Perspectives on executive information systems
1995
Executives who consider the acquisition of Executive Information Systems (EIS) may encounter several major problems already in their selection and introduction stages. Key issues are the following: Can the EIS's really match our managerial needs and support decision making in our organizational contingencies? How widely in the leadership levels can they be introduced? Are they easy-to-learn, easy-to-use and easily customizable? Do they utilize the newest information technology, e.g. graphics and modern interface technology? Can they work in our computer network? In order to facilitate elegant solutions of the selection problems, we construct an evaluation framework which guides the selectio…
CASE tool support for co-operative work in information systems design
1998
The need for asynchronous co-operative work in design is shown by many surveys of CASE tool use and research on design. MetaEdit+ is a metaCASE environment that allows multiple simultaneous modellers to work together on designing information systems and also information systems design methods. We describe the automatic locking strategies that enable MetaEdit+ to offer a high level of concurrency whilst guaranteeing consistency, enabling effective co-operative work. In particular we describe a new collection data structure that allows high concurrency of updates even at small sizes, fulfilling the need in CASE for largest growth of design information at the start of a project. Finally, we ev…
Semantic infrastructure system with feedback: Application on traffic
2012
The Semantic Web is a powerful approach used by some intelligent applications to manage complex information in many different fields. Nevertheless, there are not standard tools to design and built the applications, therefore each problem need to be analysed separately in order to meet the requirements. In this paper is presented an overview of a system based on a semantic approach with the goal of managing real-time information. The paper studies the application of this system on ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) as an example of a typical real-time information system. The system gathers real information from the users and the environment, making intelligent decisions and delivering real-…
