This cov? ,ct is concerned with Phase 1 (Analysis) only of a four phase
program leading to the implementation of an integrated information processing
system for NPIC. During Phase 1, the present NPIC substantive data base
will be analyzed, the specific NPIC objectives which the data base is aimed
at supporting will be determined, and information systems in operation or
development at other facilities will be studied and evaluated as to their
relative merits and pertinence to NPIC problems. The culmination (Continued)
