Presentations at CALS Conference (Computer-Aided Acquisition and Logistic Support). Phase 1.2 Conferences. A DoD/Industry/NIST (National Institute of Standards Technology) Conference Held in Philadelphia, PA on 20 Apr 1989, Anaheim, CA on 27 Apr 1989 and Gaithersburg, MD on 2 May 1989

Abstract

The CALS Phase I.2 Conference was held in conjunction with the National Computer Graphics Association's NCGA Integrate '89 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on 20 April 1989; at the Federal Computer Conference and Defense & Government Computer Graphics Conference FCC/DGC West in Anaheim, California, on 27 April 1989; and at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) on 2 May 1989. Computer-aided Acquisition and Logistic Support (CALS) is a DOD and Industry initiative. CALS addresses the integration and use of automated digital technical information for weapon system design, manufacture, and support. CALS focusses on the generation, access, maintenance, and distribution of the technical data associated with weapon systems. This includes engineering drawings, product definition and logistic support analysis data, technical manuals, training materials, technical plans and reports, and operational feedback data. The CALS program will facilitate data exchange and access, and reduce the duplication of the data preparation effort. CALS provides both the initiative and the framework to integrate the existing islands of automation within DoD and Industry.
