ABSTRACT

A structural model is the architectural map for a large software system or family of systems (domain). The structural model used in a domain represents the point of convergence for trade-offs between maintainability and performance, quality and efficiency. As such, different domains will likely have different structural models. The idea of a structural model evolved out of the Ada Simulator Validation Program (ASVP), which established the efficacy of Ada for real-time training simulation. In the years since this program, a great deal of work has been done toward defining architectures and structural models in the air vehicle training system (flight simulation) domain. This is evidenced by recent initiatives such as the SEI's Structural Modeling, Mod Sim, STARS, DIS, ARPA's DSSA, etc. This paper discusses the concept of structural modeling within a software design methodology, the generic description of a structural model, and the structural model developed by Boeing Defense & Space Group, the Domain Architecture for Reuse in Training Systems (DARTS).
