About Us
SCS Engineering, Inc. is a certified Small
Disadvantaged Business (SDB).
SCS, founded in 1982, offers commercial software
products and services to aid in the development of real-time software. Our
employees have been a part of the aerospace and defense industry for the past 30
years.
SCS’ R&D services include the core areas of
Distributed Technologies which include Processing, Simulations, Mission
Rehearsal, Embedded Training, Real-Time Architectures and System Integration.
SCS’ support services include system design,
software development, software/system integration and testing, software quality
assurance and general software/system support and maintenance.
Our commercial tool suites encompass real-time
development and analysis tools, visualization tools, and communication backbone
tools. SCS’ commercial product line also includes model suites providing
theater level, vehicle level and subsystem level simulations.
SCS’ development activities have included Systems
and Mission Rehearsal Tool Suites which support distributed planning, mission
execution, observation and post-mission analysis.
SCS’ activities have also included Avionic
Simulation Software used in the development of System Integration Facilities and
Laboratories.
SCS also holds specific experience in developing
PC-based real-time visual systems and rendering engines based on OpenGL/DirectX
and Open-Source concepts. SCS has developed out-the-window scene generators
using non-proprietary graphic suites and standards as well as fully interactive
virtual battle spaces using goggles and head locators.
SCS has extensive experience in deploying
real-time systems on desktop workstations. SCS has developed toolsets
which allow legacy mainframe and mini-computer based simulation systems to be
replaced with Microsoft Windows based workstations and systems. SCS has
deployed applications, tools, and APIs on platforms based on VxWorks, UNIX and
Linux.
SCS specializes in
providing services related to real-time simulation applications and developing
real-time simulation tools and systems.

Our engineers have developed Ada, FORTRAN, C/C++, Pascal and Assembler
software applications for host computer systems as well as Ada, Jovial, C/C++
and Assembler for embedded computer systems. These host and embedded
applications include:
- Software Development Tools - Tool Sets for the development of
embedded systems, expert systems, mission applications, subsystem
integration, operating systems and distributed systems. The tools included:
- Symbolic Debuggers
- Expert System Shells
- Real Time Data Loggers
- Bus Stimulation and Analysis Environments
- Data Reduction Plot and Tabular Dump Utilities
- Interactive Graphics and Plotting Packages
- Simulation Environments
- System/Subsystem Integration Environments
- Ada Software Development Environments
- Mission Applications - Mission applications that range from
real-time multi-sensor data fusion to non-real-time system status and
diagnostic monitors. Our engineers have developed applications such as:
navigation, multi-source sensor data fusion, air-to-air weapon delivery,
air-to-ground weapon delivery, crew station interfaces, display systems,
status monitoring, built-in-test, down loadable diagnostics. Our engineers
have also developed algorithmic as well as rule based applications.
- System Control / Resource Management - Resource management
applications that assess system capability, mission requirements, mission
priorities and mission phase; these systems are then dynamically balanced
based on system assessment. Our engineers have developed these systems which
included embedded, host, real-time, non-real-time, man-in-the loop and
hybrid systems.
- Data Management - Data management systems that manage low and
high speed data bus interfaces, central and distributed data base systems,
shared memories, linear busses, ring busses, cross bar switches, bulk
memories and magnetic media. The control strategies that our engineers
developed for these systems include sequential access, direct access,
physical addressing, logical addressing and hybrid access.
- Operating Systems - Operating systems for single as well as
multi-processor systems. Many of which were developed in high order
languages to ensure maximum transportability. Our engineers have the
background required to assess timing and sizing issues to determine the
proper balance between HOL implementations versus native language
implementations. Our engineers have developed Kernels that operate on
multi-vendor Mil-Std-1750A computers, CISC and RISC based systems.
