Diagrammatic-graphical programming languages and DoD-STD-2167A

Many times it is assumed that diagrammatic programming environments such as National Instruments' LabVIEW and Hewlett-Packard's VEE-Test cannot be used for DoD software because of requirements to conform to DoD-STD-2167A. Frontier Engineering has developed government-acceptable TPS's in graphical programming environments to DoD-STD-2167A, by defining the following: a coding standard to address presentation and use of language features; a complexity metric to gauge the relative size and complexity of CSUs; an SDD format that addresses relevant requirements from DI-MCCR-80012A; configuration-management methods.<
