The Mission Management Aid (MMA) program at British Aerospace Defence includes research in the areas of Sensor Data Fusion, Sensor Management, Tactical Situation Assessment and Tactical Decision Aids. Each project has developed and continues to refine workstation prototypes. As the technology in these prototypes matures it is used to update and improve an integrated MMA system prototype. This paper is concerned with the integration process and the issues surrounding it. The factors which influenced progress during integration include the use of compatible development platforms and programming languages for the prototypes, and the choice of a host architecture which allows a flexible approach to the MMA architecture. The benefits gained from the integration framework include the ability to develop integrated displays and controls, to evaluate performance and effectiveness metrics, and to investigate the boundaries and interactions between the subsystems.
