- --= ABSTRACT ===============================================--
- -- As a demonstration of the use of Ada for command and control
- -- applications, the current airborne and ground mobile systems at SAC
- -- (600,000 LOC - JOVIAL) are being consolidated into a mobile data
- -- management system using a common data format and query language with
- -- graphical display capabilities. The system includes an integrated
- -- data management system, automatic and manual update of the data, ad
- -- hoc data retrieval, building and maintaining displays as well as
- -- interaction with the working file, display transfers, and manual
- -- backup. It uses a multiple task environment to interface with several
- -- I/O devices, enter data into and retrieve data from similar systems
- -- across the communication links, and provide timely access to about 500
- -- million characters of data.
- --
- -- Three packages (two generic) are provided from the MIMS at
- -- this time: balanced trees, source scanner, and variable lists.
