An Integrated Pre-Flight Message Generator is a software
used in a flight scenario. It maintains a systems database and creates a message file for
the Operations Flight Program (OFP). IPFMG has a powerful database, memory and disk
management features, with a friendly human-interface.
Nearly 30,000 lines of code was converted from DOS to Windows 3.1. The conversion was done
to overcome memory limitations in DOS. Additionally, the GUI provided by Windows gives the
user a more consistent and easy-to-use user interface. The total effort involved in the
project is 70 man-months. |
