Abstract

The need for tight project control has long been recognized within the Department of Defense (DOD). Obtaining the greatest possible return on the contract dollar has been the goal of project officers. In the area of software development, interest in achieving efficiency has grown concurrently with a desire to obtain greater reliability in the delivered software packages. This paper discusses the heretofore largely theoretical concepts and techniques of software engineering, Top-Down Structured Programming, the Chief Programmer Team, and the Program Support Library as applied to the team dynamics of a stand-alone software utility produced by Honeywell Information Systems Incorporated, Federal Systems Operations [HIS/FSO] under contract to the Command and Control Technical Center, WWMCCS ADP Directorate (CCTC/WAD), of the Defense Communications Agency.
