| Abstract | This study is concerned with the development and cost analysis of an information System developed using an fourth generation tool.
The study begins with the analysis of a medium size
production company - Bang Pa-in Paper Mill Company - who se main
business is to produce paper . The company does not have any
computerized system to assist in the production or
administration. The analysis indicates tt1at a suitable area for
computerization is in material flow '. Therefore , a material
-Flow data base model is developed a nd a fourth generation tool is
used in developing the prototype of t h e system. The would -be cost
of the system if developed using the traditional approach is
calculated a nd compared with the cost of developing the system by
the fourth generation tool. It is found that the fourth
generation tool requires only 20 percent of the total time for
coding and testing the system using the tradition method . |
