Reports and Technical Reports
Iterative Software Testing
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1992-06); NPSCS-92-008
Software is often developed via a series of modifications and releases. This sort of development implies that testing
often takes place in an increasingly familiar structure, rather than a unique or unfamiliar structure. ...
America's New National Security Strategy
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1991-03-11); NPS-NS-91-005
Precis of President Bush's new national security strategy first unveiled in Aspen, Colorado on August 2, 1990, involving a mix
of active, reserve, and reconstitutable forces, and General Colin Powell's "base" force. ...
Observations of Field Enhancement on the HMS Lancaster
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1994); NPS-PH-94-001
Field enhancement was observed aboard the HMS Lancaster, during EMP ship trials using Empress II. Measured fields exceeded nominal free fields by several hundred percent.
This report describes measurements, present ...
Transformations in Specification-Based Software Evolution
(Naval Postgraduate School, 1990-08); NPS 52-90-034
This paper presents a classification schema for the concepts and applications of software transformation in software evolution. Correctness preserving program transformations have been widely used for program development ...
A Graph Model of Software Maintenance
(Naval Postgraduate School, 1990); NPS 52-90-014
Effective management of the maintenance process is the most important factor in efficient software maintenance. It requires possession of the updated information about the current state' of the maintenance·and process ...
Rapid Prototyping for Software Evolution
(Naval Postgraduate School, 1990); NPS 52-90-009
This paper describes the basic concepts of a mixed-level software process and rapid prototyping. Some practical methods, and software tools for using rapid prototyping to support software evolution are also presented. The ...
Nonlinear Modeling of Time Series using Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS)
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1990-04); NPS55-90-10
MARS is a new methodology, due to Friedman, for nonlinear regression modeling. MARS can be conceptualized as a generalization of recursive partitioning that uses spline fitting in lieu of other simple functions. Given a ...
Modeling and Simulation of Random Shapes by Sculptured Wraparound: Preliminary Report
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1990-08); NPS55-90-17
Physical objects with boundaries that are irregular-random shapes---occur in profusion in the natural world. Simple mathematical models for random shapes are described. The models are generated by "adding" a random process ...
Denotational Semantics of a Real-Time Prototyping Language
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1990-07); NPS 52-90-033
The denotational semantics of the Prototype System Description Language PSDL is formally described in terms of an algebra-based Petri net model in this paper. PSDL supports specification and design of software prototypes ...
Case Studies in Strategic Planning
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1990-03); NPS-56-90-005
Contains developed case studies in strategic planning on The Navy General Board, Joint Service War Planning 1919 to 1941, Navy Strategic Planning, NASA, The 1987 and 1988 National Security Strategies, Discriminate Deterrence, ...
