Data management for microcomputers

TL;DR: The common data base architecture exploits functional commonality within and across systems to facilitate the compact implementation of a single system which supports file and data base functionality for various programming languages, data models, and data architectures.

Abstract: A common data base archi?ecture and its application to the implementation of data management facilities for resource-limited systems are described. The common data base architecture exploits functional commonality within and across systems to facilitate the compact implementation of a single system which supports file and data base functionality for various programming languages, data models, and data architectures. The exploitation of functional commonality within systems is reflected in a recursive data architecture which covers both definitional and manipulation user interfaces. This recursive architecture permits implementations consisting of compact software modules which may be applied at various interfaces or may be applied recursively across several interfaces.
