Abstract

See full text

System and method for using a task state model to perform measurement tasks. The system includes a computer system, one or more measurement resources, and a task state model. Attributes for performing the measurement task are specified. The task is transitioned from an Initial state to a Deployed state, thereby compiling the attributes to primitive settings and deploying the primitive settings into a run-time for the measurement task. The task is transitioned from the Deployed state to an Executing state, thereby acquiring the measurement resources to perform the task, configuring the measurement resources with the primitive settings to perform the task, and executing the run-time to perform the measurement task using the measurement resources. One or more methods may be invoked which result in explicit state transitions, and which may include one or more implicit state transitions which may be programmatically performed before, during, or after the measurement task.
