Military Personnel Service Warships With the Aid of Mobile Devices
Overview Maintaining the complex equipment and systems of a warship demands regular maintenance surveys called "Checks." Often, the sailors who perform checks must shimmy through tight quarters or crawl spaces, and thus their tools and record-keeping media must be compact and rugged. Charged with replacing the old pen-and-paper system of recording maintenance activity, the Ship Systems Engineering Station of the Naval Surface Warfare Center devised a Microsoft Windows Mobile - based solution with Odyssey Software, a Microsoft Gold Certified partner. Now sailors file maintenance reports at the point of work with the aid of Pocket PCs. These mobile devices connect to Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server through a wireless local area network using 802.11 Wi-Fi specifications and Web services.
