Phil,
It seems clear to me - UTMC is the 'perfect' product. Although not easy
to explain, everyone else seems to be implementing it - and although few
may actually understand it - it's obviously desirable and so we all want
it!

[TCUG] Re: UTMC
Dave/Peter
It is not very easy to explain this subject..... I was in fact thinking
of doing a paper (through my own personal interest) on what we have
nationally achieved through UTMC and also to be able to determine a
clear roadmap/strategy for future systems but this would take quite
considerable time and research.
However, in essence it is all about communication between components,
interoperatibility and interchangeability which is achieved through
adherence to the OSI reference model and also by use of the TCP/IP suite
of protocols such as - UDP, TCP, IP, SNMP, FTP etc.=20
It is also about developing underlying hardware/software interfaces that
enable you to create truly open standards and thereby the 'plug and
play' that we are able to do with the MS Windows based computer
products. This is the 'holy grail'. Question is - Have we achieved this
goal?
Kind regards,
Jag

Jag,
Does it not simply refer to an open and common architecture which will
allow anyone who is interested to develop bolt on systems rather than
relying on just 2 manufacturers to come up with all the ideas... just
like Microsoft Windows?

We are currently upgrading to UTMC so we can take full advantage of to
allow us to because many ITS applications=20

Jag,
It is a bit fudged but basically I mean any authority that employs a
common database system or modern IP type comms packages or are actively
pursuing procurement of same to give increased options for traffic
management strategy. Hope that's a bit more specific.
Regards,
Dave

Dave,
What do you mean by UTMC systems?
When UTMC started the focus was on UTC application only.
Then as the consultants got on the gravy train they created the IP glue
to connect all the various instation systems to the Common database
based on Corba.
As time passed we have people claiming to supply UTMC detection.
I understand that the current consensus is that UTMC system is anything
that runs using the Internet Protocol.
So once again can you please define what you mean by UTMC systems?
