Input/output considerations for large data bases.

Abstract

Input/output devices, format designs, and programming for rejecting defective input, updating and correcting input, and for producing a variety of outputs from the input are discussed, especially from the viewpoint of a large data base and that of the information needs of the users.

Data note system for capturing laboratory data.

The complexity of genome data limits the usefulness of traditional database management systems. The highly interconnected structure of genome data can be captured in a data representation language based on the mathematical formalism of graphs. We have tailored graphs for describing genome data and have developed a database management system, called the Data Note System, for developing small databases to capture data from genome laboratories. To simplify the use of the Data Note System, a series of tools with graphical user interfaces has been developed. The system is designed to be easy to install and use by novice database developers with a minimal amount of computer expertise. We describe the tools and present examples of their use. The system consists of a storage facility, a schema editing tool to simplify the design of small databases, and three tools for data entry and querying.
