Research  and developed mixed system based on Rational Rose modules and LabView 7.1 GUI for perform "capsule under test" paradigm for different subsystems of industrial instrument. LabView implementation incudes independent module for processing, displaying and responding on CAN messaging from raw CAN board. Algorithms of implementation  incapsulateslogic for composing and assembling multi-frame CAN messages with very complex and sophisticated structure. Researched, developed, and implement Model with complex logic hierachies based on logic representation of the coolaboration and class diagrams, developed code incarnated in this diagrams and relations. Communications between LabView GUI interface and Rational Rose top capsules performed by Microsoft Queues and  DLLs for framing it into code strcuture. Widely use Connexis framework for TCP/IP connection in between Model parts which provides distribution Model into different entitites.

Developed real-time system for researching caviation in the feeding pipes of industial equipment based on ultrasonic sensors and OPTO-22 input modules.

Researched and developed test system for universal motor control unit. Such unit based on specialized motor quadrature controller
 driven   by proprietory OS have set of discrete, analog or frequency inputs and outputs and controlled by set of CAN messages. Test set analyze unit as a "black box" and generate HTML test report with embedded graphics and diagrams for verification purposes.Whole test system written on LabView 7.11 with DLLs written in C++ with C interface.
