2. Progress Resolved PHP-based submission issue last week
Worked on implementing storage system for failed uploads

3. Web-based PHP submission VI is now functional
VI submits measurements and comments, and receives error code for confirmation or debugging
Headers for Medical Center server were improperly parsed on PDA
Stripping out header/content parsing process and adding a parser downstream fixed the issue
Submission VI incorporated into main program, uploads acquired data and receives proper error code

4. File Reading Problems
In case of wireless network failure, failed uploads save to a separate file
When implemented with ASCII files, unexplained memory errors occurred
Switched to binary files, using groupings of variables called “bundles”
Currently having difficulty troubleshooting our initial implementation

5. Goals for Next Week
Work on implementation of failed upload management component
Begin to outline field test procedure
Begin developing final documentation for project
