Abstract

Database management systems have been in general use for more than a decade. However, only recently have advances in technology and reduction in cost made such systems feasible for the small enterprise. Experience with database systems over the years indicates that the definition of a schema, design and implementation of a set of application programs, and maintenance of the system are far from trivial tasks. Consequently, the ability to perform effectively any of the above three tasks has become a highly marketable skill.
