The surge of client/server growth in the last few years has left IS management with a host of new issues to consider. The shift to rapid application development ( RAD ) has allowed project development to compete in record time, but the final product sometimes leaves much to be desired. This seminar discusses three-tier modeling for real life situations, and how existing IS staff can transition into using three-tier tools without losing the advantages of RAD.
