ToDream

ToDream layers shielding topology and system design information over the test data collected in Dream. ToDream is designed for EM test-and-design requirements tracking and design analysis. ToDream has also been designed to be used for EM requirements flowdown management. ToDream has been used by agencies and companies involved in HIRF, EMP, HPM, and NNEMP requirement analysis and testing. It is based on Office XP, MATLAB 6, and WINDOWS XP.

IDAWS

The Interactive Data Analysis Work Station (IDAWS) has been developed by SARA to provide a tool for storing and analyzing EMP surveillance data for a major strategic aircraft system. It includes a flexible definition and comparison to baseline measurements which track shielding effectiveness and other parameters over the life of an aircraft and the fleet. IDAWS2000 includes information-rich graphical displays to assist the analyst in detecting anomalies within minutes of a measurement.

CHADD

The Computerized Hardness Assurance Design Documentation (CHADD) is an automated information system that contains scanned and searchable nuclear hardness documentation pertinent to a modern strategic aircraft program. Supplier documentation is scanned, labeled with metadata, and stored in an Oracle 7 database. This system was developed by SARA to assist in maintaining the nuclear hardness features of aircraft and identifies potential impacts from obsolescence, parts substitutions, and system upgrades. CHADD's documents are accessible over a wide area network. SARA upgraded CHADD in CY2000 to CHADD v2 to be fully browser capable.
