| Description/Abstract | The Military Traffic Management Command Directorate of International Traffic (MTIT) tasked the Oak Ridge National Laboratory to analyze the requirements for an Integrated Booking System (IBS), to design and build a prototype of the system, and to provide documentation that would be used in building the target system. This Functional Description (FD) follows the guidelines of DOD-STD-7935-A, Military Standard: DOD Automated Information Systems (AIS) Documentation Standards. It describes the current methodologies for accomplishing the booking mission and defines the functional requirements for IBS. The report also discusses general architectural requirements and issues such as security, data exchanges, and system impacts. The ultimate goal of IBS is to provide international cargo booking for both unit and nonunit movements during peacetime and wartime. This FD provides booking requirements for the continental United States only. The results of the analysis of requirements are that IBS is a feasible system for accomplishing MTIT's cargo management goals. IBS will replace aging systems and integrate automated and manual procedures. It will provide a single automated system during wartime for viewing both unit and nonunit international cargo requests. Good human-computer interface design will be incorporated into the system during its development. Because of IBS querying capabilities, visibility of the booking process by MTIT will be enhanced. 2 figs., 2 tabs. |
