Quotation

large-scale databases:] Use of schemas. Schemas are chunks of data (e.g., a frame or tree of frames) that contain variable parts. Schemas can be used to build data objects that have some common parts, simply by copying the schemas and filling in the variable parts manually. Ramakrishna [RAMA81] developed elaborate, built-in schema mechanisms for ZOG and studied their use experimentally.   Google-1   Google-2
