Review of the Bupers AIS Program.

Abstract

The objective of this program was to assist the Bureau of Naval Personnel in their development of the Advanced Information System (AIS). The goals of the AIS plan are to introduce in the operational systems of the Bureau the following modern data processing technologies: Integrated database management, Structured programming, Development environments that improve the portability of system software, and Virtual machines and data abstraction techniques in support of architectural design. Concurrent with the introduction of these software technologies, AIS is aimed at greatly expanding the access to computer resources by the clerical staffs of the Bureau. The ultimate significance of the AIS development rests on accelerating and streamlining a number of personnel assignment (distribution), training, selection, etc. functions as well as providing better support of manpower and planning activities. GSG's activities consisted in a number of reviews. Each review considered research, architectural design, software engineering, development management and procurement issues.
