If you dig around the DoD sites, some of this may still be out there, but the term as I typed it is incorrect. It is Contractor Integrated Technical Information Services Essentially, it covered everything from technical manuals to project schedules, etc. depending on who one talked to in those days. A key idea was how to support distant forces and system using databases. A key concept for that was concurrent engineering. The key term is CALS. The final expansion was "Continuous Acquisition and Lifecycle Support". Here are some jumping in points. The water is deep, so jumper beware. http://www-cals.itsi.disa.mil/ http://navysgml.dt.navy.mil/cals.html http://www.infoassets.com/kbi/e-x/index.html Robin Cover's OASIS page also has links to this stuff. I will be surprised is a lot of the older papers are still around. Anogher project of interest at that time which informed the work was DICE: DARPA Initiative in Concurrent Engineering.

Dayadhvam.h -----Original Message----- From: Ashvil [mailto:ashvil@i...] Anyone have a link to these papers or to get them. If some of the paper authors are on this list, could you please consider publishing them on the web. JPEGs scans are fine too ;-) These will be helpful to all folks like me who came late to the party and would atleast document history of markup and unstructured information. I hope xml.com, xmlhack.com or some site establishes a repository for this history.
