ITEM 1.     BUSINESS

Principal Services Rendered
- ---------------------------

            Computer Data Systems, Inc. (the "Corporation"), was incorporated in
the State of Maryland in 1968.  The Corporation provides information technology
services and products including system integration, software engineering/re-
engineering, development and maintenance, data base support, data center
management and processing services, and telecommunications engineering.  The
Corporation's products include CASE tools as well as financial and accounting,
debt management, loan and mortgage processing, and biometric identification
systems.  The Corporation's 3,200 employees serve a wide array of government and
private industry customers with information technology expertise, systems, and
products.  The Corporation provides information technology solutions on more
than 100 current contracts from 23 office locations.

            The Corporation's operations are concentrated in two business
segments.  In 1996, the Corporation reorganized these business segments into
two unincorporated operating companies, CDSI Information Technology Solutions
Company (CDSI ITS) and CDSI Business Applications Solutions Company (CDSI BAS).
Information with respect to such business segments may be found in Note 9 to
the Corporation's Consolidated Financial Statements.

            Of these business segments, the larger CDSI ITS (formerly
Professional Services Group) primarily markets its expertise in software
programming and network engineering to those federal government agencies that
demand highly technical information technology solutions.  CDSI ITS applies
proven information technology to design, implement, and operate data center
facilities, networks, imaging systems, interactive databases, automated
biometric identification tools, and information management and reporting
systems.

            CDSI BAS (formerly Data Processing Support Services Group) provides
financial systems and services to include debt collection, pension trust fund
support, loan processing, cash management, mortgage servicing, and fulfillment
systems and services.  In addition, CDSI BAS markets the Corporation's
proprietary software packages and CASE re-engineering tools.  The suite of
CASE tools enhances the development and maintenance of COBOL programs
and increases operational reliability and maintainability.  CDSI BAS also
operates a modern data center, which services the information processing
requirements, both mainframe and client-server, of numerous federal and
commercial clients.  Data center services include the full range of associated
technical support: LAN administration, system and data security, data integrity,
user training, office automation support, hotline support, and courier services.

            Recent awards include new contracts with the Lockheed Martin
Corporation, the Department of Transportation and the Federal Communications
Commission and subcontract work for Systems Research and Applications
Corporation.  The Corporation also received two contracts for its i.e.FARS
system with the Department of Education and the Export Import Bank of the United
States.  In addition, the Corporation was awarded a contract to continue to
provide facilities management support with the General Services Administration
Information Technology Service.  The contract, covering over 900 current
employees, is for one year with four one year options and has a total estimated
value of $200 million through September 2001.
<PAGE>
            In March 1995, the Corporation's Argentine subsidiary along with the
prime contractor NetStar S.A., was awarded a contract with the Banco Social de
Cordoba to automate the state-owned Quiniela lottery.  However, after
successfully completing acceptance testing on the prototype and investing $11
million in hardware and software development in the contract, a decree was
issued by the outgoing Governor of Cordoba on his last day in office effectively
cancelling all work on the contract and reopening the bidding process from the
initial receipt of proposals.  In July 1996, the contract was reinstated.  The
Corporation is currently beginning the implementation schedule.

            Most contracts are awarded on the basis of competitive bidding, and
are generally structured as time-and-materials, cost-plus-fixed-fee, fixed-
price, or unit-price contracts.  Such contracts include specific objectives and
performance periods ranging upwards of several years.

            Under time-and-materials contracts, the Corporation receives a fixed
hourly rate intended to cover salary costs attributable to work performed under
the contract, including related expenses and a specified profit margin.  Under
cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts, the Corporation is reimbursed for allowable costs
and is paid a negotiated fee.  Under fixed-priced and unit-priced contracts, the
Corporation bears the risk of increased or unexpected costs and benefits if its
costs are lower than estimated.  Key factors in the award of such contracts have
been technical expertise, past performance, and pricing.

Market and Competition
- ----------------------

            A substantial number of companies offer information technology
services and products that overlap and are competitive with those offered by the
Corporation.  These include: (1) companies that offer one or more information
technology services as a main line of their business; (2) computer manufacturers
who offer the same information technology services as adjunct technical support
for their equipment or as separate functions; and (3) companies primarily
engaged in other businesses that also outsource their information technology
facilities, services and expertise.

            The Corporation has many competitors in each of the areas in which
it does business.  Some of its competitors are large, diversified firms having
substantially greater financial resources and larger technical staffs than the
Corporation.  The primary competitive factors in the market are technical
qualifications, management performance, and price.  Greater emphasis on value
rather than simply price considerations has been noted in recent contract
awards.

            While the federal market for the Corporation's services is projected
to grow 5-8% annually, increasing federal regulation, continuing competition for
qualified technical personnel, and narrow profit margins are characteristic of
this highly competitive industry.  In recent years, the trend toward
consolidation of existing contracts and an emphasis on fixed-price contracts has
grown.  Economic uncertainty and federal budget pressures continued to affect
the marketplace in 1996.
<PAGE>

Dependence on Government Contracts
- ----------------------------------

            The Corporation's business with the federal government is subject to
various risks, including the reduction or modification of contracts due to
changing government needs and requirements.  The Corporation's contracts are not
subject to renegotiation of profits.  In the event of termination for
convenience, the Corporation would be reimbursed for the costs of terminating
the contract.

            In fiscal year 1996, CDSI ITS sales to the General Services
Administration were $93,249,900 (37%) and CDSI BAS sales to the Department of
Education were $67,376,900 (27%).  In fiscal year 1995, CDSI ITS sales to the
General Services Administration and the Department of Energy were $89,117,600
(40%) and $46,160,400 (21%) respectively. CDSI BAS revenues from the Department
of Education were $25,642,500 (12%) in fiscal year 1995.  In fiscal year 1994,
CDSI ITS  sales to the General Services Administration and Department of Energy
were $82,837,900 (40%) and $48,491,600 (24%), respectively.

Backlog
- -------

            As of June 30, 1996, the Corporation had a funded backlog of
approximately $161,073,400 compared to $179,998,200 as of June 30, 1995. 
The Corporation expects that virtually all of the backlog will be fulfilled
during the current fiscal year.  Most contracts are subject to termination at
the convenience of the government client.

Other Matters
- -------------

            The Corporation is not materially dependent upon any raw materials
for its products and holds no material patents, licenses, or franchises. 
However, the Corporation offers for license its proprietary software products: 
Information Engineered Financial Accounting and Reporting System (i.e.FARS(TM));
Debt Management and Collection System (DMCS); Cash Management System (CMS);
Automated Biometric Identification System (ABIDS(TM)); Executive Information
Management System (Executive Touch(TM)) and a suite of re-engineering tools
including SCAN/COBOL, SUPERSTRUCTURE(R), RETOOL(C), COBOL-METRICS, and SLEUTH.

            The Corporation does not experience any seasonal variations in its
levels of operations, and neither the Corporation nor its subsidiaries currently
have any significant foreign operations.

ITEM 2.     PROPERTIES

            The Corporation owns its corporate headquarters building at One
Curie Court, Rockville, Maryland.  The 130,000 square foot facility is used by
both business segments.

            The Corporation is a partner in a general partnership which owns a
25,000 square foot office building in California, Maryland.  The building has
been leased to a tenant through September 1998.
<PAGE>
            In connection with certain professional services contracts, the
Corporation leases general office space in the following locations: Huntsville
and Montgomery, Alabama; Rosslyn, Virginia; Atlanta, Georgia; Fort Worth and San
Antonio, Texas; Beavercreek, Ohio; Mt. Prospect, Illinois; Vicksburg,
Mississippi; Pensacola, Florida; Kansas City, Kansas; St. Louis, Missouri;
Denver, Aurora and Fort Collins, Colorado; Bedford, Indiana; New Orleans,
Louisiana; Cambridge Massachusetts; Cary, North Carolina; and Midwest City,
Oklahoma.  The leases provide space ranging from 500 to 35,000 square feet and
annual extension options concurrent with the Corporation's current contract
performance periods.

            In the opinion of management, the Corporation's current space is
adequate for its operating needs.

ITEM 3.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

            The Corporation is party to various legal proceedings arising in the
normal course of its business.  Management of the Corporation does not believe
that the outcome of any of these proceedings will have a material adverse effect
on the Corporation.

ITEM 4.     SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

            None.

ITEM 5.     MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
            MATTERS

            The Corporation's common stock, par value $.10 per share ("Common
Stock") is publicly traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market ("Nasdaq") and is quoted
under the symbol "CDSI."

            As of September 3, 1996, there were 678 record holders of Common
Stock.  The number of record holders was determined from the records of the
Corporation's transfer agent and does not include beneficial owners of Common
Stock whose shares are held in the names of various securities brokers, 
dealers and registered clearing agencies.  The Corporation estimates that there
are approximately 3,000 stockholders.

            The following table sets forth the high and low sales prices on the
Nasdaq for the Common Stock and dividends per share paid for fiscal years 1995

ITEM 7.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
            RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

1996 Compared With 1995
- -----------------------

            Revenues in fiscal year 1996 increased approximately 14% from 1995. 
The increase resulted primarily from the CDSI BAS (formerly Data Processing
Support Services) Department of Education contract.  CDSI BAS revenues grew 95%
primarily as a result of $42 million growth in the Department of Education
contract.  The expiration of a large CDSI ITS (formerly Professional Services)
contract during 1995 and the reduced scope on the Department of Energy contract
partially offset the increase in revenues.  In fiscal year 1996, CDSI ITS
accounted for 65% of consolidated revenues and 60% of income from operations. 
CDSI BAS accounted for 35% of consolidated revenues and 40% of income from
operations for the year.

            Costs and expenses increased approximately 13%.  Costs which
contributed to the increase in expenses included a significant increase in
subcontractor costs primarily related to our Department of Education contract,
investments in software for the Corporation's internal systems, and continued
emphasis on marketing initiatives.
<PAGE>
            Income from operations was $15,730,100 compared to $12,763,200 in
the prior period.  Operating margins increased to 6.3% from 5.7%.  Margins
increased principally as a result of higher volume levels on contracts in both
segments.  Concurrent with the higher revenue volumes, reductions in i.e.FARS
proprietary development costs, proposal protest costs, and proposal costs
related to the Argentina gaming contract aided the margin improvement.

            Interest and other income, net decreased by $152,000 due to higher
investment gains more than offset by increased interest expense arising from
larger borrowing under the Corporation's line of credit for equipment
commitments on the Argentina contract and accounts receivable growth.

            The provision for income taxes increased due to higher operating
income before income taxes.

            Net income increased by $1,718,300 due to improved operating
results.

1995 Compared With 1994
- -----------------------

            Revenues in fiscal year 1995 increased approximately 7% from 1994. 
The increase resulted primarily from the Data Processing Support Services
Group's Department of Education contract and growth on several contracts in the
Professional Services Group.  Data Processing Support Services Group revenues
grew 70% primarily as a result of $14 million growth in the Department of
Education contract.  The expiration of two large Professional Services Group
contracts during 1994 and the reduced contract scope resulting from the
settlement of the Department of Energy contract protest partially offset the
increase in revenues.  In fiscal year 1995, Professional Services accounted for
80% of consolidated revenues and 89% of income from operations.  Data Processing
Support Services accounted for 20% of consolidated revenues and 11% of income
from operations for the year.

            Costs and expenses increased at approximately the same rate as the
growth in revenues.  Costs which contributed to the increase in expenses
included corporate investments in software development, marketing initiatives,
and continuing development of Centers of Expertise.  Increases in expenses were
mitigated by cost reduction efforts which included reduced interest expense
resulting from the repayment of the note payable ($370,600) and operating
efficiencies realized on the expanding contract base.

            Income from operations was $12,763,200 compared to $12,216,800 in
the prior period.  Operating margins decreased to 5.7% from 5.9%.  Lower margins
in the initial phases of new contracts in the Data Processing Support Services
Group and the corporate investments noted above contributed to the decline in
operating margins.

            Interest and other income, net increased by $129,600, principally
due to a $115,000 gain on the unwinding of an interest rate swap associated with
the note payable, prepaid in September 1994.

            The provision for income taxes increased due to higher operating
income before income taxes and an increase from 38.2% to 38.9% in federal and
state tax rates.

            Net income increased by $321,500 due to improved operating results.
<PAGE>

1994 Compared With 1993
- -----------------------

            Revenues in fiscal year 1994 increased approximately 14% from 1993. 
The increase resulted primarily from new contracts in the Professional Services
and Data Processing Support Services Groups and  increased funding on several
major contracts in the Professional Services Group.  The increase was tempered
by the loss of the General Services Administration Eastern Zone contract ($12
million annual revenues), which expired in March 1994.  Data Processing Support
Services Group revenues grew 45% as the new Department of Education contract
more than offset reduced licensing and mainframe processing services.  In fiscal
year 1994, Professional Services accounted for 87% of consolidated revenues and
85% of income from operations.  Data Processing Support Services accounted for
13% of consolidated revenues and 15% of income from operations for the year.

            Costs and expenses increased approximately 12%, a lower rate than
the increase in revenues.  This resulted from operating efficiencies realized as
the Corporation's business base expanded, higher margins on new contracts
replacing previous contracts, and a $732,100 savings in interest expense charged
to other general and administrative expenses due to the April 1993 refinancing
of the headquarters building mortgage.  The positive effects were offset in part
by increased bid and proposal expenses, legal costs associated with the
Department of Energy bid protest, and software development costs of $600,000.

            Income from operations was $12,216,800 compared to $8,712,700 in the
prior period.  Operating margins improved to 5.9% from 4.8%.  The improvement is
attributable to higher margins on new contracts and operating efficiencies. 

            Interest and other income, net increased by $219,400 due to higher
available investment balances, reduced line of credit borrowings, and investment
gains.

            The provision for income taxes increased due to higher operating
income and higher federal and state tax rates.

            Net income increased by $2,222,000 due to the improved operating
results.


Liquidity
- ---------

            The Corporation's working capital increased by $3,952,900 to
$29,966,700 at June 30, 1996.  The increase was attributable to net income
retained after dividends paid of $633,000 offset by capital expenditures of
approximately $9.7 million including $4.7 million for the Argentina contract. 
As the Corporation bids larger, more complex contracts in both the government
and commercial markets, capital expenditures may be required that are not
directly reimbursable.  Such commitments and other working capital requirements
are expected to be met with internally generated funds.  In addition, the
Corporation has $22 million available its bank line of credit facilities.

            Increased win rates on contract proposals are an integral part of
the Corporation's long-term growth.  The Corporation is continuing to invest in
its business development, marketing, and proposal resources.

Capital Resources
- -----------------

            Capital expenditures in fiscal year 1996 were approximately
$9,700,000 for data processing equipment and software and were funded
internally.  Capital expenditures in fiscal year 1997 are expected to
approximate $4,000,000 and are anticipated to be funded from internally
generated working capital and existing credit facilities.  However, in the event
the Corporation engages in any merger or acquisition activities, the additional
capital that may be required will be funded from external sources.


Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
- ----------------------------------------------
             
            In March 1995, the FASB issued Statement No. 121, "Accounting for
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,"
which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in
operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash
flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets'
carrying amount.  Statement 121 also addresses the accounting for long-lived
assests that are expected to be disposed of.  The Corporation will adopt
Statement 121 in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 1997 and, based on current
circumstances, does not believe the effect of adoption will be material.


Effects of Inflation
- --------------------

            The majority of the Corporation's contracts provide for annual
adjustments on prices.  Increases in revenues are primarily the result of
increased levels of service and product sales rather than price increases.

                         Report of Independent Auditors

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Computer Data Systems, Inc.

      We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Computer
Data Systems, Inc. and subsidiaries, as of June 30, 1996 and 1995 and the
related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity,
and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 1996. 
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

      We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

      In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material  respects, the consolidated financial position of Computer Data
Systems, Inc. and subsidiaries at June 30, 1996 and 1995, and the consolidated
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended June 30, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                          June 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994


1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation.  The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Computer Data Systems, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries.  All
intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue Recognition.  Revenues on time and material contracts are recorded at
the contractual rates as the labor hours and direct expenses are incurred. 
Revenues on cost-type contracts are recorded as reimbursable costs are incurred.
Revenues on fixed-price contracts are recorded on the percentage of completion
basis, determined by the ratio of total incurred costs to anticipated total
costs of the project.  Revenues on unit-price contracts are recorded at
contractual selling prices of work completed and accepted by the customer. 
Contract award fees are recorded based on estimated current performance levels
and historical experience.  Revenues on equipment and software sales are
recorded when the units are delivered and installed.  Immediate recognition is
made of any anticipated losses.

Depreciation and Amortization.  Furniture, computer equipment and software, and
leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and are depreciated over their
estimated useful lives on the straight-line basis.  Building and improvements
are depreciated over a useful life of forty years.  The useful lives of
furniture and equipment range from five to ten years.

Investments.  Deferred annuity contracts included in long-term investments are
carried at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair market value.

Income Taxes.  The Corporation computes deferred income taxes under the
liability method.  Deferred taxes are based on timing differences between
financial statement and income tax purposes, using the enacted tax rates in
effect during the years in which the differences are expected to reverse.  
Net Income Per Common Share.  Net income per share of common stock is based on
the weighted average number of common and common stock equivalent shares
outstanding during each year.  Common stock equivalent shares include the number
of shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, reduced by the
number of shares that could have been repurchased with the proceeds of such
options.

Statements of Cash Flows.  For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the
Corporation considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Reclassifications.  Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year
amounts to conform to current year classifications.
Stock Based Compensation.  During 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued Statement of Financial Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation."  While SFAS No. 123 established financial accounting
and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans using a fair
value method of accounting, it allows companies to continue to measure
compensation costs for those plans using the intrinsic value method of
accounting prescribed in Accounting Principles Board (APB) No. 25, "Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees."  As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Corporation
will not change its method of accounting for stock options but will provide the
additional required disclosures beginning in fiscal 1997.
<PAGE>

Use of Estimates.  The preparation of consolidated financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions, in particular estimates of anticpated contract
costs and revenues utilized in the earnings recognition process, that affect the
reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying  notes.  Actual
results could differ from these estimates.

2. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE  Trade accounts receivable contain no allowance for
doubtful accounts.  The components of trade accounts receivable are as follows:

and 41,676 shares in payment for the exercise of 104,168, 31,200, and 61,200
shares under option during the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994,

7. EMPLOYEE INCENTIVE PLANS  The Corporation has incentive compensation plans
for officers and certain key employees.  The incentive compensation plans'
formulas are reviewed and approved annually by the Board of Directors. 
Operations were charged $2,742,200, $2,546,600, and  $2,496,600 to fund the
incentive compensation plans for the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994,
respectively.  Under the terms of the incentive compensation plans, officers may
elect to defer payment of all or a portion of the amount awarded under the plan
until retirement or termination of employment with the Corporation.  The
deferred amounts earn interest, compounded quarterly at the greater of the
current 13-week Treasury bill rate effective the beginning of each quarter, or
7%.

      The Corporation has defined contribution retirement plans for eligible
employees.  Contributions to the plans are discretionary as determined by the
Board of Directors.  Operations were charged $2,079,300, $1,974,500 and
$2,083,300 to fund the plans in 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively.  Under terms
of the plans, contributions for the benefit of certain long-term employees are
made to a non-qualified supplemental deferred retirement account.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES  The Corporation leases office and warehouse
space and equipment under agreements that provide for minimum aggregate rentals
through 1999 as follows:

                         Fiscal Year              Minimum Aggregate Rentals
                         -----------              -------------------------
                            1997                          $ 690,800
                            1998                            214,900
                            1999                              6,100


   In addition, the office space leases provide for escalation and pass-through
of increases in operating expenses and renewal options.

   Government contracts are subject to review and audit by various governmental
authorities in the normal course of the Corporation's business.  Cost audits
have been completed through fiscal 1993.  In management's opinion, any such
reviews and the results of cost audits for subsequent fiscal years will not have
a material effect on the Corporation's financial position or results of
operations.

   The Corporation is a party to various legal proceedings arising in the normal
course of business.  Management believes that the outcome of these proceedings
will not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation.

Gordon S. Glenn
10705 Stapleford Hall Drive
Potomac, Maryland  20854

Dear Gordon:

      This letter confirms the agreement between you and CDSI  regarding the
terms of your separation from employment.

CDSI'S OBLIGATIONS

CDSI agrees as follows:

1.    Voluntary resignation.  During the period between May 1, 1996 and July 31,
1996, you will hold the title of Senior Advisor and will be on paid status as a
full-time employee and available for consultation with CDSI.  You agree to
resign from your positions as director and officer of CDSI, and from any
positions held in any subsidiary or corporate affiliate thereof, effective April
30, 1996.  CDSI agrees that it will not contest your claim, if any, for
unemployment benefits.

2.    Severance Payment.  You will receive a one-time severance payment in the
amount of $100,000, less appropriate tax deductions on June 30, 1996. You
acknowledge that this severance payment constitutes special consideration in
exchange for your promises under this Agreement, and that CDSI is not otherwise
obligated to provide this payment.  Payment of the amount due under this
paragraph will be made by check mailed to your home address.

3.    Benefits and COBRA Coverage.  Your employment benefits will not be
continued, except as required by law, beyond the time periods in which such
benefits would normally be paid under the terms of CDSI's employment benefits
plans for similarly situated employees terminated on July 31, 1996. You are
entitled to purchase continued medical and dental coverage under COBRA
(Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act) for a period of 18 months,
effective July 31, 1996.  You will continue to receive a car allowance of $450
per month through June 30, 1996.

4.    Options.  Your outstanding options will be exercisable, and will expire,
pursuant to the terms of their respective stock option agreements.

5.    Consulting Agreement.  CDSI agrees to retain you as an independent
contractor at a fee of $21,500 per month from August 1, 1996 to May 31, 1997 in
order to permit CDSI at its discretion to take advantage of the specialized
knowledge and expertise that you have developed during your employment with
CDSI.  You agree to hold yourself available for this ten-month period for
consultation with representatives of CDSI, it being understood that both CDSI
and you will act in good faith to enable you to provide services without
unreasonably interfering with your other obligations.  This Consulting Agreement
shall terminate upon your securing full-time employment, or on May 31, 1997,
whichever occurs earlier.
<PAGE>

6.    Bonus.  You will be eligible for a bonus under the Executive Incentive
Compensation Program in the same manner as other individuals who are
participants in that program as of June 30, 1996.

7.    Fiscal Year 1996 Executive Incentive, Retirement Allocation, and Ten-Year
Supplemental Contribution.  You will receive the executive incentive, retirement
allocation and deferred compensation contribution for fiscal year 1996 in
accordance with the provisions of the CDSI Incentive and Compensation Plan (key
executives' plan), the retirement plan for employees of CDSI, and the
Supplemental Deferred Compensation Plan (Ten-Year, Highly Compensated Employees'
Plan), respectively, in accordance with each of those plans' provisions in the
same manner as other similarly situated participants in employment on June 30,
1996.  

8.    References.  CDSI's Chairman, Clifford Kendall, will refer favorably to
your service for CDSI when he announces the new CEO, and in subsequent public
statements.  He will also provide a favorable recommendation any time an
employer or prospective employer seeks an evaluation or reference pertaining to
you.  Mr. Kendall will provide a favorable written recommendation (letter
reference) to you, if desired.

9.    Secretarial Support and Mailing Address.  CDSI will allow you to use
CDSI's corporate headquarters as a mailing address and provide limited telephone
and secretarial support for you through December 31, 1996 or such earlier date
as you secure alternative employment.

10.   Equipment.  Notwithstanding the terms of the Professional Agreement
regarding the return of CDSI property, you may retain the laptop and docking
station currently in your office at CDSI and the CDSI computer equipment
installed in your home as of the date of this Agreement.  In the event you wish
to retain the monitor and printer currently in your office (in addition to the
monitor and printer installed in your home), you may purchase them from the
Company at a price equal to the value of such equipment as reflected in the
Company's books (approximately $2,000).


YOUR OBLIGATIONS

In consideration of CDSI's Agreement to provide the foregoing benefits and
payments to you, you agree as follows:
<PAGE>

11.   General Release.  On your own behalf and on behalf of your
representatives, heirs, successors, and assigns, you hereby release and forever
discharge CDSI, its officers, directors, representatives, agents, insurers and
employees from any and all causes of action, claims, contracts, agreements,
promises, liabilities, demands, costs or expenses of any nature, fixed or
contingent, known or unknown, accrued or unaccrued, that you may have arising
out of your employment with CDSI and your separation therefrom, up through the
date of your execution of this Agreement, including but not limited to any
action, claim or lawsuit based in tort, contract (expressed or implied), or
under common law principles, or any federal, state or local law, statute or
regulation (including but not limited to all claims under the Age Discrimination
in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. section621 et seq., and all claims for any other
kind of employment discrimination, wrongful discharge, breach of contract, tort,
personal injury or attorney's fees).  You further covenant and agree never to
join, participate in, encourage or commence any action, suit or proceeding in
law or in equity, or before any local, state or federal administrative agency,
against CDSI pertaining to any events which occurred prior to the date of
execution of this Agreement.  It is expressly agreed and understood that this
Agreement is a General Release.

12.   Covenant Not to Compete or Solicit.  You agree that for an eighteen-month
period following your termination, you will not solicit or divert to a
competitor, or retain on behalf of a competitor, any individual or entity who is
a customer of CDSI, was a customer at any time during the preceding 12 months,
or was an individual or entity to whom CDSI was marketing during the 12 months
prior to your resignation.  You further agree that for an eighteen-month period
following your termination, you will not, either directly or indirectly, employ
or seek to employ any person who is at the time or was within the previous six
months employed by CDSI, without the prior express permission of CDSI, which
CDSI may in its absolute discretion withhold.

13.   Waiver of Employment Rights.  You agree to waive any rights that you may
have to employment with CDSI, including any right that may be created by any
future legal action against CDSI.

14.   Cooperation.  You agree that you will cooperate in the future with CDSI,
if necessary, in the same manner you would have cooperated as an employee, in
connection with matters arising as a result of your former responsibilities with
CDSI. 


OTHER PROVISIONS

Both you and CDSI agree as follow:

15.   Confidentiality.  You and CDSI agree to keep the existence and terms of
this Agreement confidential, except as may be required by law, such as when
disclosure is required by a legally served subpoena, audit of tax returns or
federal reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may discuss
this Agreement with your attorneys, tax advisors and immediate family.  

16.   Mutual Non-Defamation.  CDSI agrees that it will not slander or libel you
either in regard to the reasons for your separation from employment with CDSI,
or your job performance and conduct while still employed by CDSI.  You agree
that you will not slander or libel CDSI or any of its directors, officers or
employees concerning either their conduct regarding your separation or their
conduct at any time during your period of employment with CDSI.
<PAGE>
17.   Choice of Law and Severability.  This Agreement shall be construed,
enforced and governed by the laws of Maryland, excluding its choice of law
provisions.  In the event that any provision of this Agreement is later held to
be unenforceable, such holding will not affect any other provision of this
Agreement and the Agreement should be enforced as if the unenforceable provision
had not been included in it.

18.   Nature of the Agreement.  You and CDSI acknowledge that this is the sole
and entire separation agreement between you and CDSI.  Furthermore, no
supplement, modifications or amendment of this Agreement shall be valid or
binding unless in writing and signed by both parties to this Agreement.  In
making this Agreement, both you and CDSI certify that you only relied on the
representations included in this Agreement.

19.   Non-Admissions.  You and CDSI agree that this letter shall not be
construed as an admission of liability by you, CDSI, or CDSI's officers,
directors, agents or employees.

20.   Confidential Information.  You acknowledge that, by reason of your
employment, you have had access to confidential information about the Company,
its products, services and clients, including, without limitation, information
and knowledge pertaining to products, inventions, innovations, designs, ideas,
trade secrets, and proprietary information; research, development and test
results; specifications, data, know-how and formats; manufacturing, packaging,
advertising, distribution and sales methods; sales and profit figures; marketing
plans, business plans, strategies, forecasts, unpublished financial information
and budgets; personnel information; customer and client lists; and information
regarding the history of and relationships between the Company and dealers,
distributors, sales representatives, wholesalers, customers, clients, suppliers
and others ("Confidential Information").  

You further acknowledge that such Confidential Information is a valuable and
unique asset of the Company and covenant that, following your resignation, you
will not disclose any Confidential Information to any person without the prior
written authorization of the Board of Directors.  You agree that following your
resignation, you will promptly return to the Company any documents, files or
other materials in your possession or custody, with the exception of documents
relating to compensation or benefits to which you are entitled following the
termination of your employment.

Your signature below acknowledges that you have read this Agreement, understand
its terms and have entered into it knowingly and voluntarily.

Very truly yours,

General
- -------

   The following information is submitted concerning the enclosed form of proxy
and the matters to be acted upon under authority thereof at the Annual Meeting
of Stockholders of the Corporation to be held on the 22nd day of October 1996,
commencing at 10:00 a.m., or at any adjournment thereof, pursuant to the
accompanying notice of said meeting.  The Annual Meeting will be held at the
Corporation's headquarters located at One Curie Court, Rockville, Maryland

Solicitation And Revocability Of Proxies 
- ----------------------------------------

   The proxy is solicited on behalf of the Board of Directors of the

will be voted in accordance with the specification so made, and in the absence
thereof will be voted by the proxy holders as directed by management.  

   The cost of solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Corporation.  In
addition to solicitation by mail, certain directors, officers and regular
employees of the Corporation may solicit proxies by facsimile, telephone or
personal interview for which they will receive no additional compensation.  In
addition, arrangements will be made with brokerage firms and other custodians,
nominees and fiduciaries to forward solicitation material for the meeting to
beneficial owners, and the Corporation will reimburse them for their reasonable
expenses in so doing.

Voting Rights And Oustanding Shares
- -----------------------------------

   Only stockholders of record on the books of the Corporation at the close of
business on September 3, 1996, will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the
Annual Meeting.  As of that date, there were 5,937,470 shares of Common Stock
issued and outstanding and entitled to vote.  Each share of Common Stock is
entitled to one vote for each matter submitted to the stockholders for approval.
<PAGE>

   A majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote must be present in
person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting to constitute a quorum. 
Shares represented by properly executed proxies with respect to which a vote is
withheld, an abstention is indicated, or a broker does not vote ("broker
nonvotes") will be treated as shares that are present and entitled to vote for
purposes of determining a quorum, but those shares will not be treated as having
been voted for purposes of determining the approval of any matter submitted to
the stockholders for a vote.  Unless otherwise noted in this proxy statement,
all matters to come before the meeting identified in the accompanying notice
require the affirmative vote of a majority of those shares, present in person or
by proxy and voting at the Annual Meeting, to be adopted, assuming that a quorum
is present.

</TABLE>



MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES OF THE BOARD
- ------------------------------------

      The Corporation has standing Executive and Audit/Compensation Committees
of the Board of Directors.  The Board of Directors does not have a Nominating
Committee.  The Board of Directors of the Corporation held four meetings during
the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996.  All directors attended at least 75% of the
aggregate number of meetings of the Board of Directors and Committees on which
they served.  Overall attendance at such meetings was 99%.  

      The Executive Committee has the power and authority of the Board of
Directors and meets several times during the year in months when the Board of
Directors does not meet.  Messrs. Kendall, Paige, Staats, Ignatius and Parker
serve on the Executive Committee.  In the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, the
Executive Committee met five times.  
<PAGE>
      The Audit/Compensation Committee makes recommendations regarding the
engagement of the Corporation's independent auditors, reviews the arrangement
and scope of the audit, considers comments made by the independent auditors with
respect to the adequacy of the Corporation's internal accounting controls, and
reviews non-audit services provided by the firm.  In addition, this committee
reviews and approves (or recommends to the full Board) the annual salary, bonus
and other benefits of senior management of the Corporation; reviews and makes
recommendations to the Board relating to executive compensation and plans; and
establishes, and periodically reviews, the Corporation's policy with respect to
management perquisites.  The Audit/Compensation Committee also presently serves
as the committee of disinterested persons who administer the Corporation's 1991
Long-Term Incentive Plan.  Messrs. Paige, Staats, Ignatius and Parker serve on
the Audit/Compensation Committee.  During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996,
the Audit/Compensation Committee met five times.


COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS
- -------------------------

      Directors who are employees receive no additional compensation for serving
as directors.  In the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, non-employee directors
received the following amounts for each meeting of the Board of Directors they
attended:  Dr. Hoxeng received $2,000 per meeting and Messrs. Paige, Staats,
Ignatius, and Parker each received $1,200.  Messrs. Paige, Staats, Ignatius, and
Parker also received a retainer of $12,000 each in the fiscal year ended June
30, 1996, for services rendered as members of the Executive and
Audit/Compensation Committees of the Board of Directors.  

      Pursuant to the Corporation's 1991 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan"),
non-employee directors of the Corporation also are granted stock options upon
being named a director and thereafter on an annual basis.  In the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1996, each non-employee director was granted options to purchase
1,500 shares.  The options become exercisable one year after the date of grant
and expire five years from the date of grant.

                              EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

REPORT OF AUDIT/COMPENSATION COMMITTEE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
- ----------------------------------------------------------------

      The Audit/Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which is
composed of outside directors of the Corporation, is responsible for developing
and recommending to the Board of Directors the Corporation's general
compensation policies.  The Committee approves the compensation plans for the
Corporation's executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO),
and determines the compensation to be paid to the executive officers.  The
Audit/Compensation Committee also is responsible for the granting of stock
options to the executive officers and the administration thereof.

      The Audit/Compensation Committee has furnished the following report for
fiscal year 1996:

Compensation Philosophy.  The following general principles have been adopted by
the Committee and represent the guidelines upon which compensation decisions are
based.  Executive compensation is designed to:

      Provide a competitive total compensation package that enables the
      Corporation to attract and retain key executives who demonstrate
      outstanding performance, technical expertise, business responsibility,
      personal integrity, and professionalism.

      Encourage cooperation and coordination among executives to meet the
      Corporation's long-term business objectives and strategy.

      Provide variable compensation that is directly linked with the financial
      performance of the Corporation and the achievement of increased
      stockholder value.

Executive Officer Compensation.  The Corporation's executive compensation
program consists of three main components:  (i) annual base salary, (ii) annual
incentive cash bonus, and (iii) equity participation.  The executive officers,
including the CEO, are eligible for the same benefits, including group health
and life insurance and participation in the Corporation's Employee Retirement
Plan and 401(k) Savings Plan, as are available generally to the Corporation's
professional staff.  The Corporation also provides whole life "split dollar"
insurance policies on the lives of the executive officers.  The Corporation is
the beneficiary of the amount of its premiums paid with the remaining amounts
payable to the officers' estates.  The executives may elect, under certain
circumstances, to convert the policy to an annuity based on the cash value less
premiums paid.  

      The compensation policies that are administered by the Committee are
further explained below:

Base Salary - Base salaries are competitive, but not excessive, assuring the
Corporation the ability to attract and retain qualified officers yet maintain a
relatively low cost structure for officer salaries.  Base pay levels are
reviewed annually and established through comparisons with other professional
services firms of similar size and complexity.
<PAGE>
Annual Incentive - Executive officers participate as a team in an incentive
compensation program with awards based on the attainment of predetermined
financial targets set annually by the Committee and on individual performance.
For 1996, the targets were based on achieving certain Corporation pre-tax levels
of income.  The objective is to reward executives for meeting the predetermined
targets and provide opportunities for above average earnings by attaining
superior financial results for the Corporation and the stockholders.

Equity Participation - Non-qualifying  stock  option  awards are granted
annually based on performance and serve as an incentive to enhance stockholder
value.  Options are issued to executive officers, (as well as other line
officers and key employees) who have substantial responsibility for the
management and growth of the Corporation.  Options granted are evidenced by an
agreement  setting  forth the  number  of  shares  awarded, and  such  other 
terms and conditions as determined by the Committee.  Options vest and become
exercisable in annual installments of twenty-five percent of the shares covered
by each grant commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date and expire
in five years from the grant date.  In setting the size of grants for the CEO
and other executives, the Committee considers their position, individual
performance, stock options presently held, and the total number of shares
available for the issuance under the Corporation's stock option plan.

Compensation of the Current and Former CEO.  The annual salary for the President
and CEO is established by the Audit/Compensation Committee using the same
criteria as discussed above for the executive officers.  The CEO's annual
incentive compensation payment is determined by the Committee largely based on
whether targets for the Corporation's pre-tax income are met.  The amount of
stock options granted to the CEO are intended to align the future rewards of the
CEO with the interests of the stockholders.

      Gordon S. Glenn, who served as President and CEO of the Corporation since
1991, resigned from this position effective April 30, 1996.  Mr. Glenn's salary
for fiscal year 1996 was $256,231, which represents an increase of approximately
twenty-three percent over his salary for the previous year.  The percentage of
increase reflects the Committee's desire to bring the Corporation's compensation
for its top executives more in line with industry standards.  Mr. Glenn's cash
award for fiscal year 1996 (shown in the Bonus column of the Summary 
Compensation Table) was determined based on the Corporation's performance with
respect to the targets for 1996 pre-tax profits.  Mr. Glenn was also awarded
stock options at the beginning of fiscal year 1996.  As part of his separation
agreement with the Corporation, Mr. Glenn continued to draw his regular salary
through the end of July 1996 and will continue to serve the Corporation as a
consultant during fiscal year 1997.

      Peter A. Bracken, the current President and CEO, joined the Corporation on
May 13, 1996.  His compensation package, including salary and grant of stock
options, was established by the Audit/Compensation Committee and is consistent
with the Corporation's philosophy for executive compensation set out above.  Mr.
Bracken was not eligible for an incentive compensation payment for fiscal year
1996.
<PAGE>
Tax Compliance Policy.  Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally
limits to $1,000,000 the tax deductible compensation paid to the CEO and to each
of the four highest-paid executives employed as executive officers on the last
day of the fiscal year.  However, the limitation does not apply to performance-
based compensation provided certain conditions are satisfied.  The Committee
does not anticipate that in the foreseeable future any officer of the
Corporation will earn compensation in excess of $1 million that would not
qualify as performance-based compensation.  Therefore, the Committee has not yet
determined a policy with respect to Section 162(m).  The Committee intends to
review the implications of Section 162(m) when it becomes more relevant with
respect to the Corporation's executive compensation policies.

    SEPARATION AGREEMENT WITH FORMER PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

      In April 1996, the Corporation entered into a separation agreement with
Gordon S. Glenn in connection with his resignation from CDSI.  While Mr. Glenn
resigned as a Director and as  President and Chief Executive Officer of CDSI,
and from all positions with CDSI subsidiaries and affiliates effective April 30,
1996, Mr. Glenn agreed to remain as a full-time employee of the Corporation
through July 31, 1996.  Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Mr. Glenn
received a one-time severance payment of $100,000 and certain other benefits. 
In addition, Mr. Glenn agreed to continue to serve the Corporation as a
consultant for a portion of fiscal year 1997.  The consultant fees payable to
Mr. Glenn under the agreement could reach $215,000, depending upon when Mr.
Glenn secures another full-time position.

    covered by each grant commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date,
    and expire in five years from the grant date.
(4)  The dollar amounts under the potential realizable values columns use the 5%
    and 10% rates of appreciation permitted by the SEC, and are not intended to
    forecast actual future appreciation in the stock price.  Actual gains, if
    any, on stock option exercises are dependent on the future performance of
    the Corporation's Common Stock.  There can be no assurance the amounts
    reflected in this table will be achieved.  The assumed rates are compounded
    annually to the full five-year term of the options.
(5)  Mr. Glenn resigned from the Corporation effective July 31, 1996.  Pursuant
    to the terms of the Stock Option Agreement governing the July 18, 1995

                    ITEM 2:  APPROVAL OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

      At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders will be asked to approve the
appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Corporation's independent auditors for
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1997.  The Audit/Compensation Committee has
recommended that the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP be approved by the
stockholders.  Representatives of Ernst & Young LLP are expected to be present
at the Annual Meeting with the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to
do so, and such representatives are expected to be available to respond to
appropriate questions. 

      Approval of the selection of the independent auditors will require the
affirmative vote of holders of shares of Common Stock representing a majority of
the number of votes present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual
Meeting, provided a quorum is present.     

          THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT ALL STOCKHOLDERS VOTE
                    FOR APPROVAL OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

             SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

      Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires
the Corporation's directors and executive officers to file reports of ownership
and changes of ownership with the SEC and the Nasdaq Stock Market.  The
Corporation believes that during the period from July 1, 1995 through June 30,
1996, its directors and executive officers complied with all applicable Section
16(a) filing requirements except that one Form 4 filed on behalf of Mr. Kendall
reporting the sale of securities in May 1996 was inadvertently filed four days
late.
