than ten years old and has not undergone a revision process, it is reasonable to conclude that its contents, although
23、 still of some value, do not wholly reflect the present state of the art. Users are cautioned to check to determine that they have the latest edition of any IEEE standard.

By publication of this standard, no position is taken by the IEEE with respect to the existence or validity of any patent rights in connection therewith. If a patent holder or patent applicant has filed a statement of assurance via an Accepte

Letters of Assurance may indicate whether the Submitter is willing or unwilling to grant licenses under patent rights without compensation or under reasonable rates,
28、 with reasonable terms and conditions that are demonstrably free of any unfair discrimination to applicants desiring to obtain such licenses. Essential Patent Claims may exist for which a Letter of Assurance has not been received. The IEEE is not responsible for identifying Essential Patent Claims f
29、or which a license may be required, for conducting inquiries into the legal validity or scope of Patents Claims, or determining whether any licensing terms or conditions provided in connection with submission of a Letter of Assurance, if any, or in any licensing agreements are reasonable or non-disc

37、rt of IEEE Std 1636.1-2013, IEEE Standard for Software Interface for Maintenance Information Collection and Analysis (SIMICA): Exchanging Test Results and Session Information via the eXtensible Markup Language (XML). Maintainers of complex systems require the ability to capture and share test result
38、 information in a way that supports such activities as performance analysis, post-production product improvement, maintenance process improvement, and diagnostic maturation. Principal stakeholders of this project include but are not limited to maintenance organizations within various Departments/Min
39、istries of Defense, the commercial airlines, the automotive industry, and the telecommunications industry. This standard is being developed as a component of the IEEE 1636 Software Interface for Maintenance Information Collection and Analysis (SIMICA) project. SIMICAs purpose is to specify a softwar
40、e interface for access, exchange, and analysis of product diagnostic and maintenance information. Clause 4, Test results and session information, provides a subset of the data needed to satisfy SIMICA requirements. The use of formal information models will facilitate exchanging historical test resul
41、ts between information systems and analysis tools. The models will facilitate creating open system software architectures for maturing system diagnostics. The XML schema described in this standard where appropriate utilizes and references components of the IEEE Std 1671 schema set. It is anticipated
42、 that these schemas will be used throughout industries that utilize diagnostic and maintenance data as an exchange format that can be understood by humans or machines. In order to ensure wide acceptance throughout the user community, the schemas have been designed to encompass a broad range of use c
43、ases. To accommodate use cases beyond the released design, the schemas provide means for user extensibility. It is anticipated that the IEEE Std 1636.1 schema will be used throughout the automatic test equipment (ATE) industry as an exchange format that can be understood by humans or machines. In or
44、der to ensure wide acceptance throughout the user community, the schemas have been designed to encompass a broad range of use cases. vii Copyright 2013 IEEE. All rights reserved. Contents 1.
