		| Abstract: | 
		ANDES (the Advanced NOAO Database Expert System) is NOAO's new observing proposal system. Recent improvements include the phase out of legacy components, such as our previous Access-based effort called ALPS++. New work focuses on pre and post-TAC procedures such as importation, scheduling, collection of observing reports on the mountain, and automatic compilation of various statistics. The ultimate goal is to provide an environment which allows a comprehensive understanding of the collection, evaluation, scheduling, execution and post-execution of proposals and programs. |
