1. 1 ATML Status January 2008 Issue 14 An overview of the ATML activity in the ATML focus group and as part of the IEEE SCC20 sub-committees

2. 2 ATML ATML’s mission is to define a collection of XML-based schemas that allows ATE and test information to be exchanged in a common format adhering to the XML standard ATML defines a framework through which different architectures using XML can be implemented. –defines the components from which users can build their architectures, whilst being interoperable with other compliant architectures. –Show examples of the net centric services by which this information can be exchanged across different ATS platforms as part of a maintenance process. –defines the XML format that these elements. The ATML specifications will define: –How to define XML schemas that represent ATE and test information. –A set of XML schemas supporting the exchange of specific ATE and test information. The ATML specifications will support: –services that can be used for exchanging ATE and test information in a distributed net-centric environment. –services supporting the exchange of specific ATE and test information in specific common areas.

4. 4 SCC20 & ATML Organisations The IEEE SCC20 is the standards organisation through which the ATML components (i.e.; schemas and documentation) will be published under various IEEE standards. The ATML organisation is an open, independent focus group contributed to by the ATE industry and government agencies to advance the common exchange of test information through the use of XML. –The ATML group provides draft schemas and associated documents, examples, use cases, requirements and conducts trial use of any ATML components. –Their findings are submitted to the various SCC20 sub- committees and working groups to advance the IEEE standards associated with the ATML components.

25. 25 Balloting - Spanning Calendar Years Clarification –Once the initial ballot begins, the ballot group is set until all rounds of balloting are finished. –Even if a ballotter does not renew his or her IEEE membership. myProject and myBallot accounts remain active only for activities selected while IEEE membership was active. myProject will indicate that IEEE membership has expired. All votes and comments are valid, and are to be handled as any other IEEE-SA member. –The IEEE does not wish to re-establish balloting constituencies.
