Abstract

The development of customized applications is expensive, time consuming and generally beyond the cost or expertise of someone running a small business. This paper describes some initial work on the development of an application generation system oriented towards producing customized software for microcomputer-based business applications. To narrow the scope of the task, a model of such application software is proposed and discussed. Such a model focuses the requirements of the application generation system and its function. These requirements, as well as initial work on a prototype, are also discussed.
