Laurence reported about a tutorial she attended about JAVA-Beans
(unfortunately the tutorial was of low quality). Based on the demo
Laurence prepared for Dirk (researcher from UBILAB) we discussed what
enhancements are necessary for the Transportation demo, so it can be
used for next summer's DARPA demos:
- having the megamodules on more than one computer (==> we need three
computers on which we can run Orbix)
- enhancements to I/O-megamodule
- rewrapping all the transportation modules?
- Best-Route megamodule: estimate should give back some results
- adding a selection criterion (cost, time) to megamodule Best-Route
that can be preset
- second megamodule Best-Route in Java and RMI

Is that list complete? 

We further discussed about how we can use user-data for
control-decisions.

I will write a short summary of this discussion and put it on the web.

Dorothea
