Software Engineering, CASE Tools, Protocol Test System.
New features are difficult to add, without affecting existing features.
Hence it is imperative to generalise the functionality for new applications. To implement the new modules it is necessary to establish a modern and expandable development environment, that can be used for future enhancements and also as a base for the software development cycle within the company as whole. This will be achieved by maximum use of 4th generation code generators, CASE tools and platform independent libraries. Software source and version control will be implemented within this environment and linked to the development tool chain. The objective of this experiment is to extend the existing Protocol Test System for Host Tasks, with the implementation of a specific module.
