A Prototype Web-Enabled Information Management and Decision Support System for Army Aviation Logistics Management

The purpose of this thesis is to develop a prototype web-enabled database to improve the process flow of data collection and manipulation in support of Army aviation operations. Data collection is focused around routine aviation operations and aviation maintenance with the intention of identifying a feasible replacement for the existing redundant manual and automated collection procedures. The web interface has the potential to reduce the logistical burden on unit s data collection procedures and provides tailorable, near real time information about aircraft maintenance status, individual training, and unit training to decision makers at all levels as a decision support tool. This thesis will describe the design considerations for a web-enabled database to include the development of detailed data and process models.Naval Postgraduate School Monterey CA is the author of 'A Prototype Web-Enabled Information Management and Decision Support System for Army Aviation Logistics Management' with ISBN 9781423520085 and ISBN 1423520084.
