Polarsys/ReleaseEngineering/Definitions
Polarsys definitions for release engineering
- A Polarsys release is a delivered version of the Polarsys platform, like an Eclipse (e.g., Eclipse 3.x, 4.y).
- A Polarsys package is an aggregation of built components for a distribution of a Polarsys release, like the "Eclipse Modeling Tools" package. A Package contains a consistent set of integrated components.
- A Polarsys platform is a Polarsys package which stresses on the fact that the package is an SDK with a configuration of components.
Kinds of Polarsys platform:
- Polarsys Operational Platform (POP): this platform integrates certified components. This platform respects a time-based planning.
- Polarsys Experimental Platform (PEP): this platform integrates validated components; some are already certified.
In the future, Polarsys could be declined in other kinds of platforms.
