The Distributed Computer Network (DCN) is designed to provide a nationwide homogeneous minicomputer network to support planning and analysis activities for the Department of Labor (DOL) regional and national offices. DCN provides a distributed environment which provides shared access to DOL data bases and sophisticated data retrieval, analysis, and display capabilities. The national office and each regional office will be provided with the capability to manage its own data bases, make appropriate data bases available to all offices on the network, and access data bases on the network. Activities concerning the following are summarized for DCN: hardware systems; mass-storage systems; software acquisition; LBL-supplied software; data base management systems; networking and communications; and training and technical support. The section on SEEDIS includes: transfer of SEEDIS to the DCN; future directions for SEEDIS; and archiving the SEEDIS data bases. The Labor Market Projections Model and the ESARS Data Project are also summarized briefly.
