Duration: 5 Months ( September, 2009 to February, 2010 ).
Client: Metso Automation.
Status: Successfully Completed.
Project Group: This project is accomplished by a group of six students of the Department of Software Systems, TUT.
I was a member of the team as a developer, architecture designer and code style checker.
I also wrote the Maintainace document and part of SRS, Functional Specification document, Design document, Test Plan document and Test report.

Project Description:
This product is called mobile application for Metso, which is abbreviated as M.A.M.A ( See Snapshots ). Purpose of the application is to connect through wireless local area network (WLAN) connection to the jaw crusher unit's automation system and get vital process information with Modbus over TCP layer ( See the figure bellow ). User can check the status of the process and other information, and control some not so safety critical operations with his/her mobile phone.
The application is designed to work on Nokia's E-series smart phones, but its core part, i.e. everything else than the user interface, works also without major changes on a PC.
