Development of Executive Information Systems

Abstract

Executive Information Systems have been one of the key information management objectives for many organizations for over a decade. As personal computer hardware and software capabilities have grown, the potential for a useful and meaningful system has increased dramatically. Specifically, as the Microsoft Windows environment has become a de facto standard for personal computer development environments, many different software tools and methods have become available. This report investigates a representative set of Microsoft Windows-based software products to determine their applicability to Executive Information Systems development projects. A sample application is developed using each product, and the results are tabulated. Client-server systems, EIS, Executive information systems, Relational database management systems, Software development.
