METHODOLOGIES FOR SYSTEM DESIGN.

Abstract

This report presents the results of work on development, programming, and testing of methodologies for aiding informaion system design and evaluation. They include, (1) a first step in formalization of a calculus of operations developed for aiding definition of processes for file organization and searching, (2) the complete programs for an evaluation and assignment model which provide for mechanized determination of the optimum assignment of components and functions to points in a hierarchial reporting structure, (3) test results on the relative effectiveness (in terms of quality of results and time and cost for the design process) of the measure of system efficiency, the system design model, and the evaluation and assignment programs.
