Software Requirements Specification for the Mapping and Graphic Information Capability (MAGIC). Volume 1. Human Interface CSCI

Abstract

This Software Requirements Specification (SRS) specifies the engineering and qualification requirements for the Human Interface GSCI of the Mapping and Graphic Information Capability (MAGIC). Furthermore, this specification will be used as the basis for the design and formal testing of that CSCI. The SRS is divided into 3 major sections. These sections cover Engineering Requirements (Section 3), Qualification Requirements (Section 4), and Preparation for Delivery (Section 5). the Human Interface Computer Software Configuration Item functions as the logical hub of all MAGIC processing activities and presents a user/friendly graphical user interface (GUI) to the user that is compliant with Open Software Foundation (OSF)/Motif. The user may choose menu selections with either keystrokes or mouse clicks and dialog boxes are provided for those instances when the user is required to provide additional information before MAGIC can continue processing. When a user initiates a MAGIC session, the program menus are presented to the user, and control of program actions begin in this CSCI. As users navigate through the menu system to an activity they want to perform, control is eventually passed to the appropriate functional CSCI (or Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) package), such as Data Management or Business Graphics, to perform the desired activity. The Human Interface CSCI also provides context sensitive help that is compliant with Motif applications.
