If you followed the group, you would have noticed several examples of
AWS based web sites being mentioned this spring.

A photo critic Web site (in French):

   http://v2p.fr.eu.org

This is based on AWS using most of the fun stuff in it, it was a test
bed for the Web_Block support.

It is OpenSource:

Since this is a recurrent question I have compiled a list of sample 
websites implemented in AWS and added it to AdaCommons wiki. Everyone is 
invited to add any other site to the list.

Perhaps not fun, but I find them cool
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyVDMp2bL9c>

I communicate with them via AWS, http POST.
No I don't control each one of them independently, but provide them
with assignments, like 
'take bin 1, 3, 4, and 5 and put them in port 2.
 tell me when you deliver each one of them.'

Our installation has conveyors at the port, giving the pickstation a 10 bin buffer.

This is within a Warehouse Control System.

We also use AWS as a web server within our Warehouse management system,
making the operator at infeed take a photo of bad/broken pallets at goods reception with a handheld device, uploading via AWS, for further treatment
in WMS/ERP - ie tell the transporter to be more careful...


At some site we, use AWS as a messagebroker, providing web-service interface
in one end, and inhouse format in the other end.

Great product. 

We use it on Windows and AIX.

Excellent!

Is the whole system (or some high proportion) Ada?

"Towers of Hanoi" comes to mind for some reason...
I still have an Algol-W implementation somewhere.

The autostore system itself is probably c :-(
(Would be nice to redo it in Ada though)


The WCS system, that tells them to do, on a higher level is all Ada.
(WCS =Warehouse Control System)
That system talks to conveyors (usually PLCs) stacker cranes, labelizers,
AGVs, LGVs (auto trucks), selects locations to store goods within a warehouse
and of course talks to WMS/ERP systems.  (where we use AWS sometimes)
In this case we have 


  ERP  
    |
  WMS
    |        
  WCS
    | 
Conveyer + Autostore

where the WCS is all Ada.


Sattmate WCS in Ada
<http://www.consafelogistics.com/Our%20offer/Warehouse%20Management/SattMate%20WCS>

there is also a combined WCS/WMS that is all Ada

(Except the gui, in both cases)

SattStore, WMS/WCS in Ada
