SECTION -B

(Compulsory Question) 01 X 10 = 10 Marks

Case study:

The Altanta Police Department (APD) uses CATCH (computer assisted tracking of criminal histories) a DSS generator for investigating homicide, rape and aggravated assault cases. The system helps investigators to find and link common criminal patterns such as geographical and temporal patterns, by searching a database that contains records of past and criminal cases. CATCH also lightens the managerial and administrative burdens of supervisors by facilitating case assignments, tracking cases and ensuring that all the reporting requirements of the government are met.

The use of CATCH is voluntary; this fact has been cited as one of the reasons for high user involvement in the development and implementation of the system.
