| dc.description.abstract | An advanced database system would have the following characteristics:
* Universal access by all network users from any computer connected by modem
* An extended browse feature that would allow users to navigate easily through the different databases
* An interface that makes connections easily and allows users to merge different databases and combine information from different databases transparently
* Graphics, software, and text files that are readily accessible, and the capability for system upgrading
* The capability of searching, creating, modifying, and deleting data efficiently using call-up procedures in other systems, while protecting the integrity of the system
* The ability to protect the data from unauthorized access as well as from inadvertent and malicious damage
* System management that is not overly complex. | en |
