  • Abstract
    The Centre for Business Systems Applications in City University, London, works with many small companies. This paper reviews the very different needs such companies have by comparison with larger companies, and the effect this has on the design of databases to meet those needs. The design of software to provide estimates for printing and packaging applications is used to illustrate this difference, and to communicate our findings in a series of business applications
