MOST EFFECTIVE APPLICATIONS OF ADA TO AIRCREW TRAINING DEVICES

THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS EFFORT IS TO EFFECTIVELY DEMONSTRATE THE APPLICABILITY OF ADA LANGUAGE TO THE ATD DEVELOPMENT PROCESS, AND REDUCE THE RISK ASSOCIATED WITH THE TRANSLATION OF THE ADA LANGUAGE FOR FUTURE ATD DEVELOPMENTS. THE PROJECT SUCCESS IS ENHANCED THROUGH THE UTILIZATION OF EXPERIENCED SOFTWARE ENGINEERS WHO HAVE DEVELOPED COMPLEX SIMULATION PROGRAMS COUPLED WITH AN EXPERT IN THE DEVELOPMENT AND APPLICATION OF THE ADA LANGUAGE. TO FULLY UTILIZE THIS CAPABILITY, THE PROPOSED EFFORT WILL DEMONSTRATE THE USE OF ADA ON SEVERAL ATD MODULES BEFORE ADA IS APPLIED ON A LARGER SCALE TO ATD SOFTWARE. THESE DEMONSTRATION CASES WILL UTILIZE THE SOFTWARE TOOLS WHICH ARE PART OF THE ADA PROGRAMMING SOFTWARE ENVIRONMENT (APSE). IN THIS WAY, THE DOD RESOURCES SPENT ON THE DESIGN OF THIS NEW LANGUAGE CAN BE BEST UTILIZED FOR ATD PURPOSES.
