Peer reviewedGolashvili, T. V. – Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1973
The need to provide reliable information on the properties of substances and materials has led to the proposed establishment of a numerical data system. The problems this poses, the most urgent of which is that of developing basic methodological principles underlying the data system processes, are discussed. (32 references) (Author/KE)

Peer reviewedAnd Others; Eckermann, E. H. – Journal of Chemical Documentation, 1972
Almost three million records covering approximately 175,000 chemical compounds and involving multiple disciplines have been recorded in the Army Antimalarial Drug Program. Maximum compartmentalization of files together with a complete method of interfacing files and a unique number system has made it possible to manage this system. (2 references)…

Peer reviewedRowlett, Russell J.; Tate, Fred A. – Journal of Chemical Documentation, 1972
Among other improvements in chemical nomenclature used in the Chemical Registry System, Chemical Abstracts Service intends to standardize the fundamental principles for naming cyclic structures so that procedures for the derivation of ring names can become more amenable to computer generation and translation. (Author/NH)

Peer reviewedDeforeit, Huguette; And Others – Journal of Chemical Documentation, 1972
A computer system, named CORA, has been devised for coding chemical structures by fragmentation elements. It has been used to encode Markush formulas in patents according to the Ring codes used in the Ringdoc and Pestdoc services and results in an easy, speedy, reliable and inexpensive method.
