Architecture

The two most important packages of the AutoQUEST architecture are the AutoQUEST Core Library and the AutoQUEST Plug-ins. The AutoQUEST Core Library bundles all platform-independent parts defined of the conceptual framework on which AutoQUEST is based (see GeneralInformation/Concept), while the AutoQUEST Plug-ins contain the translation layer and platform layer components. The architecture is completed by the AutoQUEST Frontend package that provides user interfaces and an AutoQUEST Utilities package that contains supporting components. The following UML implementation diagram depicts the architecture in detail.
