Abstract: <p> It is proposed to design, develop and implement a data base system to support the requirement of the Technical Computing Services department of McMaster University with respect to their responsibilities for the control and servicing of units of computing equipment at McMaster University.</p> <p> This data base contains information concerning each unit of equipment, its manufacturer, custodian, model number, serial number, purchase or lease record, maintenance record, past and present locations and service record.</p> <p> This project determines various cross-sections of this information to be retrieved. This includes the development of software to create, maintain, update the data base and to produce necessary reports. The design is implemented by CDC's DMS-170 with COBOL 5 as the host language.</p>
