System Design
A system design process that fully considers
test and integration early on will lead to a more cost-effective life-cycle
development. HRP Systems believes this approach should be applied to all
development activities. We can help you achieve cost goals and delivery
schedules while reducing the integration risks.
Application Software
The use of structured development methodologies
is key to the reduction of software life-cycle costs and facilitates the
creation of software reuse libraries. HRP Systems is well versed in structured
methods: a tailored use of 2167A, the IEEE standards with a broad experience
in the use of Ada as a primary development language and PDL. In developing
over one million lines of codes, HRP Systems personnel have effectively
used these methodologies.
Data Reduction Tools
An integrated toolset consisting of Data
Collection, Reduction and Analysis Software (DCRAS) provides essential capabilities
to support all performance verification activities. HRP Systems has developed
DCRAS tools for processor sizing and timing analysis, software integration
and test, subsystem integration, and system performance evaluation.
Simulation
The use of simulation throughout the development
process, from concept definition and verification, through final test and
integration, assures achievement of all technical goals and substantially
reduces development risk. HRP Systems has developed simulation tools which
allow for rapid prototyping during system definition, software module build-up,
and Incremental Subsystem Integration (ISI). These tools are available and
can be customized for your application.
Test and Integration
Efficient and effective testing relies
on an incremental building block approach and the extensive use of simulation
for subsystems which are not available when testing begins. HRP Systems
has developed test plans, procedures, and results documentation for all
levels of testing, from software integration to software IV & V, for subsystem
acceptance testing through subsystem integration and testing through system
performance analysis.
