Hi,

I am working on a project which, alas is using DOD-STD-1679A.  The project
is being done in ADA but the question is comming up, what is the
interpretation of the phrase "machine instruction words".  Paragraph
5.10.3 of the standard uses this phrase to define the number of allowable
problems in the software at acceptance.  Has anyone out there worked on an
ADA project which has addressed this problem? Or know someone I can get in
contact with who does know? 


Thanks
Mark
