Generalized Data Base Management Systems and Selected Air Force Applications.
Abstract
The report discusses the generalized data base management systems (GDBMS) with case studies to illustrate the concepts discussed in the tutorial section. An introduction to the functional components of a GDBMS, their interrelationship and their purpose is presented. Data and storage structures and their influence on the GDBMS and its associated operating system are discussed. There is a discussion on the GDBMS user environment and operational considerations. Included also are questions related to the rationale/requirements problem of GDBMSs. The case studies are all Air Force related GDBMSs. Systems discussed are the Headquarters USAF Military Personnel System - System 2.5, the Machine Independent Data Management System (MIDMS), the Program Assisted Concole Evaluation and Review System (PACER), the SACCS Force Management Information System, and the Strategic Air Command Generalized Information System.
