notes needed only by the user to assist in their training or in
the performance of their duties.
A.3.3 Audit trails. Audit trails are the ability of the IETM to
know where the user has navigated within the IETM.
A.3.4 Autonomic logistics. A system that acts without human
intervention and consists of two primary components: a
Prognostics and Health Management System and a Joint Distributed
Information System. The Prognostics and Health Management
System collects information while the weapon system is in
operation using sensors and diagnostics to detect faults and
impending faults. Reasoning algorithms are used to determine
the causes of the faults. The system detects degrading
performance and thus can forecast the requirement to replace a
component prior to its predicted failure. The Joint Distributed
Information System communicates this information immediately
through the logistics infrastructure, automatically acquiring
the spare parts, tools, and manpower.
A.3.5 Bookmark. Bookmarks are the capability to mark areas of
interest to allow quick access. In today’s environment, the
terminology bookmark has been expanded to include “favorites”
and “shortcuts.”
A.3.6 Cascading menus. A cascading menu is the child of the first
menu item selected. In a both the drop-down menu format and the
pop-up menu format, the child menu appears next to the first
menu item selected. There may be several levels of cascading
menus.
A.3.7 Context filtering. Context filtering is when the
presentation system automatically displays the relevant
information applicable to the existing situation. For an
example, only a specific piping system would be displayed in a
compartment diagram or the level of instructions would be
filtered based on the users level of ability (novice vice
expert).
A.3.8 Delivery. The method of moving technical data from a
contracted vendor to the Government.
A.3.9 Dialogs. Dialogs are the pop-ups and in-line collection
mechanisms for gathering information for the IETM from the user.
A.3.10 Diagnostics. Maintenance procedures that result in the
identification of a repair; troubleshooting. May or may not be
assisted with hardware/software tools.
