Abstract
This paper investigates the use of the tools available in a Relational DBMS for the purpose of developing a Group Technology (GT) applicatio n. Specifically, we will concentrate on Structured Query Language (SQL ) but the possibilities of using other features such as Host Language programming and Report Generators will also be examined. The paper dem onstrates the use of Relational DBMS technology as a tool for implemen ting a GT project in an advanced manufacturing environment.
