    Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) Atlantic has been developing software usable for signal processing applications in order to support research and analysis objectives.  The set of software is called STAR (Software Tools for Analysis and Research), which provides a toolset for data processing, display, detailed analysis, and recording.  The STAR suite currently includes the following software:
    
    • Signal Processing Packages (SPPACS)
    • Signal Processing Library (SPLIB)
    • SONAR (sound navigation and ranging) library (SONLIB)
    • STAR-IDL (the Interactive Data Language - IDL, STAR code)
    • STAR++ (the localization libraries written in C/C++ languages)
    • Omni-Passive Display (OPD)
    • Acoustic Cetacean Detection Capability (ACDC).
    
    The current STAR software suite is written using a combination of C / C++, Standard Template Library (STL) and C++ Templates, Qt and Qwt widget toolkits, Python, and a range of  software libraries (FFTW, sqlite, eigen, libsndfile, rtaudio, and wavpak), Linux operating system (OS), CMAKE build tools, Subversion configuration management tool, IDL, and VIPER PC104 development environment.  The software is documented using the “DOXYGEN” documentation generator for C++ and C, and it runs on Linux, Windows, and Mac OS. 
    
    STAR software has a layered design to maximize reuse and ease the development of new tools into the suites.  To this end, it is strictly configuration controlled (so that changes to software and documentation are recorded) and all issues and enhancement ideas are tracked in a web-accessible database (where users and developers can input issues, priorities and solutions to provide coherent tracking and recording of an issue over its entire lifecycle).
    
    A number of groups at DRDC Atlantic have requirements to perform continuing work on several sonar analysis projects using STAR, building upon the results of previous work.
    
    Contract is to be for a 60 month period.   
    
    Delivery Date: Above-mentioned
    
    The Crown retains the right to negotiate with suppliers on any procurement.
    
    Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
