A Preliminary DDS (Data Dictionary/Directory System) Design for SPLICE (Stock Point Logistics Integrated Communications Environment) Based upon the TANDEM DBMS.

Abstract

The purpose of the Stock Point Logistics Integrated Communications Environment (SPLICE) is to provide an environment to effectively and efficiently support the interactive and telecommunications requirements of all current and new projects operating within the Navy Uniform Automated Data Processing System for Stock Points (UADPS-SP). The Naval Supply Systems Command is the project sponsor for SPLICE with the UADPS-SP sites being the primary users along with other Department of Defense/Navy systems. This thesis considers a Data Dictionary/Directory System (DDS) for the SPLICE project using the TANDEM DBMS package. The thesis first gives a background on SPLICE, then describes the concept of Data Dictionary/Directory Systems. In the coming age of information resource management, DDSs will increasingly become an important management tool of the database administrator. Highlights of the DDS facilities are mentioned as are design and distribution considerations.
