  • 10X development productivity increase
  • 5X integration and test productivity increase
  • Real time processing and memory usage results similar to hand coding
• Command Program autocoding on benchmark programs demonstrated
• Proof of concept to control DFG through API to command program
• Autocode quality matched hand code
• Tool evaluation criteria established and conducted

• Model Year Software Architecture
• Commercial microkernel technology developments
• MCCI developed run time system
• Various PGM development BAAs and SBIRs
• Lockheed Martin ATL IRAD investment in GEDAE™ tool
