APPLICATIONS DEVELOPMENT TOOLS
Steven D. Seilheimer · Information Systems Management · 1992
A serious problem that often occurs during systems development is the inappropriate use of applications development tools. Two primary drawbacks of this misuse are the cost of purchasing unneeded tools and the loss of productivity because of an increase in project completion time. However, the use of appropriate tools (e.g., CASE, DBMS, and project management packages) can result in the efficient and proper development of application systems.
