SUBSTANTIATION OF INFORMATION COMPONENTS OF THE REGULATORY REFERENCE DATABASE OF THE AUTOMATED INFORMATION SYSTEM OF ARMAMENT AND MLITARY EQUIPMENT TEST SUPPORT

Abstract

The creation of an information system to support the testing of armament and military (special) equipment is aimed at improving the efficiency of the test organization. This is possible due to the operational information support of all test processes, establishing information communication between departments of the organization, improving the quality of test estimations, reducing time for manual work and, accordingly, increasing the capacity of the test organization, automation of organizational management processes.
 The authors cover the approaches to the design and practical implementation of the information system for supporting the testing of armament and military (special) equipment. The issue of detailed description of the information content of the regulatory-reference database of the information system is considered. Based on the analysis of the processes that take place at different stages of testing specimens of armament and military equipment, the needs for thematic information are determined. The authors propose structural and functional schemes of information interaction of the components of the regulatory-reference database and the main software modules, which are offered for use in the information system to support tests. As a result of aggregation of the developed structural and functional schemes the generalized information structure of regulatory-reference database is offered. Possible ways to fill the database are determined.
 Based on the defined components of the database it is possible to perform further information-logical designing of the information system to support the testing, development of the components structure of the regulatory- reference database and their normalization. It is expected that the proposed information content of the regulatory- reference database will help increase the efficiency of the planning and testing of specimens of armament and military equipment, improve the quality of test results and reduce time expenditures.
