Computerized Photographic Information Filing and Retrieval System (PIFS)

摘要

A system for filing and retrieving visual aids using a computerized program is described. The Photographic Information Filing System (PIFS) identifies each visual aid by using seventeen types of information. The data recorded in each of the seventeen information fields are described, and the codes used in some of the information fields are defined. A sample search of the PIFS file and the photographic records retrieved are included as an example of PIFS retrieval and search capabilities. Guidelines for implementing PIFS at ORNL are discussed. 5 tables. (ERA citation 02:061852)
