RDL

Abstract

The Requirements and Development Language (RDL) ;,~ a non-procedural language which permits the user to describe all aspects of software development, from requirements specification through maintenance.nuL statements are used, incrcmentally, to build an integrated data base containing all data pertinent to the project. From this data base, standard reports can be generated to analyze requirements or design specification, to track problem areas, to produce documentation, to furnish up-to-date status information, and to ensure communication and coordination among all phases of the development process. RDL was developed, and is being used, as an internal tool for Sperry Univac Software Development.
