Continued development of a biomedical data base on the medical aspects of chemical defense. Final report
This report documents a 5-year period of activities encompassing the further development and maintenance of the automated information system known as the Chemical Agent Retrieval System (CARS) for the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense (USAMRICD). During the period 18 November 1985 through 18 November 1990, Associate Consultants, Inc. (ACI), creator of the prototype system, expanded the database with relevant research articles taken from USAMRICD research reports and Chemical Research, Development and Engineering Command (CRDEC) holdings, medical and scientific libraries within the Washington area, and on-line searches of machine-readable databases containing citations from the world-wide literature. ACI also developed computer system enhancements. Finally, ACI scientific and lexicographic staff designed, developed and finalized a print-on-paper CARS Thesaurus.
