摘要
A space management system comprises a space management applications program, possibly executing concurrently with other applications programs, and an Operating Environment. The applications program comprises support files (including a structure file) and a functions file. An Operating Environment at a level of software between the operating system level and the applications program level controls a user's interface with one or more concurrently executing applications program. By forming a common data structure, the Operating Environment allows functions within the various applications programs to execute independently of the nature of the particular user interface. The common data structure, part of an aggregate applications program, arranges data so as to be concurrently accessible to the functions originating in the various applications programs. Conversely, the user interface remains substantially of the same character, regardless of the particular nature of the applications programs. Independence of the applications programs from particular input and output devices and batch data devices and formats is also enabled. High-level Batch Data System software modules are flexibly interconnectible with low-level, device-specific, format-specific modules. The flexible interconnectibility shields the user from the specifics of data storage formats, and easily accomodates new formats without changing high-level software.
