Agile is an umbrella software methodology that incorporates many of the best practices of the last couple of decades. In this paper, we will examine some of those key techniques for possible application in the aerospace domain, starting with a brief literature review to identify the key Agile publications and the germane DO-178B work. Virtually all Agile practices can be mapped to a DO-178B software development process. We provide a detailed analysis of the key practices, with a preliminary assessment of the ease of implementation for each. An analysis of a number of the difficulties involving transitioning from a traditional waterfall software development process to Agile practices will show that, though difficult, a transition is possible. The transition to Agile development does not require sudden, sweeping change, but instead can be accomplished through incorporating Agile methods into an existing process.We will document successful integration of test-driven development, pair programming, refactoring, an iterative approach, and other Agile methods into a traditional DO-178B software development process. We conclude with a call for a collaborative effort to further explore Agile as an answer to the urgent need for new approaches to complex systems that have become increasingly difficult to verify and validate.

This paper describes the implementation of an automated test system for APL functions. It extends an implementation of assertive comments in APL to derive a notation for formal specification using pre and post conditions. These conditions are APL statements and so can be built into test functions. Data supplied to provide examples is captured and subjected to mutations to test behaviour under edge conditions. The techniques make extensive use of modern APL ideas such as defined operators, phrasal forms and function assignment. APL 91 CATS-Computer AidedTestingof Software 232 APL 91

We are interested in the development of Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) diagnostic systems and other complex systems of data subjecc processing,There are some questions on the How to build these systems easily? How to build them fast?How to build them at a low price?And how to build them to be user friendly?Today, from our point of view, in the area of Nuclear Power Plant diagnostics, there is only one answer to these questions: We must use APL.
