Honeywell ProtoTech. Phase 1

Abstract

This report describes the Environment for Software Prototyping (ESP). Within ESP, prototyping is viewed as an experimental process whose results drive the evolution of a domain theory in the context of a megaprogramming environment. ESP is used to evaluate the nature and efficiency of technologies that address requirements unique to prototyping. ESP consists of a component shelf containing reusable components (i.e., a component consists of a specification and a set of implementations), a repository for reusable software architectures (i.e., an architecture defines the structural characteristics of a system), and a workbench (i.e., a workspace for conducting prototyping experiments). ESP provides an environment for bootstrapping a megaprogramming capability.
