FDS-TADPS Integration Study
Department of National Defense - Defense Research
Establishment Valcartier. Feb. 88 - Mar. 89
Study for establishing a solid knowledge about Command and
Control application and for developing a new message concept between different
types of computers. (VAX-VMS, Intel Unix, RS-232 links, modems, uucp) that
update an Oracle SQL database. (Field Development System)
API Evaluation - CSE #W2213-0-2869/01-ER
Department of National Defense - Communications Security
Establishment - Ottawa -89
Environmental study and recommendations upon the setup of an
X-Window/Unix development team.
Settlor Software Development #W2213-0-0251/01-ER
Department of National Defense - Communications Security
Establishment - Ottawa - 88-89
Addition of a specialized editor in a multi-tasking DOS
environment (Midi-Plus) for data acquisitioon, scientific instrument control,
message and file exchange. This project required the creation of specific
communication protocols to remove delays generated by the satellite link.
(IEE-488,RS232(16 ports)), satellite link, DOS-Unix link) This system
worked 24 hours-7days a week. CSE does the software maintenance
themselves.
Settlor Forms Development #W2213-0-5782/01-ER
Department of National Defense - Communications Security
Establishment - Ottawa 88-89
Design and implementation of self describing forms. The
tables and forms definitions do not need to be present to modify or view the
data.
Selection of an Application Program Interface (API)
for a Tactical Cē Testbed # W7701-9-0716/01-XSK
Department of National Defense - Defense Research
Establishment Valcartier. Jul. 89 - Oct. 90
Tools evaluation and development for Sun workstations.
(Motif, XView)
RPC (Remote Procedure Calls) clients and servers.
Dynamic menus using files or databases
Dynamic lists linked to databases
Oracle - X-Window forms
Low-level X-Window services for interconnecting different
X components.
IPC (Inter Process Communications) Services for
facilitate the exchange of data between applications. Used as a real-time
signal between RPCs and applications.
Oracle Services
avoiding usage of Pro-C pre-compiler filtering the database engine.
General services (strings, timers, lists)
Design and implementation of a Control and Command
Application : tools integration to GIS (Geographical Information System)
application.
Definition of a Prototype for a Worksharing Study within a
Divisional HQ Cell # W7701-9-4138/01-XSK
Department of National Defense - Defense Research
Establishment Valcartier. Apr. 90 - Nov. 90
Definition of technical requirements related to the
implementation of worksharing within a divisional Head Quarter Cell.
Generation of a prototype and C++ tools to provide the sharing capability to
regular applications. This application has needed previous tools (RPC,IPC)
and InterViews(C++) for fast screen updates between stations.
Development of the Second Version of the Worksharing
Prototype #W7701-0-3215/01-XSK
Department of National Defense - Defense Research
Establishment Valcartier. Nov 90 - Aug 91
Design and implementation of a more elaborate
prototype. Dynamic configuration and more types of messages and reports.
Migration of the Worksharing Prototype # W7701-1-0651/01-XSK
Department of National Defense - Canadian Force Base
Valcartier. Aug 91 - Aug 92
Evaluation of transferring prototypes to stations using SCO. (Motif)
Interim Operational Capability Software Development
Environment

Department of National Defense - Canadian Force Base
Kingston. Aug 92- Aug 95
Provide the software development group of the First
Division in Kingston tools and methods required for the elaboration of projects
on SCO and Windows. Implementation of a configuration management system
based on sccs supporting many users working on the same software components.
Development of messaging system under SCO (UNIX, Motif)
and Windows. Most of the components are portable from Windows to Unix and
inversely. Programmers can develop for Windows and X-Window since the same
methods and concepts are used in the elaboration of the man-machine
interface. The prototyping method used includes tools allowing an expert
user to draw and comment the user interface screens himself. The screens
are then directly in the prototype. Communications system uses TCP-IP on
LANs et fast-speed modems for external networking.
The system includes graphical editors (modified InterViews
(C++)), raster-vector with spatial references. The users can generate maps
for planning or representing a real situation from the database. (140 X-Window,
35 Windows).
