BHT - Past, present & future Where have we been, where are we today and where are we going…?
Review of year 2000 • 1st year with WebBHT • ~ 1100 BHT Reports on a busy day (Dec 2000) • BHT is used 24 H / day • Majority of users “happy” • Performance better than we thought • Yearly Bookclosing • Lot of work in BHT • Very small team (1 staff) • ~ 240 Remedies to BHT Team in 2000 • Less russian collaboration • No technical students • “Temperature Check” • DPO’s • Improved stability + performance • Faster • Less “blockings”
Review of year 2000 ctd.. • Improved functionality • Electronics Pool • Team accounting modifications • Monthly Totals for Contracts • Improved Extraction/Bookclosing • Usage of (EDH) WorkFlow • To be continued 2001… • Improved Admin Functionality • No more server side Java Scripts • To be continued 2001… • Improved Technical and User Documentation • http://ais.cern.ch/apps/bht/welcome.html
Where are we today? • General Application Status • Stable application – much improved • Unstable extraction: Many data problems • Few functionality- and change requests • Not CERN ID dependent, instead PID • Ongoing Work • New Extraction with Oracle WorkFlow • Extension of Admin Tools • User Contacts: SPL, Teams • Support • AIS Help Desk does a lot ~ 30 % of all Remedies to BHT • 2nd , 3rd line support can be improved (with a larger team) • More User Contact?
Where are we going – BHT 2001 • Continue Extraction work – Better Data • More reliable data – no interdependencies between ORIAC and SIRIAC • Easier maintenance – Today it costs a lot • Higher visibility and easier error-tracing • ARTify BHT – EDH/HRT Architecture • Conform to the rest of the group • More standardised foundation • More potentiality for re-use – Easier to add functionality • Easier maintenance • Better application
Where are we going – BHT 2001 • New markets for BHT? • SPL • FI – more data maintenance “outsourced” • External Teams – Do they need more functionality? • Activity Based Costing? • Improve our Client Service • More “temperature checks” – User Contacts • More Structured support (larger team)
HRT • Phase 1 : Migration to Web • December 2000 : Testing with Key Users • January 2001 : Feedback Loop • Early 2001 • Production • Switch off XL version • Phase 2 : Extended Functionality • Time dimension • Targetted function areas, e.g. training
