The primary objective of boeing's nato Midterm Modernisation Programme (NMT) is to produce a next-generation Airborne Warning and Control System (AWACS) that is computationally distributed, functionally scalable, and more technologically advanced than its predecessors. What makes this objective particularly challenging is that our group of 50-plus software engineers on the NMT project are generally very new to a number of the technologies being used to develop this system: distributed architecture, the 4+1 architectural model, object-oriented design, iterative development, Ada, and CORBA.
