 abstract={In recent years management information systems based upon an extensive use of computers has been applied to an ever expending range to financial management of firms, insurance companies and banks, to the management of local governments and of income tax offices. The shift of areas of application has increased dramatically the cost associated with the possible rnalfunction or breakdown of the system. In the design of the information systems one must try to fincl ways of 1e.:lucing the damage due to same fault in the system. A second component which effcts the overall cost of the management information system is its structure i.e. the allocation of the memory and of the arithmetical capabilities among the various levels arranged in a hierarchical order versus a centralized solution. The aim of this paper is to formalise an optimization problem which for a given problem and the relative costs associated to a fault in the system will enable the optima! structure of a multi-level management information system to be found . From the numerical point of view it is rather easy for each application to find its optima) solution, after some analytical expression for the efficiency function has been derived.},
