An Incremental Language Conversion Method To Convert C++ Into Ada95, Ding-Yuan Sheu Dec 1996

An Incremental Language Conversion Method To Convert C++ Into Ada95, Ding-Yuan Sheu

Theses and Dissertations

This thesis develops a methodology to incrementally convert a legacy object oriented C++ application into Ada95. Using the experience of converting a graphic application, called Remote Debriefing Tool (RDT), in the Graphics Lab of the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), this effort defined a process to convert a C++ application into Ada95. The methodology consists of five phases: (1) reorganizing the software application, (2) breaking mutual dependencies, (3) creating package specifications to interface the existing C++ classes, (4) converting C++ code into Ada programs, and (5) embellishing. This methodology used the GNAT's C++ low level interface capabilities to support …


Implementation Of An Ada95 Crosscompiler For The Real-Time Executive For Military Systems (Rtems), Kendall M. Lemley Jr. Dec 1996

Implementation Of An Ada95 Crosscompiler For The Real-Time Executive For Military Systems (Rtems), Kendall M. Lemley Jr.

Theses and Dissertations

This thesis represents a continuation of the assessment of the Unified Telerobotics Architecture Project (UTAP), a proposed Air Force standard. This architecture was developed by the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the National Institute of Standards under contract to the Air Force Materiel Command Robotics and Automation Center of Excellence at Kelly AFB, Texas. Due to operating system constraints, the only UTAP implementation to date has required a separate software interface layer, adding complexity and overhead to the overall system, while reducing portability. This thesis proposes a long term effort to design and implement UTAP-compliant application software devoid of this …


Simworx: An Ada Distributed Simulation Application Framework Supporting Hla And Dis, Earl C. Pilloud Dec 1996

Simworx: An Ada Distributed Simulation Application Framework Supporting Hla And Dis, Earl C. Pilloud

Theses and Dissertations

This research consisted of the analysis, design, and implementation of a reusable application framework for distributed simulation which is compliant with both the DoD High Level Architecture (HLA) for Modeling and Simulation and the Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) standards. The goal was to create an Ada-based system for experimentation in distributed simulation. A subsidiary goal was to integrate the system with an existing Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) application framework for virtual simulations, Easy_Sim. The application framework was designed using object oriented techniques to enable experimenters to customize it via inheritance extension. The application framework, named SimWorx, consists of …
