It\u2019s an exciting time for Team ADEV.\u00a0 For several years it has developed and delivered the Dynamic Mission Re-planning (DMR) suite of web applications under the Agile methodology, but with DMR in sustainment the team has started work on its next web development project:\u00a0 the Consolidated Air Mobility Planning System (CAMPS).\u00a0 CAMPS is a command-and-control application for scheduling airlift and air refueling missions.\u00a0 For over twenty years the legacy version of the software has played a crucial role in ensuring Air Mobility Command (AMC) mission success.\u00a0 Now, AMC has assigned Team ADEV to completely rework and modernize CAMPS as a web application.<\/p>\n
Developing the CAMPS application will be a significant change from developing and delivering DMR.\u00a0 While DMR is geared for use in only a few command and control centers, CAMPS has a user base of thousands positioned across the globe.\u00a0 Also, while DMR is designed for quickly re-planning existing missions due to unforeseen circumstances (such as aircraft issues or shifting\/emergency needs), CAMPS schedules missions from their initial concept though assigning aircraft and aircrews to managing cargo and mission completion.\u00a0 These additional complexities are a challenge Team ADEV looks forward to meeting.<\/p>\n
There are several specific challenges Team ADEV must face to deliver CAMPS successfully.\u00a0 The first is to develop a complex, multi-faceted web application from scratch, with nothing but input from users and a blank screen, using an Agile methodology.\u00a0 Under Agile principles, detailed development specifications and requirements are not part of the process.\u00a0 As the term Agile implies, development must be flexible enough to meet shifting demands from the user community \u2013 even while in the middle of writing the software.<\/p>\n
Another significant challenge is to shift the<\/span> CAMPS development environment to the cloud.\u00a0 Team ADEV and CAMPS will be in the forefront on moving government\/defense software development into the cloud.\u00a0 As usual, being a pioneer means tackling a host of difficult problems and issues never before encountered.\u00a0 This includes completely new new architecture, tool sets, processes, and methods.<\/p>\n However, Team ADEV is up for each of these challenges.\u00a0 Team ADEV has already faced and overcome a different set of challenges with DMR – such as providing real-time graphical information by interacting with a variety of web services.\u00a0 Now it will apply its expertise and initiative to this new challenge, and\u00a0 do its best to deliver and support our nation\u2019s warfighters.<\/p>\n —<\/p>\n Nathan Reames is a Junior Technical Writer with the ADEV program.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Team ADEV shifts it web application development focus to modernize a key legacy application that will be used by thousands worldwide in support of the U.S. warfighters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1,14],"tags":[33,20,36,23,38],"class_list":["post-1654","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blog","category-news","tag-agile","tag-architecture","tag-software-development","tag-team-adev","tag-web-applications"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.suprtek.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1654","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.suprtek.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.suprtek.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.suprtek.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.suprtek.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1654"}],"version-history":[{"count":37,"href":"https:\/\/www.suprtek.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1654\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1687,"href":"https:\/\/www.suprtek.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1654\/revisions\/1687"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.suprtek.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1654"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.suprtek.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1654"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.suprtek.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1654"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
