Book Description
The U.S. Army lacks a single automated fire support system. The goal of Army's ongoing project of Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System (AFATDS) is to integrate all of its fire power under a single automated system to provide an efficient fire support in the battlefield. AFATDS is being implemented using the language ADA for battalion and above level. The problem for this research is to implement AFATDS for battalion (just for technical fire direction) level and below. In addition, we want to add a Graphical User Interface (GUI), use modern software engineering principles and add multitasking. The approach taken was to apply object-oriented paradigm for the design and development of the battery level of AFATDS using Microsoft Windows' operating environment which provides (non-preemptive) multitasking and a GUI, and Borland C++ as the development tool. The results are as follows: The battery level software of AFATDS is implemented. The GUI provided a better interface which facilitates easier training Ref. 17. Multitasking allowed multiple firing missions to execute concurrently which was not possible with BCS. Object- oriented features of Borland C++ provided 60% improvement for GUI development than traditional programming languages.

An Attempt to Design an Army Field Artillery Tactical Data System Simulation Capability

Languages : en
Pages : 37
Book Description
This project was intended to have been part of a larger effort to identify the man-machine transactions that could cause difficulty in the acquisition and retention of skills required to operate Army Field Artillery Tactical Data Systems (AFATDS) and that are related to the software generated interface characteristics of the system and to develop ways of countering these difficulties. This project focused on developing a simulation capability (SIMCAP) in which these difficulties could be researched. The decision was made to use the existing TACFIRE Training System (TTS) to provide the simulation capability. A validation effort was undertaken to shake down and debug the equipment, facilities, and procedures that make up the TTS SIMCAP. The components of the TTS SIMCAP are assessed with regard to seven characteristics for an ideal SIMCAP: The general information processing functions required to coordinate artillery fires; Man's information processing capabilities; The characteristics of the information processing interface; Characteristics of combat situations; Meaningful operator performance measures; Modifiability of operator/commander consoles; and A readily programmable and expandable computer to operate the SIMCAP.
