121505 -
121506 - To create the Communication Metrics Web site, and to support HTML in
121507 - general, for example to prepare sample HTML SDS documents like the
121508 - USACE Communication Metrics report, we need a set of SDS tools similar
121509 - to those for printer support.
121510 -
121511 - This requires some HTML editing functions to facilitate converting
121512 - SDS ASCII records and documents into HTML files.
121513 -
121514 - There are three (3) basic issues:
121515 -
121516 - 1. Conversion of SDS records, which has been developed
121517 - previously and explained on 971206, ref SDS 3 6000
121518 -
121519 - 2. Convert/create HTML documents for submission via Internet
121520 - that can be viewed with a Web browser. ref SDS 5 3926 and
121521 - ref SDS 5 1365.
121522 -
121523 - 3. Communication Metrics Web site that has the SDS data base
121524 - and selected documents that demonstrate the concepts of
121525 - knowledge space and application.
