org.cristalise : cristalise

cristalise · Cristal-ise is a description-driven software platform originally developed to track the construction of the CMS ECAL detector of the LHC at CERN. This is its core library, known as the kernel, which manages business objects called Items. Items are entirely configured from data, called descriptions, held in other Items. Every change of a state in an Item is a consequence of an execution of an activity in that Item's lifecycle, meaning that Cristal-ise applications are completely traceable, even in their design. It also supports extensive versioning of Item description data, giving the system a high level of flexibility.
