The SDF (Software Development Facility) is a distributed software development environment for the production of tactical avionics radar software. It includes support software tools on the IBM 4341, the Gould Sel 27/67/87/97 series, and the HP 1000. At present more than a dozen of these computers are included in the SDF and the number is climbing. Considerable effort has been expended (and continues to be expended) to provide a common feel to the tool across this range of processors. The tactical software itself is split between two processors which provide essentially no software support. For current and new projects Hughes has developed an operating system for one of the processors. Previously both processors ran without employing operating systems. No other support software exists on either tactical processor. Usage of the SDF in its current form, began late in the summer of 1984. Most of the tools had been exercised by mid-November. This paper will describe the SDF and present preliminary experiences/lessons resulting from its early usage.
