ADAPT I Uniform Data Language (UDL): A Final Specification.

Abstract

Under the ADAPT project, a prototype intelligent terminal will be developed which provides users and/or other systems a uniform interface for accessing multiple on line data bases located on different systems. The underlying technology applied by ADAPT will be the transformation from one uniform data language, UDL, to other target query languages which reside on a network. ADAPT will be comprised of four phases: ADAPT I provides the fundamental ADAPT system atchitecture baseline for subsequent phases and also a limited user data base query and display facility for four data base management systems. ADAPT II will provides users a data base maintenance facility for four DBMSs, as well as data display enhancements. ADAPT III will produce two production models of ADAPT, one installed in network centers and the other as a stand-alone intelligent terminal. ADAPT IV will provide a local data base manager for onsite file creation. (Author)
