Abstract
The Local Area Network Material Accountability System (LANMAS) is a network-based nuclear material accountability system that runs in a client/server mode. The LANMAS core software was developed at Los Alarnos National Laboratory and released in a production mode in March 1996. Several Department of Energy sites are working to implement the core program and modify it by adding additional functionality and customizing the user interface. These modifications to the core software are made to meet site-specific accountability needs and to adapt the system to conform to the work environment at the individual sites. The result is the successful implementation of a new computerized accounting system at each site. This paper will provide an update on current activities, performance issues, core software support issues, and the status of the various site systems and will discuss the future direction of the LANMAS project.
