Client Projects

Airborne Systems: Provided mentoring, architectural and implementation support for the development of a scalable avionic system framework for use across multiple weapon systems using off-the-shelf real-time CORBA middleware, and real-time operating systems.  Provided tools for debugging distributed applications and performing RACE condition analysis.

Radar Systems, Defensive and Offensive: Provided a real-time CORBA framework for ship-board and ground-based detection systems.  Architecture included high-availability (HA), fault tolerance (FT), and load balancing characteristics.

Software Defined Radio Framework: This framework was designed to support multiple real-time operating systems and employed real-time CORBA, C++, and Java for management services.  It was designed to fulfill the requirements of the next generation programmable radios for the military. The core framework is reusable across multiple waveforms and includes security features for encrypted message traffic.

Wireless PDA: This application provides infantry with the capability to send and receive information to battlefield management information systems using a secure, lightweight, rugged PDA employing a specialized communication protocol.

Satellite Management Services Framework: This C++ CORBA framework was developed to enable the client to manage the multiplicity of both new and legacy ground systems, in the more demanding environment of low earth orbit maneuverable satellite constellation. The distribution of information amongst systems had to have high bandwidth and low latency. Legacy systems required subtantial performance improvements (100X to 1000X). OCI also developed new components to satisfy new functional needs.

TACAN Software: OCI embedded systems developers provided code implementation reviews, and did subsequent porting and testing of on-board navigational software to a DSP. The development host and target had significant differences requiring careful management to esnure consistent behavior across platforms.

Legacy C Software Integration: OCI developed a code generator to enable the wrapping of legacy C applications so that they could be integrated into a real-time CORBA based weapon systems.

Submarine Combat Systems: OCI provided on-site mentoring and migration support with its open source products to help a client move their combat systems from a closed, proprietary architecture to an open extensible system.
