ABSTRACT The primary purpose of this thesis is to aid the database manage- ment system (DBMS) evaluation process by providing an example in a real-life setting - the design and implementation of a DBMS-based hospital information system. A guideline is presented in whose context the capabilities of a specific package, Generalized Information Management (GIM-II), are examined in detail. These capabilities are then evaluated in light of the requirements of a hospital information system. The design and implementation of a medical database and such hospital applications as patient scheduling and pharmacy are investigated. It is concluded that the GIM-II system can support a hospital information system. Thesis Supervisor: Stuart E. Madnick Title: Associate Professor of Management ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my gratitude to Professor Stuart Madnick for his guidance and extreme patience in supervising this thesis. I am indebted to my parents for their continued support, both financial and spiritual, throughout my academic years.
