Computing Devices Canada (CDC), Nepean, Ontario, a
General Dynamics Company, has been certified to Software
Engineering Institute (SEI) capability and maturity model
(CMM) level 3, by a team of independent auditors. This is
a significant achievement for the company and provides
assurance to its customers that software engineering is
being carried out at CDC in an organised, well-defined,
repeatable and well-understood fashion.
A major ingredient in the achievement of this success has
been an Intranet-Web-based document tailoring utility
(DTU), written in Visual Prolog and running on an OS/2
Domino Go Web Server. The utility provides CDC's software
engineers with instant access to the company's process
documents and policies, and allows them to tailor and
generate MIL-STD 498 style documents in a small fraction
of the time previously required. It allows them to see
examples of existing document sections as well as generic
document text for each section. Users can edit the content
of the sections, plus "tailor" sections in or out, all
while on-line. Once satisfied, they can generate the
complete document with keywords customised to their current
project.
The CGI programs that drive the server side of the DTU are
written in Visual Prolog for OS/2 which provides the
development productivity and run-time performance the
project demanded.
The Domino Go Web Server on OS/2 easily handles the
processing load of the DTU, dispatching the CGI processes
rapidly enough to allow rapid interactive expansion and
collapsing of document sections by end-users. This
activity is a key indicator of response, since it can only
be fully handled on the server side (the state of the
expanded or collapsed view persists between user sessions).
