A Study of Integrated Data Base for Japanese Historical Materials

1历史研究所一直在开发日本史料数据库系统（SHIPS）。本项目的目的是改进SHIPS以适应新的计算机环境，即多媒体、开放系统和个人计算。2 SHIPS的改进内容如下：（1）将历史文献数据库与光盘系统上的图片数据库和数字图像打印机上的16 mm缩微胶片库连接起来。(2)我们的WWW主页（HTTP：//www.hi.u-tokyo.ac.jp）被打开，并实验性地链接到匿名FTP服务器（shipsnw.hi.u-tokyo.ac.jp），以获取历史图片和文本数据。(3)开发了一些新的数据库系统。我们现在有以下数据库系统：（1）与图片数据连接的目录数据库日本历史文献数据库（2）与16 mm缩微胶片库连接的目录数据库日本历史文献数据库（岛津府文献）（3）与16毫米缩微胶卷库连接的全文数据库明治维新年代资料数据库（4）全文数据库古代和中世纪日本年表数据库古代日本日记数据库（5）人物和官方职位索引数据库中世纪日本日记数据库日本历史年表数据库

1 The Historiographical Institute has been developing the data base system for Japanese historical materials (SHIPS). The purpose of the project is to improve SHIPS to be adapted to new environment of computer, namely multimedia, open system and personal computing.2 Contents of improvement of SHIPS are as follows ;(1) The data bases for historical documents was linked to picture data base on optical disk system and to 16mm microfilm library on a digital image printer.(2) Our home page for WWW (HTTP : //www.hi.u-tokyo.ac.jp) was opened and experimentally linked to anonymousFTP server (shipsnw.hi.u-tokyo.ac.jp) for historical picture and text data.(3) Some new data base systems were developed.3 As the results of the project. we have following data base systems now ;(1) Inventory data base linked to picture dataData base for Japanese historical documents(2) Inventory data base linked to 16mm microfilm libraryData base for Japanese historical documents (the Documents of Shimazu House)(3) Full text data base linked to 16mm microfilm libraryData base for chronological materials of Meiji Restoration(4)Full text data baseData base for chronological table of ancient and medieval JapanData base for diaries of ancient Japan(5) Index data base for persons and official postsData base for diaries of medieval JapanData base for Dai-nihon Shiryo (Chronological Source-books of Japanese History)
