IEEE P1636.2/D8-2017 Draft Standard for Software Interface for Maintenance Information Collection and Analysis (SIMICA): Exchanging Maintenance Action Information via the Extensible Markup Language (XML)
IEEE - The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers@ Inc.
Scope
The scope of this standard is the definition of an exchange format@ utilizing XML@ for exchanging maintenance action information (MAI) associated with the removal@ repair@ and replacement of system components to maintain/support an operational system. Purpose The purpose of this standard is to promote and facilitate interoperability between components of a test system and applications in a maintenance environment where MAI needs to be shared. The standard will facilitate the capture and exchange of unit under test (UUT) specific maintenance information@ facilitating online and offline analysis of the maintenance process. The maintenance action schema defines a class of information to be used within the SIMICA family of standards.
