View Page History
The first 3 years of PLANETS saw (further) development of Dioscuri and UVC by KB-NL and IBM respectively. In Year 4 as part of an emulation integration project Dioscuri and UVC were developed into a version with a PLANETS wrapper. This way they could be deployed in the Interoperability Framework (IF) in a local deployment as migration by emulation services.

An important step was the development of the [CreateView?|planetssuite:CreateView] command used to fire-up the emulators from within the PLANETS Testbed and PLATO. In the second half of Year 4 the wrapped Dioscuri and UVC were further developed into webversions so they could be deployed on the Central Instance also.

h2. Dioscuri
Dioscuri is especially designed for digital preservation by being more durable and flexible than other emulators. The design shows a modular emulator, whereby each hardware component is represented as a module in the emulator. By combining all modules a full hardware emulator is created.
