Computer Science and Technology: Data Base Directions-The Conversion Problem

摘要

What information can help a manager assess the impact a conversion will have on a data base system, and of what aid will a data base system be during a conversion. At a workshop on the data base conversion problem held in November 1977, approximately seventy-five participants provided the decision makers with useful data. The workshop explore data base conversion from four perspectives: management, previous experience, standards, and system technology. Each perspective was covered by a workshop panel that produced a report included here.
