Description: Scope/Content: Hugh Everett III invented the first relational database-type program. It was used by Lambda and American Management Systems (which hired Everett) in business applications. This document describes how database software, at this point in its infancy, could streamline business operations. Everett supervised the creation of this report, but multiple Lambda staff probably contributed to it.
Scope/Content: This document was found in the basement of Mark Everett in 2007 by Mark Everett and Peter Byrne.
