Traditional database management systems have been deemed unsuitable for use in the Computer Aided Engineering environment Object-oriented data models with project management features have been proposed as an alternative. The Distributed Hypothetical Storage System is intended to serve as the underlying storage mechanism for an object-oriented data model. The storage...
Shoot apex senescence is defined as the collective progressive
and deteriorative processes which ultimately terminate the functional
life of the shoot apex. Senescence of shoot apices of Pisum sativum
L. 'Alaska' as measured by cessation of stem elongation was delayed
by removal of flowers and by treatment with gibberellin A₃...
The purpose of this study was to present the new women's
studies program for the community college. The study advocated
consciousness raising for females at all levels of public instruction,
but this paper was limited to the community college. The program
outlined would seek to help women to assume a...
This document describes the design and implementation of a pair of language interfaces to a network database management system. CSDDL provides the DBMS with a data description language facility, and CSDSDL functions as a data storage description language interface of the DBMS. Source languages of CSDDL and CSDSDL are approximately...
This survey looks at five different polygon breaking algorithms and compares them. The criteria for comparison are:
1. Complexity of the algorithm.
2. The number and type of subpolygons produced.
3. The classes of input polygons that can be broken.
The best algorithm is then coded and a comparison is...
Display, which is the function for displaying the
schema of the network at the conceptual level, is implemented
to enhance the network database system ALLEGRO.
To display the schema is one step towards modifiable
schemas in the network model. The problem of updating a
schema is examined at all three...
The minimal kernel for a network data base management
system is developed. It includes format specification for
the object schema and the data base file, and routines for
performing the basic network functions.
The object schema defines the relationship between the
schema, records, sets, and fields. It informs the system...
The SEAS Directory and File Manager is a multiple window interactive tool to assist users in modifying and maintaining UNIX files and directories. This tool includes a show directory utility, a show file utility, a type file utility and provides access to the UNIX shell.
This paper discusses a new approach to the design of operating systems. We view the jobs or tasks in this system as a number of small independent steps or functions which are sequenced together to produce a desired result. The concepts upon which this operating system is based are drawn...
