User Guide for the RAND Database Handling (DBH) System

Abstract

This Note is a user guide for the RAND Database Handling (DBH) System developed to operate on the PACAF Cryptologic Support Group SAAFE database used to support a project entitled "Air Base Vulnerabilities of Potential Adversaries in the Pacific Basin," performed under the Theater Force Employment program of Project AIR FORCE, an OSD-supported federally funded research and development center. This study was initiated by the Office of the Deputy Chief of Staff, Intelligence, Headquarters PACAF. The study is an assessment of the vulnerabilities of Far East Military District air bases and their infrastructure to offensive counter air missions carried out by the Pacific Air Forces. This user guide should assist the DBH user in operating the various parts of the system. It assumes the reader has a basic knowledge of UNIX and its utilities; therefore, they are not defined in the text. This Note should be of interest to operations analysts, intelligence specialists, data handlers, and others involved in developing and assessing databases.
