Revision as of 19:01, 31 March 2023
On this page you will find out about:
- What research & development work is (going to be) planned for the MSP Challenge Simulation Platform on the longer term.
- What specific software releases are (going to be) planned for the MSP Challenge Simulation Platform over the next years.
Note that both our R&D and version release plannings are subject to continuous refinements and alterations!
Longer-term R&D planning
On the long term (until at least 2026), we are working on at least the following features (in completely random order!):
- Sustainable commercial fishing policy options and resulting simulation
- Sustainable sand / gravel extraction policy options and resulting simulation
- Shipping incident risk simulation
- Eastern Mediterranean Sea edition and any other sea basin editions for which we can find partners
- Introduction of 3D graphical elements, including with (but not limited to) VR or AR devices
- Introduction of a customisable dashboard system
- Making the client 'pluggable': turning windows into plug-ins that can thus be chosen/configured for the target audience and objectives at hand, also enabling automatic updating/patching
- Making the client 'skinnable': turning the entire audiovisual style (fonts, colours, imagery, sound) into a 'skin' that can thus be chosen/configured for the target audience and objectives at hand
- Improving how GIS data can be retrieved and used in an edition
- Done!
Usability and playability improvements across all user interfaces, including the introduction of a tutorial mode - Regular audiovisual restyling (but no more than once per year)
- Continuous upgrades of the entire technology stack when necessary (e.g. end-of-life, no more support) or opportune (e.g. increasing performance or unlocking new potential)
Version release planning
2023
- Done! 4.0-RCx in Q1 and 2, focused mostly on overhauling the client's opening screen and a tutorial mode, and the further use of Symfony server-side Done! 4.0-RCx in Q1 and 2, focused mostly on overhauling the client's opening screen and a tutorial mode, and the further use of Symfony server-side
- 4.0 in Q3 or 4, focused purely on bug fixing and performance ik improvements of the previous Release Candidates
2024
- 4.0.x Releases possibly focused on the introduction of the customisable dashboard system, possible offering a first basic/incomplete version of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea edition.
2025
- Likely 4.1.x, potentially focused mostly sustainable commercial fishing and/or sand / gravel extraction policy options and simulation.
