Use of a software package for diverse user-developed applications
Pages 14 - 38
Abstract
In recent years the technological advances in computer hardware have raced far ahead of the development of software. Computer manufacturers, software firms, government and private industry have all been caught in the dilemma of having the latest in data processing equipment, but lacking the trained personnel to achieve the maximum benefit from this equipment. Low priced mini and micro-computer systems started and are continuing to fuel the rush to decentralization. We see less of the central computer facility and more of small computers being utilized in the offices and laboratories that they serve.
In an attempt to compensate for the lack of computer knowledge in end users, computer manufacturers are developing generalized software packages and coupling these with powerful, low priced equipment so that the customer can immediately begin to derive benefits from computerization.
