A Chemical Information and Data System
Abstract
The document describes research activities in progress under Project CIDS through which a model operational chemical information and data system was developed. The document discloses the present state of CIDS file building and reports the successful incorporation of the revised chemical search screens into the system and the establishment of chemical specifications for handling certain currently inadmissible classes of compounds. Various improvements in search and file building techniques are reported, including an acceptable method for analyzing complex ring systems, and the status of R and D with the cathode ray tube as an input-output device is described. Also included are reports of recent CIDS computer documentation and a description of the formal CIDS No. 7 report on query formulation and encoding.
