inconsoSCE is built based on a shell concept. This enables the consequent modularization of the solution that is the pre-requisite for the release capability of inconsoSCE. Around the core (inner shell), the logistics functions are wrapped. These functions are supplemented with the communication layer (outer shell) that consists of the user interface and the interfaces.
