Purpose : The purpose of this definitions document is to clarify the requirements stated by the client Operations Manager Greg Mundy for the West Virginia International Airport. Scope : The product being developed by Ghetto-Software Inc. is called Clear Skys 1.0. The purpose of this software supoprt system is to replace an existing software system at West Virginia International Airport which has been in existance for fifteen years. The current system in place supports: safety, security, efficiency, and compliance with FAA rules of the Airport. The new system will consist of four major subsystems: Air Space Manager, Ground Operations Manager, Gate and Schedule Manager, Emergency Management. This software, at a minimum, will: handle the simultaneous takeoff and departure schedules of multiple aircrafts, administer gate and runway assignments for aircrafts, provide an interface for a variety of users to view different types of information about aircraft schedules, and facilitate landing of unscheduled aircrafts in emergencies. Overview: Part II of this document, entitled General Description, will place Clear Skys 1.0 in perspective with regard to integration of other systems. Part II will describe how the sytem will be developed and the intended installation method. It will provide a list of functions of the four major subsystems defined in this document. It will describe the intended user with regards to education level, experience, technical expertise, and user training. It will define the general constraints as put forth by the customer WVIA, which will limit the design/implementation of the system inculding: regulatory policies, hardware limitations, and interfaces to other applications. The General Description segment will also assess and evaluate risk and interdependancy with external systems/sources.
