Abstract: Abstract SIR/DBMS is a database management system that has been geared to the unique needs of the research community. The data definition commands in SIR/DBMS are patterned after the well-known statistical package SPSS, and SIR/DBMS interfaces directly (through the creation of system files) to SPSS, BMDP and any other system that can read SPSS system files, such as SAS and P-STAT. SIR/DBMS can easily handle complex hierarchical and network data structures.
