1. An automatic creation system for device connection definitions in a data independent type computer system connected to a network, said automatic creation system comprising:

  • a processing machine which receives from the network first electronic statements containing operational processing requests from the network, sends second electronic statements containing results of operational processing to the network, sends third electronic statements containing data access requests to the network, receives fourth electronic statements containing results of data access from the network, and executes the operational processing corresponding to the first through fourth electronic statements;

    a data machine which receives the third electronic statements containing the data access requests from the network, sends the fourth electronic statements containing the results of the data access requests to the network, and accesses stored data in response to the third electronic statements;

    a man-machine interface machine which sends the first electronic statements containing the operational processing requests to the network, receives the second electronic statements containing the results of the operational processing from the network, and executes man-machine-interface processing corresponding to the first and second electronic statements;

    means for connecting at least one of said processing machine, said data machine and said man-machine interface machine to the network; and

    a first network manager, connected to the network, which manages the connection attributes and the connection relationships among any of said processing machine, said data machine and said man-machine interface machine connected to the network.
