Abstract

This paper reports work toward melding some ideas from data base management with currently popular views of structured programming. The basic idea is to allow all data structures used inside programs (instead of just those in an external data base) to be described at multiple conceptual levels by a separate definition. This approach brings to programmers the benefits of data independence and also allows structured programming to have its hitherto unrealized full effect on data.
