Simulator manager system, developed for X-Plane simulators as a thesis in VUT, FIT, Brno

simulatormanager's Issues

Running simulations - wrong date displayed

In database we have year 2014, the user sees 1970.

Check if simulation is running

Try to get data from simulator. If it's impossible, set Simulation not running state to database. If it's possible, set Simulation running state to database.

Add simulator active column

Flight map - not implemented yet

When user goes to RunningSimulationsView:

1. Download flight history from database. Filter (on the database side if possible, if no - on java side) to choose only those records where distance between two points is more than 100 meters. When the distance is less than 100 meters, we are not interested in this data and we don't put a new pin on the map.
   Question: should we also display the coordinates in text format?
2. Every second get data about latest plane position from database. If distance from the previous position is more than 100 m, add a new pin on the map.
3. Make sure pins look different for starting point and end point.
4. When we change simulation, clean the map to delete info about the previous flight.
5. When new data arrives, center the map around the current plane position. Not sure if we should do it every time new data arrives or only when the planes position changes significantly.
6. Maybe we should also scale the map automatically to try include as much flight path as possible?
7. Extract google map to your own component.
8. Don't overdo it now. Anyway you will have to change it.

Write simulator data to db every second

Running simulations page

Timestamps problem. Cannot convert value to number error message is displayed. No error message should be displayed.

add better navigation

PostgreSQL build index on tables

Database designer fork has generated queries for building indexes which I haven't executed. Maybe I should execute them? Does it improve performance significantly?

Install filght simulator locally

Table simulator was not found

Try to update to new vaadin

Add simulator images (simulators list)

• on select
• when none is selected

add a flag: should write data to database or something like that

have 2 separate schedulers? one for writing data to database. another for the simulator which we are viewing now. so that we don't retrieve data for those simulators which aren't viewed right now?

or just the flag, so that we don't contact simulators, data from which we don't want to store in the database.

Sprint 3

1. Save info about hostname also - 0.5 day
   #24
2. Check if simulation is running - 1 day
   #20
3. Get data about running simulation on all simulators, save it to db - 2 days
   #21
4. Parse simulation data, save it to a bean class, update it every second - 0.5 day
   #22
5. Running simulations view - display data from actual simulation - 3 days
   #23
6. Every minute clean the database to delete obsolete data - 1 day
   #25

Make it look cuter

Simulator manager - generate needed tables automatically

Now I am creating tables for database manually. What should be done - we just set the database connection details, then the Simulator Manager generates all the needed tables in that database

modify buttons

add simulator button - add plus
remove simulator button - add cross

Add authentication

Comment code. Currently code is almost completely uncommented.

Comment the uncommented code. In future, spend at least 0.5 hour of your work commenting code which you believe will not be significantly changed.

Fake data generator - unable to create new simulations

Currently fake data generator is able to only add data to existing simulation. It would be good if it could create a new simulation to test how Simulator Manager will behave when there is a new simulation available.

Primary flight display - drawing outside the canvas

Currently I draw some things which are not visible for the user. To improve performance, don't draw outside canvas.

Running simulations view - display data from actual simulation.

Datasource should be changed. Instead of contacting database, we get the info from simulators directly now.

Change datasource for: simulation info, pfd info, devices state

Estimation: 3 days.

Compass bug

Mistake 0.05 every seconds is too big.

Get data about running simulation on all simulators.

If simulation is running - get data every second and save it to database.
If simulation is not running - check every second if somebody started it or no.

Primary flight display - Yaw

Yaw is not implemented.

Manage simulators page - impossible to remove a simulator.

When a simulator has simulations, it's impossible to remove it. Discuss with Martin and Karol:

• what should happen when we want to remove a simulator?

add button "write to database"

Primary flight display - conflict of when new data arives

Currently, when new data comes for altitude (and all other data), we check if the animation is currently running. If it is running, we ignore the last message to prevent race conditions.

Improve that:
Stop previous animation, start new animation, when new data arrives.

Every minute clean the database to delete obsolete data.

Save the last 30 minutes of the last simulation on each simulation.
If the data is older than 30 minutes, we keep a record only every minute.

We implement it by running a ScheduledExecutorService which cleans the database every minute.

Estimation - 1 day.

change column names to enum

Add moment of time on past simulations page

smth like "status of simulator "simulator id on 15.01.2015"

Try to contact simulators through QT

Parse simulation data, save it to a bean class, update it every second.

Estimation 0.5 day

Running simulations page - push only when needed

Currently pushing from server to clienht every second and not checking if the push is actually needed. Push only when needed to improve performance.

style navigation

Previous simulations view

Maybe replay the simulation on PFD in a quick mode. That would be cool, but that would take a lot of time.

Primary flight display compass - aliasing artifacts

Check what can be done about that.

Add application usage info to Database management page

Init simulators data

add a button for simulations: finish this simulation, so that new data goes to a new simulation

The animation for PFD is not smooth

Make it smoother. Maybe, use acceleration for animation instead of a constant?

Give normal names to everything

View confs

List of simulators - hostname, port

Add hostname, port.

Altitude indicator - sometimes it gets into eternal loop because of race condition. FIX IT!

Add ping simulator

Primary flight display - artifacts apper when changing roll and pitch extensively

rename from testvaadin to simulatormanager

Make some parameters configurable in application

• database host, user, password
• how often do we fetch data
• how often do we update ui
• what is the minimum distance between two points when we should write data to db

Primary flight display - vertical speed

Not implemented yet. I don't even know how it should look.
