We map out a straw man concept of the information flow in the computing system for the MMA. We track the information from the proposal stage through refereeing, time allocation, choosing a project from the queue, micro-scheduling the project, flexible queue observing, automated pipeline imaging of preliminary images, automated pipeline imaging of the final images, and archiving. If each of these steps can be accomplished fully electronically, we can design a highly integrated system which is capable of meeting the MMA computing demands which have been laid out by the MMA Computing Working Group (MMA Memo 164).
