Monitoring an Ada Software Development,
Abstract
This newsletter is the second in a series describing a collaborative effort by research teams from General Electric and the University of Maryland. The purpose of this research effort is to monitor the use of Ada on a realistically large and complex software development project within industry. In particular, we are interested in investigating areas of success and areas of difficulty in designing and coding with Ada so that proper emphasis will be placed upon these areas in future Ada training courses. We are also interested in identifying metrics that are useful for evaluating and predicting the complexity, quality, or cost of Ada programs. This newsletter briefly describes our approach to data collection follwed by a description of the software development project that we are monitoring. We then address several central issues related to the use of Ada in the design phase of this project.
