 COURSE TITLE:     Developing BASEstar for VMS Applications


       LENGTH:     5 DAYS

RELEASE LEVEL:     BASEstar Kernel for V3.3
                   BASEstar Device Connect Management V3.3


     OVERVIEW:     This course prepares students to design, develop,
                   and test BASEstar applications under a VMS/DECnet 
                   environment.  The main focus of instruction is the 
                   design and use of BASEstar applications in process 
                   and discrete production environments.

                   Students will be exposed to a wide range of topics from 
                   installing the base software, to developing BASEstar 
                   application solutions.  Discussion includes strategies
                   for interprocess messaging, data management, process 
                   synchronization, and shop floor device communication.
                   
                   Laboratory exercises are provided as supplements to the 
                   lectures, and serve to reinforce key concepts.  The labs 
                   involve programming exercises and interactive sessions 
                   with BASEstar user interfaces.



     TARGET        The intended audience is software professionals who 
     AUDIENCE:     will design, develop, or support applications which 
                   execute in BASEstar environments.  A course session 
                   can accommodate a maximum of twelve students.



PREREQUISITES:     Prior to attending this course, students should have
                   significant exposure to production environments.
                   Additionally, they should be experienced in:

                   - Developing code in high-level programming languages 
                     such as "C", PASCAL, and FORTRAN

                   - Implementing application programs in process or 
                     discrete environments 

                   - Utilizing VMS System Services and features from
                     application programs

                   - Intermediate VMS System Management, and DCL commands 
                     and procedures






 FEATURES          This course is primarily organized into (10) half-day 
 AND BENEFITS:     sessions, and is in lecture/lab format.  Students are 
                   provided with a course workbook, and a complete set of 
                   BASEstar user documentation.  

                   Significant emphasis is placed on developing integrated
                   solutions for business problems. Successful completion 
                   of this study provides students with a foundation 
                   for using BASEstar services to develop such solutions.  
                   Active participation in class discussions is strongly
                   encouraged.



   OBJECTIVES:     The primary objective of this course is to provide 
                   students with strategies for implementing BASEstar 
                   solutions in process and discrete environments. Upon 
                   completing this course, students should be able to 
                   successfully:


                   - Design, develop, test, and implement application 
                     programs using such BASEstar features as:
      
                     o  Data management 

                     o  Messaging

                     o  Process synchronization

                     o  Shop floor device communication


                   - Configure, modify, and delete BASEstar objects using 
                     each of the standard interfaces

                   - Export BASEstar data to Rdb databases

		   - Manage BASEstar users, devices, data structures, 
                     applications, and security

                   - Install and configure base software components, and 
                     balance system resources usage

                   - Effectively use BASEstar Library services

                   - Understand how BASEstar features satisfy integration
                     problems in manufacturing
