The Navy Supply Systems Command has developed the Stock
Point Integrated Logistics Communications Environment
(SPLICE) concept. It will be a foreground and background
distributed system built around local area networks. This
research describes an evaluation strategy to identify off-the-
shelf local area network architectures to support
SPLICE. Tee strategy develops a performance classification
system for local area network architectures and identifies
evaluation guidelines based on the functional needs of the
SPLICE system. Then the evaluation process is implemented to
identify example local area network products with architectures
that meet SPLICE needs. An example local area network
architecture is identified as an architecture that can
support computer networking needs in the SPLICE background
environment of mainframe computers. A second example local
area network architecture is identified with the performance
capabilities necessary to support a foreground environment
of supply customer work stations.
