Interactive Computer Graphics: A Responsive Planning and Control Tool for DoD Program Management

Abstract

This report summarizes the methodology, conduct and findings of the Defense Systems Management College (DSMC) research study of Interactive Computer Graphics (ICG) as a tool for program management planning and control. The study was conducted in four phases to meet four objectives: to determine the feasibility of representing and interrogating a program/project network on a graphics console; to determine the feasibility of developing an Interactive Computer Graphics Networking System (ICGNS) software prototype for program management planning and control; to examine the affordability of implementing an ICGNS in the PMO; and to assess the state-of-the-art in industry and DOD regarding existing and/or proposed ICG managerial applications.
