The rapid advances in micro computer technology and the mass marketing of the personal micro computer have resulted in dramatic cost reductions in hardware and software. also, the signing of the air force, navy and marine micro computer requirements contract has resulted in a dramatic 50% reduction… More

Use of the final report will permit a cost effective selection of test equipment to improve the operational availability of current prime systems at an affordable cost. the programs will not be faced with the expense and time of developing, testing, and supporting new test and calibration equipment… More

The results of proper testability design implementation assure that a system can be thoroughly tested with minimum effort and cost, and that high confidence can be ascribed to the test results. the success or failure of design for testability is largely dependent on how well the air force specifies… More

The following technical objectives will be achieved in this study: 1. assess the automatic test requirements for electro-optical (e/o) units under test (uuts). 2. identify automatic test equipment (ate) standards for testing electro-optical units under test (uut). 3. identify suitable mate testing… More

The mate program office has requested a review of the mate general purpose electrical interface connector standard to improve the guidance to develop the mate interface connector assembly (ica). this study will gather information, analyze the results and provide recommendations to verify that the… More

This proposal applies expert system technology to enhance the usability and maintainability of the mate guides. the central theme presented in this proposal is the idea of representing the technical information contained in the mate guides in a way that corresponds to the needs of every audience… More

This proposal applies expert system technology to aid in the complex and time consuming task of creating a request for proposal (rfp) for the development of automatic test equipment (ate) in accordance with modular automatic test equipment (mate) guides, specifications and applicable military… More

It is difficult to exchange and use information between different office automation software tools. The user must spend excessive time learning and linking tools rather than doing the primary job. The proposed open framework expert system approach makes the technology of the tools transparent to the… More
