An Investigation of the Application of Voice Input/Output Technology in the COINS Network Control Center,
Abstract
During the 1980s we will continue to see an increased use of distributed computer networks. Although network usage has been found to be effective in a wide variety of applications, continued network expansion heightens the need for effective management to achieve optimum performance, reliability, and security of network operation. Advances in network management have not kept pace with the problems that arise in network operation. The Community On-Line Intelligence System (COINS) is a packet-switched network connecting organizations in the U.s. intelligence community. COINS exhibits many of the difficulties faced by large networks. It is ironic that networks have made advanced technology available to a large number of users, yet the use of advanced technology to assist network management has been relatively limited. This thesis will study the COINS Network Control Center (CNCC) and explore ways that Voice Input/Output (VIO) Technology can be used to improve the day-to-day management of network operations.
