1 I̲N̲T̲R̲O̲D̲U̲C̲T̲I̲O̲N̲
ACE is currently working on plans for an Integrated
Systems Support Centre (ISSC) in which some aspects
of software maintenance will be handled.
The ISSC will undertake corrective software maintenance
and minor enhancements but is not staffed for major
system upgrades.
The systems currently proposed for ISSC control are
o CAMPS and its associated peripheral devices e.g.
OCR
o SCARS and its associated peripherals
o PROTOCOL CONVERTER
The ISSC will be housed in a building in a site in
Belgium.
The ISSC will also have the capability to handle firmware
changes.
NOTE: This document is draft and unofficial. It is provided
to enable CR to properly assess SHAPE's needs such
that individual systems may be purchased which will
fit into the overall ISSC Scheme.
Equipment quantities given are suggested on the basis
of my understanding. CR should propose amendments as
they see fit and are invited to comment on the allocation
of functions to machines and the capabilities of the
machines proposed to handle such functions.
2 O̲V̲E̲R̲V̲I̲E̲W̲
The complement of CAMPS related systems to be proved
is shown on figure 1. The diagrams for each system
with specific suggested equipment quantities is shown
in subsequent figures.
The component parts are as follows:
a) C̲A̲M̲P̲S̲ ̲R̲E̲F̲E̲R̲E̲N̲C̲E̲ ̲S̲Y̲S̲T̲E̲M̲
This has the purposes of fault finding through
attempting to reproduce errors found in the field
and to functionally and stress test new releases
of software prior to distribution. It will also
be used for system integration and test. The CAMPS
software under test needs to run with debugging/trace
facilities on the reference system.
b) C̲A̲M̲P̲S̲ ̲D̲E̲V̲E̲L̲O̲P̲M̲E̲N̲T̲ ̲S̲Y̲S̲T̲E̲M̲
This is provided for the following activities:
o Unit and Module code corrections
o Recompilation and unit and module tests
o Package Integration and Test
o System Generation
o Configuration Management and SW Library
o Production of disks/floppies for changes
o Data Base configuration management and
generation
It shall be possible to develop SW for the protocol
converter on this machine.

3.2 S̲O̲F̲T̲W̲A̲R̲E̲
a) O̲p̲e̲r̲a̲t̲i̲o̲n̲a̲l̲ ̲s̲o̲f̲t̲w̲a̲r̲e̲
The software to be loaded is either undergoing
debug action or test action prior to release.
The on line SW environment hence will be different
than for a manual CAMPS on line system since DEBUGGING
and TRACE faulities are needed.
The system must also be able to be created and
run without these facilities.
It must also be able to accept floppy-based updates
and incorporate these in the on-line system in
the same manner as a normal site.
b) O̲f̲f̲ ̲l̲i̲n̲e̲ ̲s̲o̲f̲t̲w̲a̲r̲e̲
It is assumed that the support SW deliverable with
the CAMPS contract and executed on the development
system will enable the creation of systems which
will execute on the reference system under debug/trace
or without debug trace in "operational" mode.
3.3 F̲A̲B̲R̲I̲C̲A̲T̲I̲O̲N̲/̲T̲E̲S̲T̲I̲N̲G̲/̲I̲N̲S̲T̲A̲L̲L̲A̲T̲I̲O̲N̲/̲T̲R̲A̲N̲S̲P̲O̲R̲T̲A̲T̲I̲O̲N̲
The reference system shall be fabricated in sequence
with the CAMPS production line so as to realize cost
savings to SHAPE and C/R.
The system shall be factory tested as if it were an
operational CAMPS site.
Post-test, the system shall be stored for a period
of time to be agreed between CR and SHAPE. This has
benefit to C/R from the point of view that installation
effort may not be available due to CAMPS efforts, and
benefit to SHAPE in that accommodation may not be ready
use the hardware shipped immediately post factory acceptance
test.
The system shall be installed in a site in Belgium.
A price for installation at SHAPE, followed by a further
move and installation elsewhere in Belgium should be
provided.
3.4 S̲Y̲S̲T̲E̲M̲/̲S̲W̲ ̲E̲N̲G̲I̲N̲E̲E̲R̲I̲N̲G̲
The operational software shall be configured to represent
the hardware configuration of the reference system.
The data required for input to data-base generation
will be provided by SHAPE.
3.5 T̲R̲A̲I̲N̲I̲N̲G̲
A quote for a two week standard Pascal/Swell/DAMOS
utilities course plus a one week CAMPS orientation
course shall be given, at a time to be specified.
NOTE: ILS is currently cuting an 8-10 week SW course during
the same period.
The course will be given at SHAPE or in C/R depending
on the availability of a test machine.
3.6 S̲P̲A̲R̲E̲S̲
Spare parts are estimated at 30% of cost of on site
spares for an operational system.
The price spares list is to be defined.
3.7 D̲O̲C̲U̲M̲E̲N̲T̲A̲T̲I̲O̲N̲
a) One copy of all WANG resident C/R CAMPS documentation
plus one reproduction master paper copy.
b) An operating manual for the reference system is
required stating how it may be used in various
test/delay modes.
c) It is assumed that all Application and System Firmware
listings and documentation is deliverable under
the CAMPS contract.

4.1 H̲A̲R̲D̲W̲A̲R̲E̲
The hardware for the CAMPS Development system is shown
in figure 3. The hardware cordsand units are to be
where possible identical to CAMPS. Non-common units
are to be identified by C/R. It consists of non dualised
equipment in tempest or non-tempest racks.
The following is an outline of the equipment required
for a non-tempest version of the reference system.
5 VDUs These could be non-tempest VDUs e.g.
Tandbergs, but due to the logistic back-up
problems Delta-Datas may be required.
C/R could quote for Tandbergs/Delta
Data. Choosing Delta Data also means
they may be added to ref. system as
required.
1 LINE Parallel interface high speed printer
of
PRINTER type used in CAMPS development.
1 TARE UNIT IBM compatible (to be completed).
1 DUAL STATION
FLOPPY Compatible with floppy station in CAMPS

the training for the reference system is for standard
utilities.
Dates for courses to be negociated, probably mid -
late 1984.
4.6 S̲P̲A̲R̲E̲S̲
Sparing will be considered for items not commoin to
CAMPS e.g. line printer and tape unit. C/R to advise
of these items.
4.7 D̲O̲C̲U̲M̲E̲N̲T̲A̲T̲I̲O̲N̲
a) All utility user manuals, system generation manual
to enable full use of this development system are

b) A Software Engineering and Maintenance manual is
however required which shows an overview of all
development tools, how they are used during development,
how changes of different kinds may be made using
the tools, how testing is carried out etc. This
is an overall document which should call up the
user guides for test tools as well as operational
procedures.
4.8 T̲E̲M̲P̲E̲S̲T̲/̲N̲O̲N̲ ̲T̲E̲M̲P̲E̲S̲T̲
A TEMPEST and a NON-TEMPEST version of the development

The hardware and software for the ISSC represent a
considerable investment for SHAPE and NATO.
The hardware and software of the three machines must
need all software design, development, test and configuration
management needs of the ISSC.
C/R is invited to suggest improvements where they see
inconsistencies or point out functions C/R feel are
not adequately catered for in the current design.

T̲R̲A̲I̲N̲I̲N̲G̲
As a result of discussions with SHAPE representatives
it was realised that the subjects of training courses
which might be provided along with the CAMPS reference
system are identical to these contained in an outline
for a CAMPS software course which is an option under
the main CAMPS contract.
Furthermore, the timescales for the courses are similar
and the dates are approximately the same.
It was therefore decided not to quote for the main
CAMPS contract option of a training package covering
all aspects of CAMPS Software including the use of
the development, reference and test-drive systems.
SHNMO will negociate with C/R on the content and cost
of the SW training course.
