Abstract
This paper discusses the implementation project undertaken in 1988--1989 as part of Texas Christian University's graduate program in Software Design and Development. The report summarizes the intent, schedule, man-loading, design methodologies, and development tools used during the course of the project. Included is a discussion of the project's failures and successes. The paper concludes with a discussion of the lessons that may be learned from such projects in planning future efforts of this kind.
