Abstract

We list desirable features of statistical databases (SDB) and summarize the architecture and major features of a statistical database manaqement system, called the System for Statistical Databases (SSDB). SSDB uses a semantic data model designed to facilitate the data manipulation tasks of statistical database users. It incorporates tools to model operational populations such as experimental, cleaned, interpreted and representative populations, and has the capacity to model summary tables, histograms, matrices, crosstabulations, scatter diagrams and two-dimensional plots. The data model uses the compartmentalization concept to minimize the effects of SDB security enforcement. The SSDB software is partitioned into certified and uncertified modules, and the flow of control within SSDB is designed to allow SDB security checking at execution time. Finally SSDB has a screen-oriented query language to manipulate summary and raw data. The paper concludes with a brief overview of the existing and proposed systems.
