This study implements a personnel database system for personnel management on a small battle ship. dBASE III is used as a Database Management Software and the System is implemented as a collection of algorithms providing intelligent decisions about these assignments. It can be supported by an IBM PCXT or an IBM PCXT compatible microcomputer. The system is designed to provide real time management decision information on crew allocations, as well as required periodic reports, based on current crewmember information. Author
