Analysis of Information Requirements and Design of the Consolidated AFIT Database and Information System (CADIS) with an AFIT/CI Implementation Design.
Abstract
A Consolidated AFIT Database and Information System (CADIS), a centralized relational database in third normal form, was designed for use by the faculty and staff of the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT). Information requirements were gathered by means of an in-depth data/information analysis at the directorate and division level, and used as the basis of the design. Provided with the design is a highly detailed data dictionary, in four parts, and an estimation of the approximate size of the database itself. Additionally, a system of applications programs were designed for the AFIT Directorate of Civilian Institution Programs (AFIT/CI). This system will allow efficient and easy access to the data on the database by untrained or non-programmer type users. These programs were specifically designed to provide an extremely friendly user interface between CADIS and the AFIT/CI personnel. They have been conceptually and logically documented according to the standards of software engineering.
