The desire to express interrelationships between symbolic objects has been with us for some time, along with exploration of relationship systems which are operational in a computer. These systems coalesced under the term relational data systems (RDS), and a technology for dealing with this kind of data evolved. Relational systems have been through feasibility tests, experimental usage and should become generally available to the computing community in the near future. The advantages which account for the expanding use of RDSs are a simple, formal definition which allows associative processing, extreme flexibility in both structure and use, an ability to be efficiently implemented, and a notation and conception which is not dependent upon any particular physical data representation.
