The DoD Gateway Information System: Bibliography, Directory of Resources, Prototype Experience, [and] User Interface Design.
Cotter, Gladys A.; And Others
The Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC), an organization charged with providing information services to the Department of Defense (DoD) scientific and technical community, actively seeks ways to promote access to and utilization of scientific and technical information (STI) databases, online services, and networks relevant to the conduct and management of research and engineering (R&E) programs. One of the most important efforts in this area is the development of a DoD Gateway Information System (DGIS), which will provide online, streamlined methods for identifying, accessing, searching, post-processing, and analyzing data from heterogeneous databases of interest to the DoD R&E community, and allow queries of the database using a common command language. This series of reports provides the following information: (1) the characteristics required in the DGIS and the development approach for designing a prototype system; (2) a bibliography of publications resulting from the DGIS program of the DTIC and the Technology Information System (TIS) system prototype; (3) a description of the data collection, database design, implementation, menu-driven interface, and future directions of the DGIS Directory of Resources; (4) a description of DGIS developments and evaluations to date; and (5) a discussion of the development of the DGIS menu system.
