The [[IBM Information Management System]] (IMS) uses the term "access method" to refer to its methods for manipulating "segments in a database record". These are:
* [[Generalized Sequential Access Method]] ([[GSAM]]),
* [[Hierarchical Direct Access Method]] ([[HDAM (computing)|HDAM]]),
* [[Hierarchical Indexed Direct Access Method]] ([[HIDAM]]),
* [[Hierarchical Indexed Sequential Access Method]] ([[HISAM]]),
* [[Hierarchical Sequential Access Method]] ([[HSAM (computing)|HSAM]]),
* [[Partitioned Hierarchical Direct Access Method]] ([[PHDAM]]),
* [[Partitioned Hierarchical Indexed Direct Access Method]] ([[PHIDAM]]),
* [[Partitioned Secondary Index]] ([[PSIMDEX]]),
* [[Simple Hierarchical Sequential Access Method]] ([[SHSAM]]), and
* [[Simple Hierarchical Indexed Sequential Access Method]] ([[SHISAM]]).<ref>{{cite web|last=IBM Corporation|title=Types of IMS databases|url=http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/dzichelp/v2r2/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.ims11.doc.dag%2Fims_dbtypes.htm|accessdate=September 4, 2011}}</ref>
This is a different use of the term from the other access methods mentioned in this article.
