Graphical Trace Object (GTO) Tool Navy SBIR FY2008.1 Sol No.: Navy SBIR FY2008.1 Topic No.: N08-003 Topic Title: Graphical Trace Object (GTO) Tool Proposal No.: N081-003-0100 Firm: Applied Visions, Inc. 6 Bayview Avenue Northport, New York 11768-1502 Contact: Ken Doris Phone: (631) 754-4920 Web Site: www.avi.com Abstract: Applied Visions, Inc.(AVI) proposes to develop and build an interactive tracer for virtual objects (iTVO) - a tool that will provide analysts with a way to visually inspect and analyze the operation of software applications. iTVO is a software exploration environment that affords the user the ability to explore both the dynamic and static aspects of its design and functional operation using a powerful combination of 2D and 3D displays combined with an intuitive user interface. By employing the latest technology in virtual machines (VM's), iTVO will provide analysts with the ability to capture software execution data, observe and analyze it in real-time, with the ability to freeze, backup, and restart operations without alteration of the actual application under study. Combining AVI's extensive background in data capture, analysis and visualization, our Phase I effort will be devoted to defining the key requirements of the system, yyyy, and implementing key elements of the system for proof of concept demonstration and feasibility evaluation. Benefits: The development of this product could lead to more efficient testing and debugging of software applications as well as reduced cost in maintaining and extending the software throughout its life cycle Return
