Remote control and instrumentation of Android devices

Abstract

This paper presents the extensions added to the measurement and monitoring tool TestelDroid, to support remote control and instrumentation of Android devices. The extensions include support for Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments (SCPI), cOntrol and Management Framework (OMF) and OMF Measurement Library (OML). SCPI is the most widespread interface for measurement equipment control in many areas, for example, electronics or telecommunications. On the other hand, the support of technologies like OMF and OML provides powerful orchestration framework languages which reduces the time required to define experiments.
