Set up and debugged compilation and testing tools, and the Unix scripts to facilitate tasks. Set up and managed the Configuration Management with non-obtrusive methods for the collection and protection of data. Designed and implemented a system simulation to interact with developing Artificial Intelligence systems. Tied a ROSE (Real/time Object oriented System Engineering tool) generated FORTRAN model into a C++ frame work that established synchronous communications for the AI to work against. Added a debugger to the simulation that provided a peek and poke capability and timing adjustment. Set up a dual simulation schema whereby a simulation could be in use by the project while another was being developed and tested. Used a window generation tool to create a base set of windows from which was developed a GUI to access the debugger.
