Software Test Engineering: Analysis of Trace Semantics

The Army Future Force will include emerging C2 systems which are far from being compatible with systems currently deployed in the Army, Joint, Multi-National and other government agencies. Our solution is a pluggable connector architecture, referred to herein as Ontological, Application-independent Translator System "OATS", where ontology disparities are quickly resolved because their semantic meaning are defined within a shared ontology which provides a multi-axis, drill-down capability to reason how syntactically disparate elements semantically correlate. Autonomous agents are used to build XML representations of the database, service and message data structures where inference engines are used for querying, checking, transforming and filtering information through a graphical representation that allows easy navigation and understanding of data structure element relationships.
