Project Overview

The DataFrame project is an implementation of an Abstract Data Type (ATD) and Data Transfer Object (DTO).

The ADT facet of the project involves the creation of a data type with no business or domain logic and only data accessors.

The DTO facet involves the creation of a binary wire format which allows for the efficient storage and transmission of the ADT in a platform independent manner.

Real World Use

This concept was developed in the telecommunications industry (data communications), applied to the electric utility markets (distribution automation) and is currently being applied to general IT applications. This project is the result of several complete re-writes and represents the lessons learned from multiple applications.
