Abstract

One of the most potent tools available to support achievement of control over an organization's information resource is the Integrated Dictionary/Directory (D/D) System. Use of a D/D System can assist in data inventory management, cost control and improving resiliency to changing requirements. A D/D System is composed of a database (describing the information resource), retrieval and analysis capabilities, interfaces (enabling other software to access the D/D) and data management tools. Some D/D Systems are independent from other software packages; some either are dependent on or are actually embedded in other data management systems. D/D Systems provide functions to assist in interfacing the D/D to other software and loading the D/D with meta-data from other software. Use of a D/D System is a first step toward achieving control of the data resource.
