Présentation de l'éditeur

A Systems Analysis and Design Text that Taps the Power of Fourth Generation Programming Languages!

Unlike existing program design texts, Systems Design in the Fourth Generation, modifies the use of traditional analysis and design methods to fit in a fourth generation, database–oriented environment. This extremely contemporary approach to systems analysis and design:

  • Brings together the theoretical aspects of contemporary systems design and the hands–on task of writing code
  • Includes a continuous case example that enables students to apply and extend the design and implementation concepts developed in each chapter
  • Features examples and illustrations using dBASE, the widely available, industry standard fourth generation programming environment

With Systems Design in the Fourth Generation, the application of theories and methodologies can be easily seen and implemented. Why not take a few minutes now to acquaint yourself with this groundbreaking text?
