Automating the Exchange of Military Personnel Data among Selected Army Organizations. Volume I.
Abstract
The mandate for this study was broad and general. In brief, AIRMICS was elected to conduct research into the feasibility of establishing data processing procedures that would support the automated exchange of common personnel data among selected Army organizations. As originally scoped out by General Crosby, the study was to conduct exploratory research into alternatives for improved data resource sharing. In particular, the objective was to eliminate undesirable off-line data interfaces and to delineate the technology required for real-time, on-line data exchange throughout the Army personnel community. In confronting this challenge, AIRMICS proposed a two-phase study effort that would first assess the nature of the interface problem and then recommend alternative technologies for dealing with it. Phase One of the project had the objective of critically reviewing the current personnel data management systems in place at MILPERCEN and at other selected Army organizations that had major interfaces with MILPERCEN. Specifically, the research team proposed examining the commonalities in the personnel data being exchanged in a framework that would show the general flow of data through the various Army systems and sub-systems used for its management.
