An Approach to Interfacing Data Bases in WWMCCS ADP.

Abstract

Evolving requirements including the development of the Joint Operation Planning and Execution System (JOPES) are forcing the Worldwide Military Command and Control System (WWMCCS) ADP community toward the development of a distributed data base approach to information management. In this thesis the Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) concept is examined as a proposed system for realizing a distributed data approach. Using the EDI concept, any command which could translate to and from the EDI standard data set could exchange data with any other participating command. Implementation of this sort of system would facilitate interfaces among commands while not limiting participating commands to specific hardware, software, or data base management systems. The thesis proposes the EDI concept as a step toward realization of better data distribution and management in WWMCCS ADP. (Author)
