Abstract

Models are widely used in theoretical discourses on real-world subjects, often forming the basis on which entire chapters and even books are written. This is also true in the study of management information systems in general and computer-based information systems (CBISs) in particular. Considering that there is a particularly intensive use of modeling in this field, it is perhaps surprising that authors create and employ vastly different models to explain the CBIS. This paper is an effort to create a new, integrated model of the CBIS. First, all (or as many as possible) of the systems, concepts, and technologies that are usually associated with CBISs are reclassified using its most distinctive characteristic(s). This leads to the discovery that there are no less than six criteria used to identify them and, what is more, they are often not mutually exclusive. These criteria are: (1) management level support, (2) type of information processing performed, (3) functional unit supported, (4) computer technology used, (5) the presence of functional integration, if any, and (6) whether or not the system extends beyond the organization. Finally, a new model is created based on these findings, and all the systems, concepts and technologies analyzed are allocated their proper place within it.

Abstract

While most companies are content to develop and implement computer-based information systems to improve their operational and managerial effectiveness, a few also rely on innovative systems to give them an edge over the competition. An information system that is specifically designed with the aim to create a competitive advantage for its firm is called a strategic information system.To build a strategic information system, one should have a good understanding as to what factors contribute towards competitive advantage. It is here that the analyses by Michael E. Porter on this subject are particularly invaluable. Furthermore, one should also realize what the modern computer excels at fast processing time, fast data retrieval, fast communications, and reliability.There are also risks inherent to strategic information systems. These include the large capital outlay involved, as well as the reality that any competitive advantage thus achieved is not sustainable for long.

Abstract

Data normalization is a technique used to create databases that are able to store data in an effective and efficient manner. This, in turn, will ensure the integrity of the data contained within those databases. The process of normalizing a database from completely unnormalized to its ultimate form is a gradual one, and in practical terms this is commonly thought of as necessitating at least four steps, each of which is marked with a specific "normalized form", usually annotated as 1NF, 2NF, 3NF, and 4NF. This paper compares two different approaches to achieve 4NF. The first method comprises the four steps usually described in books and articles, while the second approach needs only two-and-a-half of those steps to attain 4NF.

Abstract

Universities  nowadays are under  increasing pressure  to produce graduates who are not only knowledgeable but who also have valuable work experience as well as excellent  interpersonal  skills. The  last  two are often lacking  in the university  graduates of today, which will be to their detriment when-they enter the workforce  looking  for good, well-paid  jobs with long- range prospects. This paper introduces an idea to include a continuous,  lT-enhanced, “work experience" simulation  in the curriculum,  in which a student will be subjected to all the experiences  an actual employee  will encounter  in an actual firm, at various operational  and management  levels.

Abstract

The balanced scorecard (BSC) is a method created bt Kaplan and Norton to fulfill the needs of modern corporations for performance evaluation. As it turns out, BSC is not appropiate for evaluation, but also an effective tool for the creation of corporate strategy as well as communicating it throughout the company. On the other hand, information resources nowadays are admitted to be a strategic value to the firm, and should be optimally managed. This paper describes how BSC may be applied to the effort of managing the firm's information systems, including its perfomance measurement

Abstract

Computer-supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) is a concept that emphasizes the collaborative aspect in information technology applications. A great many CSCW systems have been developed so that Schill, for example, cites no less than ten different classification foundations. The many choices available can be very confusing for the management of an organization that wishes to implement CSCW.One of the features that must be set up by CSCW software producers is collaboration awareness, which is the ability of the software to "know" that it is being used by several people at the same time. Research shows that there have been efforts to create collaboration awareness not only of the software, but also of the user. One of these efforts is to display the social activity awareness in a CSCW session.

Abstract

Governance of the firm's information technology (tr Governance) has become more and more important to the succesiiut management of corporations around the world. To hchieve tr Governaice, each corporation may de.velo.p its own unique approach, or otherwise it may utilize a number of guidelines that have been developed, such as the s.arbanes-oxley Act (sox), committee of sponsoring organizations of the Treadway commission Framework (coso), and-con{rol objectives for lnformation Technology (coBtr). This paper dr.scusies tr Governance as a concept, explains some of the guidelines mentioned above that can be used to achieve it, attempts a categorization of those guidelines, and ends with an example. tn this example the framework used is coBlr and the lr governance aspect evaluated is the business continuity plan.

Abstract

The conceptual framework for financial accounting and reporting was developed to achieve standardization in financial accountant practices. This framework consists of three revers, which are (1) objectives of financial reporting, (2) elements of financial statements and quality characteristics of accounting information, and (3) recognition and measurement concepts. In Indonesia, the main work of a public accountant is to do financial audits on business entities, followed by attestation by the public accountant to endorse (or not) the business entities' statements. Analyses done both upon the conceptual framework and the work of a public accountant shows  that the framework  is helpful to the public accountant's work, because (l) the  financial accounting standards used by the public accountant were created based on the conceptual  framework,  and (2) in the case that no standards  or rules have been set,  then  the conceptual  framework  provides guidance  to the public accountant. An example is provided to enhance understanding.

Abstract

Whenever lecturers assign their students to write scientific papers they must be alert to the plagiarism problem. While a lot has been written about plagiarism, particularly by university policymakers, none address the problem when a student paraphrases and translates one or more passages from sources written in a foreign language. This paper strives to find an answer whether this form of plagiarism or not.  In particular, the research strives to find the answer of the following question: what are the characteristics of plagiarism between languages?. Preliminary and superficial research has shown that there are three main aspects that many sources address; the definition of plagiarism, the types of plagiarism, and the characteristics of plagiarism. This research is then done by studying and compiling from those various sources, and then analyzing each aspect separately. To these was added an analysis on the ethical principles that underlie human behavior, with which the insistence  that plagiarism  is wrong may be validated.  The conclusions of this research  are  that  (a) plagiarism  is most strongly described as a kind of fraud, not a kind of theft; (b) none of the ethical principles evaluated separately  is strong enough to deter plagiarism; (c) there are types of plagiarism  that aren't relevant  in a discussion  on undergraduate  scientific paper writing; and (d) if a translated passage  is translated  back  into its original  language, and the  result  is the same or very similar to the original text,  then plagiarism  has occurred.

Abstract

Databases are an important part of most computer-based information systems. As such, the design of a database has also gained importance because a bad design will compromise data integrity as well as make it inefficient in its use of resources. This paper compares the effect of two data modeling approaches on the design of a database, specifically the Entity-Relationship Model (ER Model) and the Resources-Events -Agents Model (REA Model).  First, the sales/collection cycle of a fictional case study is described.  Then, an ER Model and a REA Model are independently created based on this case study. Finally, one database design is created based on the ER Model, and another database design is created based on the REA Model. The outcome of this experiment shows that both approaches produced similar database designs, but the design processes were different in their complexity, structurally, and completeness. A significant difference is that the ER Model closely followed those aspects that were already laid out by the case study, while the REA Model started out by building a most complete data model, over and above the one described in the case study.
