Container Oriented Network Distribution Analysis (CONDA) System.
Abstract
The Container Oriented Network Distribution Analysis (CONDA) Program was developed to provide the Navy with the capability to determine the extent, types, and manner in which containers/unitized cargo should be handled and incorporated into the Navy Supply System. The CONDA program encompassed two complementary efforts. The initial effort resulted in the design and development of a data base which addresses the specific areas of inland cargo movement, port handling, and ocean freight container movement. This prototype data base operates with the SHARP Data Base Management System on a Control Data Corporation 6700 computer at the David W. Taylor Naval Ship Research and Development Center. The second major effort of the CONDA Program is a study that addresses the containerized cargo and documentation flow for seavan cargo that moves from origin to destination through a water terminal. The CONDA Program provides management with a decision making tool, supported by actual historical data, to analyze and evaluate route patterns and rate structures for both break-bulk and seavan cargo that moves throughout the Navy Supply System.
