The Scientific Information Research Program (SIRP) is a cooperative program initiated by the National Bureau of Standards and the Department of Energy to develop a prototype, computerized information network. Subsequent support has been provided by the National Aeronautical and Space Administration and the Department of Defense. A group of engineers and scientists were selected from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Los Alamos National Laboratory and Sandia National Laboratories to form an initial user group and provide guidance in the development of the system. After an intensive analysis, it was determined that the information the Group used most frequently was the physical properties of metal alloys. This data is the focus for the database system, Materials Information for Science and Technology (MIST), being developed for the network. 3 refs., 1 tab.
