Peer reviewedListon, David M., Jr.; Schoene, Mary L. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1971
The authors advocate a systematic procedure involving the identification of: fixed parameters, variable options for each variable parameter, factors affecting a choice among available options, factors affected by a choice among available options, and the optimum sequence in which decisions should be made during the design process.

A number of critical aspects of educational information system design are discussed. The success of any information system depends largely upon several key decisions that must be made early in the preliminary design phase. The paper attempts to (1) indicate the nature and some of the major implications of these key decisions and (2) provide a…

Computer routines designed to determine if a song already exists in a song file data base are described. Written in FORTRAN IV, SONG FILE DATA MATCH compares the note sequence of songs in the data base and the one to be added to it. Information is then presented to the user which analyzes the sequence of notes and compares them to other songs.…

The development of microform-based information storage and retrieval systems is discussed, and the comparative advantages and costs of various approaches are considered. A proposed computer system--Archival Information Dissemination System (AIDS)--to support microform retrieval is outlined. Included are diagrams of sequential flows of information…
