Software Architecture
Provide a high level description of how the software works and its architecture. Identify any external connections that are required for the software to operate.
|
Prep Plus can run in file-server or client-server mode, and stores tracking information in a database. In client-server mode, Prep Plus needs a database server to host the tracking database. This database can be hosted on the same server that hosts the CRS Plus database. If Prep Plus is running in file-server mode, the Microsoft Access tracking database can be put on a shared network drive. The server used for the CRS Plus database also can be used for the Prep Plus database. Some local temporary Microsoft Access databases can be located either on the client computers or on a shared network drive. Space also is required on the shared drive to store text data files.. See website: http://www.cdc.gov/cancer/npcr/tools/registryplus/index.htm and http://www.cdc.gov/cancer/npcr/pdf/registryplus/registry_plus_requirements.pdf for more details.
