 They are using an expert system (and database interface) to
 view the large amounts of information about 'terrorists' they
 have on file. To do this manually would be quite a task, the
 rest is classified.

 There are a few 'vague' articles published in the newspaper
 about this system (OBRIII), citations can be sent to those
 interested.
