In doing some research into other things, I bumped into the Joint
Tactical Radio System (JTRS). This appears to be a relatively new
initiative by the DoD and from what I can gather, they seem to want to
open it up to some extent to commercial applications.
Given that its all pretty new stuff, it looks like an opportunity for
Ada to be a player in an emerging market - or at least a big DoD
project. Does anybody know anything about the programming language(s)
being used to develop versions of this radio? It looks like it is
intended to have some sort of underlying OS and an API and then "radio
apps" can be written to go on top of this and reconfigure the unit to
different uses.
Google turns up lots of stuff, but most of what I can find is not of a
"Tutorial" nature. (Lots of stuff written in government-programese that
talks about how wonderful its going to be one day.) It really does look
like an opportunity for Ada if it hasn't already been locked up in some
other language because of the possibility of writing numerous
application programs for something relatively new in the world. Does
anybody know much about this?
