RAI Information Brief Prospective from the RAI Working Group
What does DOD need for RAI • A standard(s) that can fulfill the definition. • Practical enough for today • Flexible enough to represent more robust implementations that further maximize platform independence in the future.
DOD Goal for RAI • Allow for maximized independence of the test program software. • Allow for advanced test instrument interchangeability. • Provide a reduced total cost of ownership and improved ATE capability & flexibility. • Enhance support for synthetic instruments.
DOD Desired RAI Requirements • Support for a Test Requirement abstraction where: • A test requirement is a concert of time related signals and locations. • Support for the existing procedural representation. • Support for a non-procedural (data only) representation.
DOD Intent • Recommend a standard or standards for RAI to be used in DOD acquisition policy. • Support a wide array of architectures. • Provide a path to future capability and robustness. • Incorporation into future DOD ATE.
Bottom Line • We think IEEE-1641 can be enhanced to accomplish these objectives. • We want to work with the committee to induct our requirements. • Once accomplished we want to use IEEE-1641 as the Signal based Requirement abstraction candidate for DOD interface mandate.
