COSAGE (Concepts Analysis Agency's Combat Sample Generator) Analysis and Design Report. Volume 1.

Abstract

Science Applications, Inc. (SAI) has conducted a study of Concepts Analysis Agency's Combat Sample Generator (COSAGE) Program. This program consists of over 30,000 lines of SIMSCRIPT source code. It requires approximately 1.5 hours of SPERRY 1100/83 CPU time to execute and the maximum amount of static memory available (262k words). The goal of this study is to identify fruitful areas for COSAGE optimization which will reduce the COSAGE memory requirement as well as the execution time. To accomplish this, SAI has performed static and dynamic analyses of the source code. The purpose of this report is threefold: To present the results of the dynamic analyses effort; To preview the recommended changes; and to provide suggested COSAGE model PREAMBLE revisions. This report is presented in three volumes. The remainder of Volume I is organized in five sections: a Section 2 presents the tools and techniques which were utilized to perform the dynamic analyses. Section 3 discusses the dynamic analyses performed and the results obtained. Section 4 previews the recommended optimization changes. Section 5 contains revision recommendations for the COSAGE model PREAMBLE. Section 6 provides a summary of the optimization effort.
