Objectives:

The second phase of the IDC Reengineering program, completed in April 2017, focused on significant enhancements to individual components of the SHI automatic and interactive processing as well as data and product dissemination and software quality assurance.

In January 2018 the IDC initiated, in parallel with the second phase, the scoping and resource estimations for the third phase of its Reengineering program that considers the software development, testing and roll-out of SHI applications. It aims at producing, by the last quarter of 2023, the software based on an upgraded, modern architecture and software framework for SHI applications.

Reengineering Phase 3 (RP3) follows system design techniques based on UML (Unified Modelling Language) and RUP (Rational Unified Process). Technical meetings are periodically held to provide a forum for experts from Member States to review and give feedback on RP3 deliverables.

This technical meeting marks the beginning of Phase 3 of IDC Reengineering and will focus on:

Reviewing current status of the construction phase, including project plan, projected milestones and updated deliverables;

Presenting the results of preparations for phase 3 of reengineering within the IDC, with a focus on improving agility and improving technical readiness levels of enhanced algorithms and approaches;

Discussing technical and scientific issues arising from evaluation, integration and deployment of RP3 deliverables.

Meeting participants are invited to contribute to the technical meeting by making a 15 minutes presentation related to one of the following themes:

Theme 1: Reengineering Project Status

Theme 2: Agile Software Development Processes

Theme 3: Technical and Scientific Issues
