Information and Computing Technology (ICT) dominates all aspects of business and much of our daily lives, and plays a large role in many areas of measurement. Traceability, measurement standards and quality systems all demand the demonstration of computational links that are fit for purpose, but testing is difficult without knowing whether software is producing accurate results in the first place. EMRP project Traceability for computationally-intensive metrology (NEW06 TraCIIM) will use mathematics, numerical analysis and state of the art computer technology to validate software and develop new technologies to deliver traceability to measurements requiring intensive computing. It will ensure the trustworthiness and fitness for purpose of measurement software and enhance consumer confidence in metrology products.
This training course is intended for developers of metrology software who are interested in having their software independently validated using the TraCIM system. Following an overview of the TraCIM concept, the design of TraCIM client software to communicate with the TraCIM system will be described. Example code will be provided and TraCIM partners will be on hand to provide guidance on creating example clients and interacting with the TraCIM server.
