Integrated Battlefield Effects Research for the National Training Center. Appendix K. ARTBASS Conversion Design and Results.

Abstract

Based on the specified ground rules, a design for the conversion effort was developed, and the conversion performed. Section 2 describes the design behind conversion of the ARTBASS model, and Section 3 contains the design of the Interactive Display Component (the interface of the model with the two types of workstations). Section 4 describes the conversion goals accomplished through use of software tools performing standard conversion tasks. Software changes necessary for ARTBASS to operate on the VAX, but are not compatible with the Perkin-Elmer computer system are identified and those changes made that are compatible with the Perkin-Elmer are described. During performance of the conversion activities, errors were discovered in the ARTBASS code. Most of these errors were corrected on the VAX version of ARTBASS. All of the errors are defined. The final section defines the procedures and techniques necessary to transfer ARTBASS code from the VAX system back to a Perkin-Elmer system.
