I actually think Ada is quite well suited for MIS applications--ironically
enough, perhaps even MORE so than for embedded real time. The reason I
say this is that 1) MIS systems tend to do information modeling, which is
a natural transition to OO techniques [which Ada supports] and 2) there
is at least one excellent success story, STANFINS-R, that proves that
it not is not only possible to do MIS applications in Ada but that it makes
SENSE to do them in Ada.
