This paper describes an approach to data management that is based on a hierarchical organization of the data management control function and makes use of list processing concepts. Discussed are the separation of the logical and physical control functions as well as the data-element and operating-system controls. This hierarchical approach establishes a common basis for the creation, maintenance, and retrieval of data in direct-access storage. Logical functions express the control and management of generalized physical data structures; the physical leuel typically includes strings for data retrieval and maintenance. Undirected graphs, and matrices derived from them, illustrate the data management relationships within the physical level. The same type of analysis may be used to show relationships between the hierarchical levels.
