Plant and equipment division laboratory services series: a ten-year building-maintenance cost history

Description: Maintaining a multifacility national laboratory in a safe, reliable condition is a complex management responsibility in terms of budgets, costs, and proper utilization of personnel and material resources. Increasing wage rates and material costs, combined with decreased budgets and aging facilities, create unusual challenges to maintenance managers. A ten-year history of building-maintenance costs, a brief description of the maintenance program, analyses of personnel requirements, cost increase… more

Scenario group summary

Description: A scenario is given for ISABELLE which provides a plausible sequence of events from FY 1980 to 1990. No doubt reality will be quite different. The scenario is based on the construction schedule of the 1976 proposal. Assembly and testing of the accelerator will occur until the end of FY 1983, and the next six years will provide pp interactions for the initial high energy physics research. By 1990 any temporary conditions associated with start-up of ISABELLE should be a thing of the past and all … more

Systems study for initial development of a laboratory records information system

Description: The major impetus for a system study of the ORNL Laboratory Records Department (LRD) was the ORNL-3300, a computer listing of all ORNL reports, papers, and oral presentations. Although this file has been maintained by the Information Division Libraries Department (LD) for several years, the usability of the file is somewhat limited, and duplicative steps appear to be involved in generation of the file. In order to examine procedures involved in generating the ORNL-3300, along with other Library… more

Design and implementation of a local computer network

Description: An intralaboratory computer communications network was designed and is being implemented at Argonne National Laboratory. Parameters which were considered to be important in the network design are discussed; and the network, including its hardware and software components, is described. A discussion of the relationship between computer networks and distributed processing systems is also presented. The problems which the network is designed to solve and the consequent network structure represent c… more

Status report to the ERDA Nuclear Data Committee. [Work at ORNL since May 1976]

Description: This report was prepared for the ERDA Nuclear Data Committee and covers work performed at ORNL since May 1976 in areas of nuclear data of relevance to the U.S. applied nuclear energy program. The report was mostly generated through a review of abstracts of work completed to the point of being subjected to some form of publication in the open literature, formal ORNL reports, ORNL technical memoranda, progress reports, or being presented at technical conferences. As much as possible this report c… more

Short guide to SDI profiling at ORNL

Description: ORNL has machine-searchable data bases that correspond to printed indexes and abstracts. This guide describes the peculiarities of those several data bases and the conventions of the ORNL search system so that users can write their own queries or search profiles and can interpret the part of the output that is encoded.

Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory building cost index

Description: The Controller's budget request for FY-1979 established guidance for escalation rates at 6 to 8 percent for construction projects beyond FY-1976. The Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory (LASL) has chosen to use an annual construction escalation rate of 10 percent. Results of this study should contribute toward the establishment of realistic construction cost estimate totals and estimates of annual construction funding requirements. Many methods were used to arrive at the LASL escalation rate recom… more

Computer technology forecasting at the National Laboratories

Description: The DOE Office of ADP Management organized a group of scientists and computer professionals, mostly from their own national laboratories, to prepare an annually updated technology forecast to accompany the Department's five-year ADP Plan. The activities of the task force were originally reported in an informal presentation made at the ACM Conference in 1978. This presentation represents an update of that report. It also deals with the process of applying the results obtained at a particula… more

General-purpose computer networks and resource sharing in ERDA. Volume 3. Remote resource-sharing experience and findings

Description: The investigation focused on heterogeneous networks in which a variety of dissimilar computers and operating systems were interconnected nationwide. Homogeneous networks, such as MFE net and SACNET, were not considered since they could not be used for general purpose resource sharing. Issues of privacy and security are of concern in any network activity. However, consideration of privacy and security of sensitive data arise to a much lesser degree in unclassified scientific research than in are… more

Data telecommunications at the CSCF

Description: At Brookhaven National Laboratory data telecommunication for remote job entry, interactive time sharing, networking, graphics, and special purpose links became increasingly important--they now rival the more traditional over-the-counter traffic. The BNL Central Scientific Computing Facility (CSCF) responded to this need with a number of developments. The latest and most comprehensive of these is a ''front-end'' communications system built around MODCOMP II computers. To put this project into it… more
