Objetivo The objective of the project is to:- Introduce a standard integrated software development approach that includes: iterative development steps, object oriented programming techniques, and object oriented management issues.- Apply the method to a well-defined and typical software baseline project. - Evaluate and disseminate the results to the organisation. Determine whether object oriented technologies with benefit could be applied into the business in a broader scale.The expected results are increase of:- productivity of software development- reuse of software components- quality and reliability of software, and - support by appropriate toolsTHE EXPERIMENTThe objectives above are achieved as follows:a) Define an object oriented software development method based on Rumbaugh OMT, modified and extended to fit into the software development of the organisation. Produce a draft of a future software development handbook based on object oriented technologies.b) Use the specified software method on a baseline project. Here is focused on experimenting with:- Fast prototyping- Iterative steps with OO analysis, design, and implementation- Object oriented reuse aspectsc) Evaluate the results against predefined success criteria and determine whether the new method should be implemented in the organisation on a broad scale.The baseline project DEHAWK MMI is part of a large software intensive Command and Control system called DEHAWK. The DEHAWK MMI implements the Man Machine Interface to DEHAWK and shall be able to display a "situational picture" on a special purpose workstationEXPECTED IMPACT AND EXPERIENCEWith the software process improvements described in the project, the company will be more attractive to customers as a contractor of integrated electronic systems because of: - shorter development time of software components, - compliance with new software standards, and - better compliance between user requirements and actual implemented system. In addition, the company will be more attractive as a company for potential high qualified employees because of the:- general raise of the educational level of the employees concerning software development, and- use of frontier software development processes and tools.
