TOSS Common User Capability.
Abstract
The TOSS Common User Capability addresses the need to make user communication with large structured files of data as simple and logical as possible by providing interactive interface between the TOSS Information Management System (TIMS) and a user who is more familiar with his data base than he is with the mechanics of programming and file manipulation. The specific areas of data base management incorporated in the TOSS Common User Capability are file data definition, updating a data base, querying a data base, and generating formatted reports of file data. User language access to data management functions is primarily in the form of a simple dialogue conducted at his terminal, in which the user's commands and responses are prompted by the system.
