Another approach to the data base computer
ACM '80: Proceedings of the ACM 1980 annual conferencePages 382–388https://doi.org/10.1145/800176.809993Data base computers have been identified as one means of using hardware to improve the performance of current Data Base Management (Software) Systems while offering increased functionality. This paper describes a data base computer architecture and its ...

Data Usage And The Data Base Processor
ACM '78: Proceedings of the 1978 annual conferencePages 234–240https://doi.org/10.1145/800127.804104Although the use of Data Base Management Systems is rapidly growing, there is little hard data on how these systems are being used. However, this information is critical to defining the functional requirements for a data base processor which can ...

A Utility For The Generation Of A Preliminary Data/Dictionary Directory
ACM '78: Proceedings of the 1978 annual conferencePages 223–229https://doi.org/10.1145/800127.804102All Information Processing Systems (IPSs) consist of users, data, and algorithms. The algorithms draw upon the store of data to satisfy user requests. In order to process requests, however, a great deal of meta data, or data about data must be employed. ...

Impertinent Question-Answering Systems: justification and theory
A Question-Answering System (QAS) is impertinent if it tells a user something the user did not ask! Since a user rarely understands the full implications of a data base, especially a large one, his question is limited by his knowledge of the data base. ...

The relational and network approaches: Comparison of the application programming interfaces
SIGFIDET '74: Proceedings of the 1974 ACM SIGFIDET (now SIGMOD) workshop on Data description, access and control: Data models: Data-structure-set versus relationalPages 83–113https://doi.org/10.1145/800297.811532For some time now there has been considerable debate in the field of database systems over the fundamental question of the underlying design philosophy of such a system. The controversy has centered on the structure of the programmer interface, though ...

Interactive support for non-programmers: The relational and network approaches
SIGFIDET '74: Proceedings of the 1974 ACM SIGFIDET (now SIGMOD) workshop on Data description, access and control: Data models: Data-structure-set versus relationalPages 11–41https://doi.org/10.1145/800297.811529The objectives and strategies of the relational and network approaches are compared. The status of support for non-programming users is examined. General purpose support for such users entails provision of an augmented relationally complete retrieval ...

Very high-level language design: A viewpoint
Recent developments in very high-level language design indicate that these languages hold great promise for improving the level of man-machine communication, and hence improving computer and programmer utilization. (Essentially, a very high-level ...
