Abstract:

The objective of Automatic Traffic Advisory and Resolution Service (ATARS) hardware timing analysis is to provide sufficient information on the execution time characteristics of ATARS to: (1) permit prospective contractors bidding on an ATARS request for proposals to realistically estimate the size of the system they are proposing, and (2) to provide the government proposal evaluators with a technical basis for evaluating proposed computer configurations. This report presents the methodology for acquiring the required data and for analyzing the data to satisfy the two objectives. It is concluded that the computer performance monitoring system, which was designed and built to measure the execution time of computer subtasks within the Discrete Address Beacon System (DABS) and to count the occurrence of events within the selected task, is a suitable instrument for collecting the required data. Multiple regression analysis was found to provide excellent execution time models and to provide information required to identify critical subtasks within ATARS.
