| We're making a major change to the schedule. Rather than |
| focus on |
| getting the new Acore meta-model out, we're working on |
| getting |
| documentation, testing and polish completed first so that we |
| have the |
| best possible platform for future improvements. MetaABM is |
| not |
| perfect, but it works very well for the majority of current use |
| cases. The greatest priority now is to build up a good user and |
| contributor base and that means using the current very stable |
| meta-model target and improving surrounnding infrastructure. |
| |
| Please note that as with |
| all Eclipse Incubation projects, version |
| numbers are |
| 0.n. This is not a reflection of overall code completion |
| or quality. For |
| example 0.7.0 is planned to have a reasonably stable |
| API and 0.8.+ should be production ready, i.e. at least equivalent to |
| 1.0. The 0.9.0 release is the new target for Acore functionality, |
| though we may decide to do a 1.0.0 release first. This will depend on |
| our progress in building community, which looks really positive. |
| </div><h2><a name="release_deliverables">Release Deliverables</a></h2><div> |
| Each release will include: |
| <ul> |
| <li>Update site including runtime, SDK, documentation and source. |
| </li> |
| <li>Features and plugins packaged (download).</li> |
| <li>Examples (download)</li> |

| advertisements. |
| We |
| might not meet all of them, but by keeping them in |
| mind, AMP |
| contributors and users can focus their |
| efforts on the |
| important |
| stuff. |
| </div><h3>Innovative</h3><div> |
| <ul> |
| Provide disruptive tools that support new ways of doing |
| modeling |
| and general science. |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| Capture emerging best practices. |
| </ul> |
| </div><h3>Complete</h3><div> |
| <ul> |
| Support all canonical ABM modeling capabilities. |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| Provide an API capable of supporting a full user experience. |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| Provide comprehensive documentation, examples and exemplar |
| usages. |
| </ul> |
| </div><h3>High Quality</h3><div> |
| <ul> |
| Conform to all Eclipse and modeling project conventions and |
| processes, including builds, testing and internal documentation. |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| Use Eclipse approaches (e.g. adapters, extension points, OSGi |
| and |
| other runtime |
| mechanisms) to support extremely low coupling |
| between |
| AMP |
| components and for toolsets utilizing AMP. For example, |
| as an |
| exemplar project the core Escape library and AMP will ideally |
| share no |
| common API. |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| Within components, provide a high-level of cohesion so that |
| minimal additional coding is required to adapt AMP infrastructure |
| to specific needs. |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| Provide attractive, consistent and responsive Look and Feel and |
| branding consistent with overall Eclipse platform. |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| Guide user through all exceptional conditions. |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| Whenever possible, remove sources of cognitive dissonance for |
| users and API developers. |
| </ul> |
| </div><h3>Community Building</h3><div> |
| <ul> |
| Provide technology that is open ended enough to support |
| unanticipated usages, yet provides easily understood and |
| high-value components to encourage early adoption by core |
| audience. |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| Build an open, welcoming and inclusive community of |
| collaborators |
| and committers by involving other projects, |
| organizations, and |
| scientific disciplines. |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| Preserve a strong architectural vision, but be open to new |
| ideas |
| and approaches. |
