The FFMM is aimed at facing the new test requirements arising after the production series of the Large Hadron Collider magnets. In particular, the basic concepts of the FFMM, its architecture, and the experimental implementation of a demonstrator are illustrated in order to show how the quality requirements of software flexibility and scalability are met.2007-09-30http://cds.cern.ch/record/1094122http://cds.cern.ch/record/1094122oai:cds.cern.ch:1094122 engArpaia, PBernardi, M LDi Lucca, GInglese, VSpiezia, GFault self-defection of automatic testing systems by means of aspect-oriented programmingAccelerators and Storage RingsCERN-AT-2007-035-MTMAn Aspect Oriented approach to implement fault detection in automatic measurement systems is proposed. Faults are handled by means of "aspects", a specific software unit to better modularize issues transversal to many modules ("crosscutting concerns"). In this way, maintainability and reusability of a measurement software are improved: indeed, once a modification of the fault detection policy occurs, only the related aspects have to be modified. As an experimental case study, this technique has been applied to the fault self-detection of a flexible framework for magnetic measurements, developed at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN).2007-09-30http://cds.cern.ch/record/1094118http://cds.cern.ch/record/1094118oai:cds.cern.ch:1094118
