Cleaning the house I found an old report six of us had to write during a course in building information systems back in college. The course was aimed at students of the ‘soft sciences,’ and was a sort of side-salad thing that wasn’t really relevant to your study at hand, but you could take it to collect some skills with actual relevance to the real world.

Our little group had to build a system for electronically storing patient files (very relevant these days in the Netherlands). <\/p>\n
