Optimization of Retrieval Techniques and File Structures for the CIRCOL (Central Information Reference and Control On-Line) System.

Abstract

The Central Information Reference and Control On-Line (CIRCOL) System is a computer-based document reference retrieval system maintained by the Foreign Technology Division (FTD) in support of Scientific/Technical intelligence production. CIRCOL System performance was analyzed by systematically studying the effects of twelve primary factors on search response time. Included in the report is a study of the use of CIRCOL by four types of users, recommendations on how to optimize file structures and system processing, and an investigation of the IBM Storage and Information Retrieval System (STAIRS) was made with respect to its suitability to the CIRCOL System.
