OBJECT ORIENTED FRAMEWORK ARCHITECTURE FOR SENSING AND/OR CONTROL ENVIRONMENTS

An object oriented sensing control framework architecture includes a sensor controller framework module, an application services framework module, a signal database, and an application database. The sensor controller framework module may exist within a sensor controller gateway; the application services framework module may exist within an application services system. The sensor controller framework module manages communication between 1) sensing control subsystem elements, which generate and or receive data and or hardware signals; and 2) signal objects in the sensor controller framework module and or service objects in the application services framework module, which generate and or receive event messages. Signal and or service objects may be selectively associated with particular types of sensing and or control subsystem elements, and process information within corresponding event messages. Associations between signal and or service objects and sensing and or control subsystem elements may be specified in the signal and or the application database. Signal and or service objects may be stored upon and distributed by an Object Management System. An object oriented sensing/control framework architecture includes a sensor/controller framework module, an application services framework module, a signal database, and an application database. The sensor/controller framework module may exist within a sensor/controller gateway the application services framework module may exist within an application services system. The sensor/controller framework module manages communication between 1 sensing/control subsystem elements, which generate and/or receive data and/or hardware signals and 2 signal objects in the sensor/controller framework module and/or service objects in the application services framework module, which generate and/or receive event messages. Signal and/or service objects may be selectively associated with particular types of sensing and/or control subsystem elements, and process information within corresponding event messages. Associations between signal and/or service objects and sensing and/or control subsystem elements may be specified in the signal and/or the application database. Signal and/or service objects may be stored upon and distributed by an Object Management System.
