Software
LiKee information system is built on J2EE technologies, using Spring Framework 2.5.2 and ORM technology Hibernate 3.3.0. LiKee runs on a web application server and it was tested on following open source servers:
-
Apache Tomcat 6.0.18; 5.5.26; 5.5.25
-
GlassFish 2.1-b60e
-
Jetty 6.1.14
LiKee uses a database for storage of configuration and monitoring logs. The distribution contains open source embedded database platform HSQL DB for simple and fast usage. MySQL is another supported database option.
Reference JVM version is 1.6.0_13-b03.
The system has web-based user interface. Supported web browsers are IE 6, 7, 8 and Firefox 3.0.8.
Hardware
The main hardware component of the system is a serial GSM modem. It is used for realization of phone calls and sending short text messages. Usage of an Ethernet/RS232 converter between computer and GSM modem is an option for easier and faster communication with the modem.
A standard RXTX library for serial communication is used for connecting GSM modem without Ethernet converter. This library and an operating system dependent RXTX library must be added to the used application server (see Installation).
In case of using GSM modem with Ethernet converter, the converter needs to be set up correctly (IP address and communication port).
LiKee monitoring system was tested on following hardware devices:
-
GSM modem Maestro-100 lite (+RXTX library)
-
GSM modem Maestro-100 lite with Ethernet converter GNOME 232
