EDITSPEC: System Manual. Volume IV. Data Handler.

Abstract

The EDITSPEC System is an automated system designed to produce construction specifications from Corps of Engineers Guide Specifications. The System uses one central computer and a communications network to provide remote terminal access by Corps offices, nationwide to a central data base. This report provides computer programmers with documentation for a machine-independent scientific and engineering data-handler. The report discusses design concepts, subroutine functions, application commands, error messages, program conversion, test routines, and procedures for changing the data-handler. The data-handler has been designed to minimize the resources required for its conversion and operation. (Author)
