Defining Roles in the Development of a Computer-Aided (Army Training and Evaluation Program) Production System (CAPS)
Abstract
Army service schools used typewriters and/or stand-alone word processors to prepare Army Training and Evaluation Program (ARTEP) documents as guides to unit collective training. The ARTEP development workload has greatly increased in recent years; this fact makes it difficult for schools to prepare/ revise documents in a timely fashion. The ARTEP development process would benefit from the careful application of computer technology. The U.S. Army Training Board (ATB), the U.S. Army Infantry School (USAIS), the U.S. Army Armor School (USAARMS), the U.S. Army Intelligence Center and School (USAICS), and Army Training Support Center-Information Management Office (ATSC-IMO), and the U.S. Army Research Institute (ARI) are involved in developing a Computer-aid ARTEP Production System (CAPS). The CAPS concept calls for the application of a commercially available Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) to ARTEP development. This report provides an updated version of the CAPS design concept, and it defines the roles of CAPS participants in the near-term development of a working CAPS within USAIS. Keywords: AMTP (ARTEP Mission Training Plan).
