摘要:
Effective diffusion of microcomputers, as distinct from quick adoption, is concerned with a demand for applications. It requires a new approach on the part of information system professionals and administrators. Microcomputers will fail to contribute to the extent they should to Development if not accompanied by appropriate institutional reforms. A Decision Support System (DSS) facilitates the increasingly interdependent nature of the process, by linking information flows and organizational changes with improved decision making. The steps in the evolution of a decision support system for district administrators are discussed as a possible methodology for implementation. The paper concludes with practical guidelines for those initiating the process of end user computing, so that costly mistakes can be avoided.

摘要:
Information Technology has revolutionised Information Management and tremendously increased the value of even the smallest piece of data. All over the world, effects of IT are noticeable in almost all aspects of life. In developing countries, the impact of IT is yet to be felt to any appreciable extent, yet the need is strong and the awareness, in certain sectors, high. The Nigerian situation is critically examined and a possible re‐orientation strategy suggested.
