The Data Entry Aboard Ship DEAS project is investigating the use of microprocessors to provide logistics management automation for the smaller and non-automated classes of Navy surface ships. A breadboard system has been developed and tested in two ship trials. Results achieved and a projection of the concepts needed for an operational implementation of DEAS are covered in this report.
