Harbor Branch Foundation, Inc., a not-for-profit research organization located in Ft. Pierce. Florida has been developing scientific relational data bases for several years. The relational architecture creates a flexible, open-ended data structure which can be easily modified and expanded as required. Rapid system prototyping and development are features of relational data base structures which have proven to be quite useful. INFO, a fourth generation language, has been used successfully to develop several major relational data base management systems at Harbor Branch. This paper will discuss relational data base concepts and design considerations involved in developing a scientific relational data base system. Examples of data structures and coding techniques will also be presented. Personal use of this material is permitted.
