A Fast, Background-Independent Retrieval Strategy for Color Image Databases

Abstract
The Veteran's Administration mandated the implementation of the Generic Inventory Package (GIP) to assist medical center directors in the fiscal management of their purchasing programs. The Generic Inventory Package was to be implemented in March 2003 by all purchasing activities involving their primary and secondary supply accounts. The Salt Lake City VA Medical Center failed to effectively implement GIP in their engineering department as assessed in July 2005 by the Veteran's Affairs Office of Inspector General. Three policy options for the implementation were developed based on resources available. On December 15, 2007 the Salt Lake City VA implemented a new primary account, staffed by the material management section and was effective at timely implementation to the desires of the Director of the Network for the Veteran's Administration.
