Week 05 Meetings and Activities

Integration of ORT with FOSSology Sync Meeting 5

(June 30, 2025)

Attendees

Discussion

  • Had a sync discussion with my mentor regarding further improvements to the NOMOS scanner plugin in ORT.
  • We specifically discussed optimizing resource usage, particularly how NOMOS allows setting the number of CPUs for scanning.
  • It was suggested to explore this option and consider adding it to the plugin configuration for better flexibility and control.
  • Also informed my mentor that I will be on exam leave for the next two weeks (Week 6 & Week 7), during which I will have limited availability but will try to stay loosely connected with the project.

Progress

  • Continued development and refinement of the NOMOS plugin integration in ORT.
  • Refactored parts of the codebase to improve structure and resolve existing issues from earlier feedback.
  • Successfully implemented support for configuring the number of CPUs used by NOMOS.
  • Default is set to 2, but it can be customized via the scanner’s configuration file.
  • This change improves scan performance tuning and offers better control over resource usage during analysis.

Next Steps

  • Improve error handling related to NOMOS execution and CPU configuration.
  • Reach out to the OSS maintainer to discuss how NOMOS should be released and how to structure its Docker image.
