ENVIRONMENT (COE) 3.2 HAS NET MANAGERS
Topic: DII, COE
When DISA released Version 3.2 of the DII COE recently, it also laid out
a road map for future releases.
The COE specifies that interchangeable software components be used for
building interoperable, mission-specific applications. The latest
release draws in Hewlett-Packard Co.'s NetMatrix and OpenView network
management products for HP-UX and SunSoft Solaris platforms, as well as
Netscape SuiteSpot and an upgrade from Microsoft Office 4.1 to Office 97.
Version 3.3 is schedule for an April release.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF ADA VALIDATION PROCEDURES 5.0 AVAILABILITY
Topic: Ada
The Ada Joint Program Office (AJPO), along with the Ada Validation Office
(AVO) announce the release of the new Ada Compiler Validation Procedures
(ACVPs), Version 5.0, 18 November 1997. It is available at:
http://sw-eng.falls-church.va.us/AdaIC/compilers/val-proc/val5_0fin.shtml
The ACVPs define the certification body for the Ada programming language
and set forth its rules of procedure for testing implementations of the
Ada language for conformity to the language standard. This testing
process is known as validation.
Version 5.0 of the Procedures is a revision to Version 4.2 to reflect two
important changes in Ada Validation: the end of the period of transition
in validation from the use of the original language standard to the
revised standard; and the transferral of validation authority for the Ada
language from the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST)
to the United States Department of Defense (DoD).
