Foundations for Multifile Design by Application Partitioning (Preliminary Version)

Summary: Partition attributes into multiple sequential-access files (tapes) allowing duplication so each application’s required attributes reside on a single tape. Develops foundational models and assignment rules for multifile design under sequential-access and workload constraints. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
