Abstract:
This thesis presents a compete analysis. design and
development of an information management system [ 1MB ]. The
existing manual information system is analyzed, different
solutions with performance and costing are presented and a gantt
chart is prepared for the recommended solution. A computerized
information management system is designed. Design of the
computerized I M S involves design of conceptual model, logical
model, output, input, database, menu structure. process, program,
package. system operation and maintenance. and system security
and control. All these design works are presented in chapter 4 .
Different queries are formulated in the form of menu structures
so that any query can be resolved after entering appropriate data
sought by the system. A database is designed to store data.
Catalogs of various attributes, database files, program files etc
are accommodated in database dictionary. As informat~ion is a
vital factor in any organization. the system is designed with two
levels of password-control. In Bangladesh, there a is random
change of government policies regarding some attributes; so the
system is made independent of government policies. That is, if
the system manager ehter changed data in related data file[s] ,"
the system will serve accurately after the change of government
policies affecting some attributes.
Finally the designed system is developed using the
programming language of dBASE III plus. Various development
works are presented in chapter 5 The performance and
specifications of the developod system is then compared with
that of the designed system.
