LA Ada*TEC Dinner Meeting Topic: Ada Environment Standardization: Report from the Captain Speaker: Patricia Oberndorf (NOSC) KIT Chair Date: Monday, June 20, 1983 Price: Dinner (Tax & Tip inc.) with Reservations $12.00 Time: 6:30 p.m. Cocktails Program only Free 7:00 p.m. Dinner Validated Parking $ 1.00 8:00 p.m. Program Place: TraveLodge Reservations & Information: 9750 Airport Blvd. Cheryl Chapman 536-7281 Los Angeles, CA before 2pm Fri, Jun 17, `83 Abstract: The history and status of the two DoD teams - the KAPSE Interface Team (KIT) and the KAPSE Interface Team from Industry and Academia (KITIA) - will be presented. Their charter is to define a set of interfaces which can be used as a DoD standard for achieving the ability to share tools and data bases between conforming APSEs. Biography: Mrs. Oberndorf was born in the fine northern town of Minneapolis in ... (as you might guess - I hate biographies!) But, seriously ... B.S. in Math/Computer Science from Oregon State University M.S. in Computer Science from UCSD Started working for the Naval Electronics Laboratory Center (now the Naval Ocean Systems Center) in 1974. Started working environment/tool projects in 1975. Participated in the reviews that lead to the selection of the AIE contract winner and was subsequently chosen by the AJPO to head the KIT effort, starting in January 1982. Note: Election of officers this meeting. Nominees are Hal Hart (Vice Chair), Cheryl Chapman (Treasure), Carol LeDoux (Secretary), Mike Hogan (Industrial Representative Committee Chairman). Additional nominations from the floor (or any one standing on it) will be accepted at the meeting. Future AdaTEC Events: July 14: John Forman (Texas Instruments), "The APSE Interactive Monitor", TRW E2/Presentation Room, 6:30pm.

y fashion. The project did successfully produce an initial PA-APSE that served as a test bed for a new prototype support tool, an automated Unit Development Folder (UDF) capability. Partial development of the automated UDF prototype revealed new issues to be faced in the evolution of mature APSEs, thus confirming the potential value of such a PA-APSE test bed. The project also analyzed other issues to be faced in the evolution of mature APSEs; these issues clustered in several principal areas: (1) man-machine interfaces and the Tool Extension Paradigm, (2) methodologies and environment capabilities, (3) software structure, system conventions and virtual KAPSE interfaces, and (4) master (project) database issues. This presentation discusses the results of the feasibility analysis. Judy Bamberger is currently a member of the PA-APSE design and implementation team. Previous assignments at TRW have included Software Engineering and Technical Assistance on the MX JOVIAL (J73) compilers. She holds a Master's in Education (Junior High School), which has provided insight into how to teach concepts germane to all programming languages (notably, JOVIAL (J73) and Ada), and is currently working on her Master's in Computer Science at UCLA. She is the chairperson of the Education Committee of the Ada-JOVIAL Users Group; she presents J73 tutorials at national meetings; and she will be delighted to present Ada tutorials to interested groups.
