Participants

DASU implementation finished and merged in the develop branch: tests pass with the exception of one ASCE test that fails updating the validity (@see Issue #19)

will become more and more busy with the preparation for the temporary transfer, he will get some holidays but has no dates yet
before leaving he will fix some minor bugs and upgrade the tools used by the IAS (a task left behind for a while to finish the implementation of the DASU)

Implementation of Java application that uses the SimpleStringConsumer and sends messages through websockets to the IAS Webserver
Implementation in progress of a Kafka consumer in Python, replication behaviour of SimpleStringConsumer
Considerations for comparison of the alternatives

Make Web Server's CoreConsumer create, update or filter alarms according to messages from the Core
Encapsulate Core's Java Sender to Web Server
Create mock Alarms producer in the Core
Coordinate next UX Activities

What do we need to do to run the whole IAS Core using mock plugins, in order to evaluate "real" load conditions?
Why is the SimpleStringConsumer not being used in other parts of the IAS Core?
Can we see Filippo's mock plugin? Can we use it for our tests?
For the plugins, should we start with the Weather Station? Where can we find references for this?

Alessandro's DASU implementation advances
Presentation of the Java application to send messages to the webserver using websockets.
- After a brief review in the meeting, the focus will be in favor on the use of Java with the IAS Core classes more than alternative options with Python for the kafka consumer.
Comments about the next internship.
- The student would arrive on December, 18th.
- To be considered the work on the plugin for the weather station.
- Alessandro will send an email with references about this.
Brief discussion about the use of the IAS Core. At least, should be running applications for converters, plugins and DASUs. The focus on the use of the core will be considered on January.
Activities to be considered on December:
- Work on plugins
- Performance tests with the SimpleStringConsumer and the connection with the webserver.
- Preparation for the next meeting with Emilio, coordinated by Grazia.
Considerations about the deploy will be evaluated on January.
Filippo will contact Sebastian to send information about the current implementation of his plugin, as a reference for the future work.

Monday 11th of December at 16:00 Germany - 12:00 Chile
