Method of storing, maintaining and distributing computer intelligible electronic data

A computer readable medium comprising a plurality of instructions for storing, maintaining and distributing computer intelligible electronic data which, when read by a computer system having a storage device capable of storing electronic data, causes the computer to perform the steps of:

• accessing a first set of electronic data stored upon said storage device;
• analyzing said first set of data to determine a structure associated with said first set of data;
• tokenizing said first set of data;
• assigning a first plurality of tokenized symbolic identifiers to said first set of data based upon said structure of said first set of data;
• accessing a second set of electronic data;
• analyzing said second set of data to determine a structure associated with said second set of data;
• tokenizing said second set of data;
• assigning a second plurality of tokenized symbolic identifiers to said second set of data based upon said structure of said second set of data;
• comparing said second plurality of identifiers to said first plurality of identifiers;
• if said second plurality of identifiers substantially matches said first plurality of identifiers, storing said second set of data within a first data storage structure on said storage device;
• if said second plurality of identifiers does not substantially match said first plurality of identifiers, creating a second data storage structure within said storage device;
• and
• storing said second set of data within said second storage structure.

A computer system for storing, maintaining and distributing computer intelligible electronic data comprising:

• a storage device capable of storing electronic data, said storage device containing a first set of electronic data;
• a processing unit, coupled to said storage device, for accessing said first set of electronic data, for analyzing said first set of data to determine a structure associated with said first set of data, for tokenizing said first set of data, and for assigning a first plurality of tokenized symbolic identifiers to said first set of data based upon said structure of said first set of data;
• wherein said processing unit is further defined as being capable of accessing a second set of electronic data, analyzing said second set of data to determine a structure associated with said second set of data, tokenizing said second set of data, assigning a second plurality of tokenized symbolic identifiers to said second set of data based upon said structure of said second set of data, comparing said second plurality of identifiers to said first plurality of symbolic identifiers and, if said second plurality of identifiers substantially matches said first plurality of identifiers, storing said second set of data within a first data storage structure on said storage device;
• and
• wherein said processing unit is further defined as being capable of, if said second plurality of identifiers does not substantially match said first plurality of identifiers, creating a second data storage structure within said storage device and storing said second set of data within said second storage structure of said storage device.
