File-Level Operations On Network Data Structures

Summary: Extends file-level operations from hierarchies to network data structures (e.g., CODASYL) to enable bulk manipulation, database creation, and updates. Outlines requirements and a concrete language design for a facility that offers self-contained, set-based operations on network schemas. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
