The current study applied cloud computing technology and smart mobile devices combined with a streaming server for parking lots to plan a city parking integration system. It is also equipped with a parking search system, parking navigation system, parking reservation service, and car retrieval service. With this system, users can quickly find…

The "Operations Manual" is the third volume of the final report of the URBANDOC Demonstration Project. All three volumes are concerned with the applicability of computerized documentation techniques to the literature of urban planning and renewal. Volume one is the "Demonstration Report" (see LI 002 880), which discusses the…

The four papers included in this document are: (1) "Preparing Management for MIS" presented at the GUIDE-32 Meeting, May, 1971; (2) "Training Management for MIS" presented on March 17, 1970, to the Central New York Chapter of the Association for Systems Management; (3) "How to Unlock the Computer's Profit Potential" presented at the 1969 Spring…

Beginning January 1, 1969, Systems Research Group (SRG) undertook a project to develop operational cost simulation models of three of the colleges of applied arts and technology in Ontario. These models, and the data needed to feed them, have been developed and are now operating. SRG describes their progress to date and identifies the remaining…

The project's second year (1967/68) was devoted to upgrading the computer operating software and programs to increase versatility and reliability. General conclusions about the program after 24 months of operation are that the project's objectives are sound and that effective utilization of computer-aided bibliographic data processing is essential…

Some of the major elements of administrative information systems design as applied to higher education are described. Differences between the application of computer technology in the commercial environment and the educational environment are discussed. The major steps in systems development from problem definition through implementation are…

A more complete definition of the features offered in present day generalized data base management systems is provided by this second technical report of the CODASYL Systems Committee. In a tutorial format, each feature description is followed by either narrative information covering ten systems or by a table for all systems. The ten systems…

Institutional research and the role of information systems are examined and three types of information provided by institutional research offices are discussed: institutional studies, management analyses, and periodic management reports. The varying characteristics of research offices are described and the role of the institutional research office…

The URBANDOC General Manual is the second volume of the final report of the URBANDOC Demonstration Project. All three volumes are concerned with the applicability of computerized documentation techniques to the literature of urban planning and renewal. The "General Manual" stands midway between the "Demonstration Report" (see…

Papers presented at the seminar include an introduction to information processing which describes some techniques for use of the computer; the analysis of information systems and its role in the development of information systems; the effect on systems performance of building design and environmental standards; the concept of traditional printing…

Information systems are becoming more than computer systems, with new equipment and techniques combining with data processing to form a new field called information technology. The emerging discipline of systems engineering is discussed along with nine systems engineering techniques. An organization chart of an information services department is…

A UNIFIED APPROACH TO THE ANALYSIS AND SYNTHESIS OF THE FUNCTIONS AND OPERATIONS IN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS IS PRESENTED. SYSTEMS ANALYSIS TECHNIQUES USED IN OTHER AREAS SUCH AS CRAFT, PERT, CERBS, AND OPERATIONS RESEARCH ARE SUGGESTED AS POTENTIALLY ADAPTABLE FOR USE IN HIGHER EDUCATION. THE MAJOR OBJECTIVE OF A SCHOOL IS TO ALLOCATE AVAILABLE…

This report provides a brief general summary of progress in a 2-year project renewing earlier work on the development of Individualized Instruction for Data Access (IIDA)--a system for teaching online searching techniques for bibliographic data bases--as well as an in-depth report on the IIDA computer system design. The Connector for Networked…

A description of computer procedures applied to an emerging university's book purchasing program is presented. The analysis includes a description of the system applied, the software employed, the precataloging routines involved, and both a preliminary cost analysis and current costs. Internal flow charting is included for both the in-library…
