SunGuide is a distributed application comprising over 80 distinct modules that communicate via XML messages as described in the various SunGuide Interface Control Documents (ICDs).
Users communicate with SunGuide via a standalone application called the Operator Map.
Subsystems are modules that manage a type of data. The data may be generated by users (e.g. Event Management), or by devices. Subsystems that manage devices communicate with these devices via other modules called Drivers.
