ABSTRACT

The term databank implies a centralized collection of data to which a number of users have access. A computerized databank system consists of the data files, the associated computer facility, a management structure, and a user community. Several classes of databank systems can be defined on the basis of the nature of the organization supported by the databank, and its activity; the nature of the data and its uses; and the structure of the associated computer facility. Such classifications have been discussed in detail elsewhere.
