Abstract

As the computer industry begins to experience a transition from centralized processors to distributed environments of networked processors, a methodology for conversion must be considered. Various considerations are identified in this paper that affect the development of this new technology. The impact of data models for distributed databases is considered. The concept of a dictory, a dictionary/directory facility, is developed as the focal point for extension into the distributed environment.
