Survey of Software Development Technology at the Naval Surface Weapons Center, Dahlgren Laboratory,

Abstract

Systems being developed at the Naval Surface Weapons Center, Dahlgren Laboratory (NSWC/DL), have benefitted from the formulation and refinement of techniques and technologies used in software development. Many ideas have been considered, implemented, improved, or rejected during the thirty years of developing software at the Dahlgren Laboratory. Some of the more important concepts that are used in the software development process are simulation modeling of hardware/software systems, program design language and structured programming languages, wrap-around simulations and instrumented emulators, and dedicated software support sites. These design and analysis tools and methodologies, when judiciously used, have helped to produce quality software at NSWC/DL. (Author)
