Enterprise information systems (EIS) have become increasingly popular over the last 15 years 1-2]. EIS integrate and support business processes across functional boundaries in a supply chain environment 3-5]. In recent years, more and more enterprises world-wide have adopted EIS such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) for running their businesses. Previously, information systems such as CAD, CAM, MRPn and CRM were widely used for partial functional integration within a business organization. With global operation, global supply chain, and fierce competition in place, Acre is a need for...

This volume comprises the proceedings of the Eleventh International Conference on the Entity-Relationship Approach held in Karlsruhe, Germany, October 7-9, 1992. It contains the full versions of all the 22 accepted papers selected from in total 64 submissions; in addition, the two invited talks by Scheer and by Tsichritzis and others are represented asfull papers and the two other invited speakers contribute extended abstracts. All the contributions describe original research related to theoretical or practical aspects of the Entity-Relationship Approach, reflecting the trend of recent years...

This volume constitutes the proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Database and Expert Systems Applications, DEXA '95, held in London, UK in September 1995.
The 60 full revised papers presented in the volume were carefully selected from a total of almost 200 submissions and give a comprehensive view over advanced applications of information systems. Among the topics covered are object-oriented databases, advanced database applications, parallel and distributed systems, object-oriented modeling, information retrieval, theoretical aspects, extended relational databases, expert...

Contains papers that were presented at a conference aimed at building an IFIP forum among the different Information Systems Communities of the IFIP TC 8, which deals with the important area of Enterprise Information Systems.

Data warehousing and knowledge discovery has been widely accepted as a key te- nology for enterprises and organizations to improve their abilities in data analysis, decision support, and the automatic extraction of knowledge from data. With the exponentially growing amount of information to be included in the decision-making process, the data to be considered become more and more complex in both structure and semantics. New developments such as cloud computing add to the challenges with massive scaling, a new computing infrastructure, and new types of data. Consequently, the process of...

Constitutes the proceedings of the Third International Conference on Data Management in Grid and Peer-to-Peer Systems, that held in Bilbao, Spain, in September 2010.

Use and development of database and expert systems can be found in all fields of computer science. The aim of this book is to present a large spectrum of already implemented or just being developed database and expert systems. Contributions cover new requirements, concepts for implementations (e.g. languages, models, storage structures), management of meta data, system architectures, and experiences gained by using traditional databases in as many areas of applications as possibble (at least in the fields listed). The aim of the book is to inspire a fruitful dialogue between developement in...

Als erste Monographie im deutschsprachigen Raum vermittelt das vorliegende Buch eine umfassende Darstellung der notwendigen Kenntnisse fur eine menschengerechte Gestaltung von EDV-Systemen im Buro. Es wird ein neues Vorgehensmodell zur ergonomischen Gestaltung vorgestellt, das den gesamten Lebenszyklus eines Burosystems abdeckt. In ubersichtlicher Weise werden die zu beachtenden Kriterien samt praktischen Beispielen dargestellt und den einzelnen Phasen des Vorgehensmodells zugeordnet. Fur die Umsetzung werden eine Vielzahl von fur den Praktiker sehr hilfreichen Methoden und Werkzeugen...

The Database and Expert Systems Application -DEXA - conferences are mainly oriented to establish a state-of-the art forum on Database and Expert System applications. But Practice without Theory has no sense, as Leonardo said five centuries ago. In this Conference we try a comprornise between these two complementary aspects. A total of 5 sessions are application-oriented, ranging from classical applications to more unusual ones in Software Engineering. Recent research aspects in Databases, such as activity, deductivity and/or Object Orientation are also present in DEXA 92, as weIl as the...
