Ada (Trade Name) Foundation Technology. Volume 2. Software Requirements for WIS (WWMCCS (World Wide Military Command and Control System) Information System) Command Language Prototypes.

Abstract : The World Wide Military Command and Control System (WWMCCS) Information System (WIS) Joint Program Management Office (JPMO) requested that the Institute for Defense Analyses (IDA) develop specifications for prototype tools to support the design, implementation, and use of command languages. This report contains Software Requirements Specifications (SRS's) for such tools. The specifications were developed by members of a Task Force established by IDA and the IDA staff members listed on the title page of this report. The specifications were prepared over the period of August 1984-January 1986. Due to time constraints and funding limitations, not all of the specifications have been completed to the desired level of detail. Specifications were developed for the following eight projects; 1) CAIS Form On Page Terminal (Section 4.1); 2) CAIS Page On Bitmap Terminal (with proposed extensions to the Common Ada Programming Support Environment (APSE) Interface Set (CAIS) for bitmap terminals) (Section 4.2); 3) Network Based User Interface Management System (UIMS) (Section 4.3); 4)String Based Ada Command Language (SBACL)(Section 4.4); 5) Video Based Ada Command Language (VBACL) (Section 4.5); 6) Interaction Object UIMS (Section 4.6); 7) History and Logging (Section 4.7);and 8) Style Guide (Section 4.8).
