First results in Octopus development of a distributed file system
Abstract:
The Octopus method was created by Nokia to assist development of embedded, real time software systems. Like all methodologies, its application to industrial projects presents several difficulties. One of the pilot applications of Octopus at Nokia has been the design of a real time, distributed file system (Magix) for the DX200 telephone switch product family. The first results from the analysis and high level design phases have shown a number of problems in the method, as well as highlighting several positive aspects. A perspective on the near future leads towards a tailoring of the method in order to render it adequate for all problem domains.
