DATA MANAGEMENT: A COMPARISON OF SYSTEM FEATURES

Abstract

Features of four data management systems under development are compared. The four systems are the Time-Shared Data Management System (System Development Corporation) and a variant of it, the Remote File Management System (Computation Center, The University of Texas); Data Manager - 1 (Auerbach Corporation); the Generalized Information System (IBM); and the Catalog System (The RAND Corporation). Comparisons are drawn in two areas: external and internal data structuring and organization. Several differences among the systems are noted and briefly discussed.
