GENERALIZED ORGANIZATION OF LARGE DATA BASES: A SET-THEORETIC APPROACH TO RELATIONS
A. I. Fillat, L. A. Kraning · DSpace@MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) · 1970
Problems inherent in representation and manipulation of large data bases are discussed. Data management is considered as the manipulation of relationships among elements of a data base. A detailed analogy introduces concepts embodied in a data management system. Set theory is used to describe a model for data-bases, and operations suitable for manipulation of relations are defined.
