Depot Maintenance Planning and Programming System (DMPPS). Volume 3. Alterations Subsystem.

Abstract

The Depot Maintenance Planning and Programming System (DMPPS) is a large computer system developed over a period of two and a half years by the David W. Taylor Naval Ship Research and Development Center (DTNSRDC), Code 186 for the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), Code 070T. The System was developed to project shipyard resource requirements (i.e., labor mandays and costs as well as material costs) by shipyard production shop and by ship work breakdown structure (SWBS). It enables management to assess the impact on the shipyards and ship systems of changes in depot-level maintenance/alterations policy, major changes in force levels and/or composition and budgetary constraints. DMPPS consists of a network of interdependent computer programs written in FORTRAN IV. It was developed at DTNSRDC using the CDC 6000 series computers and was subsequently converted for the IBM 360/370 series computers. It is now installed and operational at the NAVSEA 070 computer terminal (which accesses an IBM 370/168 computer). This document presents the IBM 360/370 version of the DMPPS program modules. The modules have been grouped into six subsystems. Each of Volumes 2-7 of this document describes, in detail, one of these subsystems. An executive summary of the entire DMPPS is presented in Volume 1.
