DATA PROCESSING LONG-RANGE MANAGEMENT PLAN
FY82 - FY88
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Office of Data Processing (ODP) Long-Range Management Plan for FY82 through
FY88 is designed to assist both the Agency and ODP managers to formulate their
objectives regarding the acquisition and utilization of Automatic Data
Processing (ADP) resources in support of the Government's foreign intelligence
mission. The long-range plan is formulated on the basis of requirements
solicited from user components and of historical trends tracked by ODP
managers. ODP's objective is to retain flexibility for adapting to external
developments brought about by technological advances, Agency organizational
realignments, or changing intelligence requirements. In addition, all of these
factors must be integrated into a realistic budget that conforms to overall
Agency Comptroller and Office of Management and Budget (0MB) directives. ODP
has been able to keep abreast of ever-increasing demands by using improved
hardware and software to offset inadequate budget adjustments.

DATA PROCESSING LONG-RANGE MANAGEMENT PLAN
FY82 - FY88
This plan describes the strategic goals of the Office of Data Processing (ODP)
and attempts to guide ODP and other Agency managers in their plans to acquire
and use automatic data processing (ADP) resources to more effectively fulfill
their intelligence mission. There are other planning exercises by the
Information Hand ling Systems Architect (IHSA) and on survivability at both the
DDA and DCI levels, which may impact future ODP plans. No major change is
anticipated in the manner ODP performs as the provider of a central ADP
network. This plan is designed to complement other Directorate and overall
Agency plans.4 &M_` ',,

1.2 SCOPE
This plan provides supporting data for the FY84 budget cycle and projections for
the next 4 fiscal years, FY85 through FY88. Although this document is intended
for long-range guidance, strategic goals reflect current as well as future
directions and are time-independent.
Further, this plan is directed toward the size and nature of future data-
processing workloads and actions necessary to keep abreast of changes; it is
neither directed toward specific computer hardware nor to organizational
requirements. Rather, this plan provides the framework for decisions that will
keep ODP technologically current and effective as an organization, enhance the
quality of ODP services, increase customer satisfaction, and improve the
intelligence product. To accomplish these goals, ODP works closely with the
Office of Communications (OC) on telecommunication plans and with the Office of
Logistics (OL) in providing automated printing services.
Overrll policy
is derived from the 01JP's "Mission _ nd___F~nct_iQns" sta ement
41-
contained --in 15a"ted 2' May 1979. Per'; that
regulation, the Director of OPP (D/ODP) is directed to "provide a central
computer service to',sat,isfy automatic data process-ing (ADP) requests from Agency
comoarents and the Intelligence Community (IC), as assigned." ]DP's "Management
Plan" is considered a principal instrument in fulfilling ODP`s mission.

In addition to improving its overall support capabilities through hardware and
software upgrades, ODP has continued to seek innovative solutions to both old
and new areas of concern through more advantageous use of manpower as well as
through procedural improvements. ODP continues to expend increasing amounts of
resources in its effort to support other IC components. The more notable
accomplishments of the past year are summarized in the following paragraphs.

2 - STRATEGIC CONSIDERATIONS
2.1 CURRENT ADP ENVIRONMENT
Major technological advances continue to improve ODP's methods and capabilities
for providing service. Equally important, end users have increasingly become a
central factor because they are more involved in developing new systems and in

During this planning period, ODP will continue to evaluate new developments in
ADP technology. The most significant advances anticipated are increased
miniaturization of hardware components, increased central processing unit (CPU)
speeds, faster, higher density peripheral devices, improved network
architecture, increased interactive applications, improved. graphics capability,
Distributed computer power will be more directly available to users at their
work stations; nonetheless, the need for and growth of large mainframe
facilities will continue. Use of expanded storage devices, high-speed tape
drives, and direct-access storage devices (DASDs) also will expand. Further,
improved hardware and software will significantly increase the amount of online
information directly accessible to users of ODP services.
Major technological advances in communications are expected. Use of remote
terminals, located at great distances from the computer and eventually
supporting users not now being served, will substantially increase, as will the
use of direct communication between computers. Because of increased processing
speeds along with communications advances,, improved software
4P hardware costs should not substantially increase. However, while ADP
hardware costs will remain constant (resulting in an improved price-performance
ratio), the cost of acquiring and creating software will increase.

The most compelling reasons for replacing existing hardware during the next 5
years are the prospects of improved hardware and system software reliability,
expanded capacity and capability needed for increasing customer, requirements,
and limited available floor space. There also will be wcW use of
minicomputers fort scientificv, engineering, adress- applications.
Therefore, advances in technology during the next decade will permit more
effective use of space and increased computing capacity at lower costs.
In its long-range plans, ODP must assume that:

end-users becoming more involved in the ODP network; ODP will put
increasing emphasis on standardizing ADP hardware and software.
o Technological changes will continue, with the major impact being the
office-automation tools available to the user.

During the period under consideration in this long-range plan, ODP must continue
to develop operational plans with other offices in such areas as communications,
printing, and computer output microfilm (COM).
ODP must provide a common set of standard services that can be adapted to
individual problem situations together with adequate training. ODP. also must

viable mass-storage option. The most promising alternative being considered is
the optical video disk. Although this device works well for imagery storage and
retrieval, the error rate for data storage and retrieval, so far, is
unacceptable.
Voice recognition and synthesis also is a possibility for inclusion in the data-
processing network. Such a device could enhance the operation of the automated
office.
Additionally, Project SAFE, which is under ODP management, must be implemented

3 - REQUIREMENTS
The workload trend for general services has been one of constant growth for the
past several years. Requirements submitted by various Agency offices assist ODP
in its plans to expand and enhance ADP-related services. Most offices submit
annual projections of their requirements; others submit detailed long-range
plans. All of these are vital to ODP's planning efforts. On the basis of these
user contributions and through analysis of growth patterns, ODP prepares budgets
and coordinates communications and space plans for needed facilities, o"--#_titE-

3.1.1 Online VM Services
VM service, upgraded by the installation of an IBM 3033 MP (multiprocessor)
during the second quarter of FY81, continues to grow at a rate slightly higher
than projected in previous plans. As a result, a new IBM 3081 will be installed
during the second quarter of FY82 to keep pace with demands. Reference Table
3.1, "Estimated Increase in Time-Sharing Use (FY82 through FY89)." In addition,
a functionally identical copy of the VM system has been made available to the

issued. To meet paging demands on the VM system and to maintain acceptable
interactive response time, ODP will procure three solid-state device (SSD)
subsystems to complement the drums currently in use. Each of these is
equivalent to two fixed-record disk (IBM 2305) subsystems.

The backup strategy is to use the primary batch processor for
thAt._ba&--$ai,.LQd. With this procedure, the negative impact on users is marginal,
since the batch service is divided among several CPUs. As long as the batch
system is responsive, it is a relatively cost-effective method to meet the needs
of a large number of users. The annual growth rate for batch service remains as
it has for some years, at about 15 percent. FVP~xs?-?bee ,odif#ed

existing databases and the addition of new databases. In addition to the 38
databases. previously cited, there are 6 databases on the CAMS CPU and 3
databases in SCC for DO users. Growth projections depend on a number of
factors,-- including availability of terminals, adequate space, and proper user
training. An additional 11 databases are candidates for GIMS service in the
near future; 59 are undergoing tests on the GIM Development (GIMDEV) system.

3.1.4 Office Automation Service
This new service category, Office Automation Service, groups such support
elements as terminals, printers, graphics display, word processors, and related
software, which were treated separately in previous ODP plans. ODP considers
this service an extension of support offered by the central computing facility
and as part of the overall effort to maximize electronic data-processing
assistance to end-users. In so doing, ODP has sought to select a limited
product line, thus offering economies of scale and, at the same time, maximum
service to a disparate user community. The ODP product line is shown in
Attachment D, along with other relevant information. As perceived by ODP
managers, the product line should offer:
~'` h c pct- y I
o Capability to cluster terminals u-Czi;
o Inexpensive devices for, simple tasks
~J-2s L a-Etta -
o IBM 3270hcet?i-1ty-.

o High-speed communications
o Reliable color-graphics terminals
o TEMPEST-tested, medium-speed, high-quality printers.

A
which these terminals operate calls for a diff@iaavAxpwwAwe sophisticated set of
skills for fine tuning, problem determination, and problem solving. Rapid
problem detection and correction require highly skilled personnel in software,
hardware, and communications technologies. Because of these factors, providing
simplicity to the user adds to the cost; further, the variety of terminals
needed adds to the complexity of the maintenance process.
3.2 MAJOR PROJECT REQUIREMENTS
Because of size and/or security considerations, service for some users is
provided on independent CPUs. Additional requirements for independent CPUs is
more predictable and easier to control than requirements for shared systems. In
ODP's hardware-replacement plan, services via independent CPUs typically are
beneficiaries of resources no longer judged cost effective for shared services.

3.2.1 Support to the Intelligence Community IC : CAMS and 4C
Because non-Agency personnel access CAMS, current CAMS service is provided out
of SCC on a CPU isolated from the ODP network. Limited enhancements are
envisioned for the current system. Two megabytes of memory will be added in
FY82 to alleviate a paging (storage) problem and provide for a graphics
application. Most of ODP's efforts will involve the development of an enhanced
CAMS II, programmed to begin the production phase in FY84, to coincide with a
new reconnaissance-collection system. In mid-FY82, a developmental CPU for CAMS
II will be relocated to In early FY84, a
new CPU will be installed in RCC for final system testing; this CPU then will
become the CAMS production CPU. Later, another CPU will be installed for backup
and additional development. These CPUs will be IBM 3081K or equivalent systems.
The 4C System (which replaced the SP ..CLEAR batch system in August 1981), is now
operational, using tAtk- GIMS-based software developed under contract by

3.2.2 Support to the Directorate of Intelligence _(DI)
DI provides ODP with a detailed long-range plan each year, from which ODP
determines future growth and workloads. In addition to the general service
provided under VM and batch, ODP runs two dedicated CPUs for DI support--the OCR
service and TADS. The OCR service consists of a number of online applications
for bibliographic-database update and retrieval, and for cable traffic text-
search capability. The Pilot Mail Operation (PMO) is serving as a test bed and
training facility for future SAFE users. The growth rate of OCR requirements is
fairly stable and, as far as can be determined, the current level of support
will be adequate for this planning period. The upgrade objective is for a
simpler, more easily maintained system with improved reliability.

computer systems plans, include DO's requirement for (I) security-compartmented
'M and GIMS services, and (2) a single system capable of running all of its
critical online applications. This second requirement is to permit effective
operation of these applications even when the second machine has been preempted
to back up CAMS service. In response to these requirements, ODP has provided DO
with a subset of most services offered in the RCC general support network. The
MVS online applications, Special Trace and Retrieval System (STAR), National
Information-Processing System (NIPS), GIMS, and TSO are on a single CPU, while
VM is on a second CPU. Batch processing and backup capability, including that
for CAMS, is provided for by a third CPU.

3.2.4 Corporate Management Systems
ODP is. deeply involved in developing and upgrading the corporate management
systems used by the Agency in its day-to-day operations. Working closely with
the Offices of Logistics and Finance, ODP has committed major resources to new
logistics and unified payroll systems. ODP also is a major supporter of OL in
its efforts to automate the printing and reproduction processes. The automation
of medical records also is an ongoing endeavor with the Office of Medical
Services (OMS). A new Personnel Resource Information Management (PRIM) System
is being developed jointly with the Office of Personnel (OP) to make data from
the PERSIGN system more readily available to Agency line managers.

DATA PROCESSING LONG-RANGE MANAGEMENT PLAN
FY82 - FY88
Innovations in the fields of telecommunications and database systems have
provided end-users with the capability to develop their own projects--structured
to fit the needs and priorities of their own organizations. As a result, system
development by the central support facility has become more complex. Problem
determination and correction call for a higher level of expertise; computer
operators need more technical sophistication to manage the range of requirements
among dispersed equipment. Increased complexity of software for unique
applications means that systems software experts are needed for installation,
tuning, and problem determination. ODP expects to meet the challenge of this
emerging technology and to develop a new category of service for end-users who
do their own programming.

4.2 AUTOMATED OFFICE
ODP plans a variety of tools that, when implemented, will offer significant
improvements in many routine office functions. Word processing (WP) is the most
visible of the office-automation tools and, to date, the most difficult to
manage. Yet, controlling WP is one of the keys to a successful office-
automation plan. The moment information is typed, the capability should exist
for transferring it to a computer environment. ODP Applications conducts WP
studies for Agency components that include a requirements analysis, cost
justification, alternative solutions, and recommendations.
4.2.1 Goal
The automated office offers a category of services to customers that will allow
a smooth transition to automation with software and hardware that are both
friendly and adaptable to a normal office environment.
4.2.2 Plans
In support of the automated office concept, ODP plans to:
o Standardize equipment and software with compatible communications
features for Agency-wide interconnection with RCC computer systems.
o Using the VM CPU as a switch, provide an electronic mail service.

DATA PROCESSING LONG-RANGE MANAGEMENT PLAN
FY82 - FY88
ODP has the responsibility for several activities that, because of their size,
importance, security requirements, or other special needs, are managed and
budgeted separately. Usually, these projects serve a wide user audience and
cross organizational lines; they often extend outside the Agency to other IC
organizations and provide a unique product that is intended for a select group
and a specific purpose. Each of these projects has its own priorities and
goals. However, when implemented, they all are managed as ODP services within
the framework of ODP's existing ADP complex and are subject to policy guidelines
governing ADP support. In the final analysis, support of these projects is an
extension of ODP's general-support services.

5.2 Project SAFE Support
Project SAFE, under development by the Special Projects Staff (SPS), is now in
the system-development phase and site preparations have been completed. The
Wideband BUS Communications System is already installed in the Headquarters
building for the SAFE system and may eventually be used for other services. DI
and Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) funds are used for this project. The plan
calls for SAFE to be phased in over a number of years, with about
users in 25X1
the. user group for Block 1, the initial CIA system. SAFE will be required to
manage access to intelligence documents and open-source information received by
CIA in hard-copy and electrical form, and will be used for intelligence analysis
and production. Electronically transmitted documents, arriving at approximately
3500 messages per day, will be stored in various computer-controlled files
within the SAFE system.
5.2.1 Goal
ODP?s goal is to integrate the SAFE data-processing functions into ODP, the WBCS
functions into OC, and user-support functions into OCR. These goals will be
implemented in a manner that will ensure the satisfaction of SAFE requirements
and provide effective management of SAFE within those organizational components.

5.3 CAMS SUPPORT
CAMS, as currently designed, has reached its maximum capability. Major new
collection systems, which will become operational in FY84, will require an
enhanced system--CAMS II. The current system will be frozen at the end of FY82
to allow completion of CAMS II to coincide with the new collection system
(FY84).
ODP's goal is to maintain the ongoing system while developing the new, enhanced
system (CAMS II) that is to become operational in FY84.

6 - GENERAL. HARDWARE SUPPORT GOALS
6.1 BACKGROUND
As indicated in subsection 1.4, "Accomplishments," ODP has many diverse
objectives. Because of the variety of technologies and changing user
requirements, ODP must adhere to a unified plan. A complicating factor is the
continuing relocation of users within the metropolitan area and the concomitant
demands for a secure and reliable network that extends beyond Headquarters;
currently about 50 percent of the user community is in that category.
For the user, the most visible planning relates to the hardware and
communications technology as it involves the network. The new technological
requirements have placed ODP at the center of a large network of several
thousand terminal users who rely on them for everyday tasks and communications
Approved For Release 2005/08/1? RDP90-00992R000100010015-4
 April 1g8Xpproved For Release 2005/08/1%Egpc DP90-00992R000100010019{4jp FY82-FY88
with large databases. This long-range plan attempts to give direction and
control to anticipated network growth.
Information-processing requirements placed on ODP must be reviewed carefully to
ensure their compatibility with other strategic goals. Equally significant is
the realization that ODP cannot satisfy all requests and that users must be made
aware of the limitations of planned resources. This section highlights ODP
objectives and provides a blueprint for the various processes that support ODP's
overall strategic goals.
ODP management plans and budgets for hardware to be used adjacent or connected
to the central-processing facility. In other cases, ODP develops hardware
standards that have Agency-wide application which, although using ODP expertise
and documentation, may be budgeted for and procured by other components to solve
their unique processing problems. Examples of such hardware standards are the
Delta Data microprocessor system~..:1 ?'T r=rpy item-i0-
c~i.la comput N-N I and a proposed standard word processor.
ODP's main thrust regarding hardware is to provide end-users with conveniently
situated, reliable, and friendly work stations that .have the central CPU power
needed for support. Equipment must be in accordance with current security
regulations and approved by OC to meet emanation standards. Traditionally, ODP
has budgeted, selected, procured, and maintained its computer equipment. How-
ever, during the past few years, this procedure has been difficult to implement
Approved For Release 2005/08/155K2DP90-00992R000100010015-4
 LRMP FY824Y*8ved For Release 2005/08/15SECib . RDP90-00992R000100010015-4 April 1982
because of budgetary constraints, especially where terminals are concerned.
Despite these constraints, ODP should be able to meet urgent requirements if
users provide their requirements and priorities in a timely fashion. The
procedure described does not preclude having users with special requirements
submit budgeted funds to ODP for ADP procurements; this is especially true for
large requirements and those projects listed in section 5, "Project Support."
The Comptroller has instructed user offices to budget for minicomputers. If the
requested minicomputers are IBM 370-compatible, ODP will support and maintain
them to the extent possible. The requirement for minicomputers stems from such
considerations as security, critical-response-time demands, administrative
concerns, and the commercial availability of applications software implemented
on minicomputers.
ODP's goal is to provide support for a standard set of hardware and software for
the distributed-processing network.
6.2.1 Minicomputer Plans
ODP is formally supporting a standard minicomputer alternative to the ODP cen-
tral service. It is envisioned that the minicomputer alternative will support
ODP operating and database-management systems; this will permit straightforward
processing of applications on either the standard minicomputer or a central-
service mainframe. The justification for this approach is increased security
and/or improved service to the user.

6.2.2 Computer Terminal Plans
Using an annual user survey as the basis to determine terminal requests, ODP
will continue to budget for standard terminals. In addition, replacement of all
old Delta Data 5000-series terminals will proceed, subject to the availability
of funds. Whenever a terminal is no longer maintainable, it will be replaced by
a newer model. When offices are relocated, new terminals may be installed to-N\
replace old terminals--again subject to the availability of funds. Table-

6.2.3 Planned Office-Automation Initiatives
Plans for future development are focused on improving the network's reliability
and usability, as well as adding capabilities based on requested needs within
the limits of ODP resources. ODP searches for commercially available hardware,
the Delta Data terminal being an exception. Because of the network
configuration's unique features, most software is developed or modified in-
house.
ODP is approaching the requirements for office automation from the hardware,
software, and training aspects--each of which requires its specific brand of
expertise. Areas requiring the greatest effort are:
o Selection of a standard word-processor family of equipment through
competitive procurement. ODP anticipates that a contract will be awarded
during the second half of 1:Y82.
o Implementation of a word-processor capability on the standard VM display
terminal. This is a vital link for implementing an automated office and
is dependent on the capability of the Delta Data 7260 to-apLT a
