Engineering change management system
A change management system is configured to control communication between one or more engineering subsystems utilized in the design and/or manufacture of a component. The change management system may be configured to facilitate communication between one or more engineering subsystems that are fragmented and/or not configured to communicate with one another. Further, the change management system may be configured to act as a virtual user when interfacing with one or more of the engineering subsystems. Additionally, the change management system may be configured to check data from one or more of the subsystems for compliance with one or more control rules governing the progression of a manufacturing/design project.
Dynamic byte order determination and conversion for robotic component
A management system (or controller) is configured to send commands to robotic components of different types (e.g., different command types, byte order types, etc.). Once configured, a translation component may be deployed to translate some commands to some robotic components that use a different command type than a native command type used by the management system. The management system uses a native byte order type to create commands, which may be big endian or little endian. While some of the robotic components (e.g., first robotic components) may also use the native byte order type, other robotic components (e.g., second robotic components) may use a non-native byte order type (in relation to the management system). For example, the native byte order type may be big endian while the non-native byte order type may be little endian, or vice versa.
