Murray A. Geisler

Expert InsightsPublished 1956

A discussion of some principles and concepts of a revised logistics data-processing system proposed for the Air Force that have been developed at RAND. These ideas provide a general framework in which a data-processing system capable of meeting the operational needs of the 1960's might be developed. Although particularly applicable to the Air Force, this study may be relevant to the other military services and industry in general.
