Relational Database Design of a Shipboard Ammunition Inventory, Requisitioning, and Reporting System

Abstract

This thesis defines the analysis and design necessary to automate the current manual procedures for the inventory, requisitioning, and reporting of shipboard ammunition. After verifying data and functional requirements of the system, this study specifies the logical database design and application design of a relational shipboard ammunition management database application. In addition, the PARADOX relational database management system software package is used to implement the relations and specify the required reports for a prototype application. The potential for integrating an expert system with this shipboard ammunition relational database is discussed and other areas for future work are suggested.
