Cargo Movement Operations System (CMOS) Functional Comparison between the Cargo Movement Operations System and the Consolidated Aerial Port Subsystems

Abstract

The purpose of this technical report is to identify functional performance requirements common to both the Consolidated Aerial Port Subsystems (CAPS) and the Cargo Movement Operations System (CMOS). The report primarily focuses on examining the functional processes of both systems. A pertinent by- product of this effort is some comparison and contrasting information about the data elements within the processes. The CMOS Division furnished the following programmatic documentation which form the basis for the conclusions presented here: 1) Remote CAPS (RCAPS) Functional Description, 14 Feb 89; 2) RCAPS Cargo Users Manual, undated; 3) RCAPS Passenger Users Manual, 1 Jul 89; 4) CMOS System Segment Specification (SSS) Increment I, undated; 5) CMOS SSS Increment II, 3 Oct 88; 6) Computer Aided Load Manifesting Users Manual/Operation Manual, AFM 28 - 346 (change 3), 1 Apr 88. This technical report is based on four assumptions. First, RCAPS provides all the functionality of CAPS. Second, all references in RCAPS to non-electronic communications are actually on-line transmissions. Third, the full requirements of CMOS are contained in the specifications. Finally, although the CMOS specifications are ambiguous regarding the accessibility of specific software applications across the network, we assumed the routines are available to all system PCs.
