APM: Running a perl prog from a perl prog?

I want to write some perl programs to do various jobs...

	1) Access a database and return a query
	2) Access a database and insert data
	3) Access a database and delete data
	4) Access two databased (linked) and return a query

I'd like to be able to run these programs from another perl program.

MEANING: A perl/CGI master program that runs the applicable perl/database 
program and get the returned data (if any) for web display.


These aren't subroutines...  They are not threads...  What's this called so 
I can look up how to do it?



Any suggestion on the perl command to run another perl program?
