Abstract

This paper identifies issues that are important to statisticians, namely, the need for a central query language and statistical database which can easily interact with a variety of systems and stand-along programs; discusses the requirements of a host database; suggests a structure for a rudimentary database; describes STATAN, a modest system for data exchange among statistical analysis packages and proposes a wish-list of future considerations.
