Abstract: This paper and the five following summarize the material presented at a session on file management systems at the ASIS Annual Meeting in October 1969. The term file management refers to computer systems that address the full range of processing activities associated with files, not only retrieval, but also file formatting, updating, and maintenance. To provide a common basis for reporting recent work in this area, an exercise in computer processing of document reference material was defined and distributed to those interested in participating. The exercise consisted of file building, updating, and correction processes, as well as a variety of sample inquiries and reports. Seventy articles on data processing were used as the data base.
