Tactical Planning Workstation Software Description

Abstract

This document describes the Tactical Planning Workstation software, including a dBASE scenario development system and a dBASE data recording and analysis system. These systems are integrated into the Experimental Development Demonstration and Integration Center (EDDIC) facility located at the Army Research Institute Field Unit at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. The Tactical Planning Workstation Functional Description provides a description of the system and definitions of terms. This software document is for programmers who require detailed knowledge of the software, data files, and command files. The overall system architecture of the Tactical Planning Workstation is in Section 2. Section 3 describes the operations and maintenance procedures. It includes a description of the command files, dBase operating instructions, installation procedures, and procedures to adapt the system for specific experiments. Section 4 describes the software and contains Ada Utilities, Ada programs, C utilities, and dBASE programs. Appendixes A, B, and C contain the Ada package specifications for the Ada utilities, the Ada programs, and the Ada and C bindings. Appendixes D and E describe the data base formats for the EDDIC workstation data bases and for the PC-based dBASE data bases. Appendix F describes the Unix environment variables. (KR)
