Description
Information is unquestionably a critical resource in the operation of all organizations, but the wealth of information now available through dramatic new developments in microcomputer and communications technology can create new problems of quality, consistency and security. Managers, Micros and Mainframes sets out to show how, in order to exploit the new technology fully, micros can and, must be integrated with large-scale mainframe information systems. It also shows, however, that innovative management strategies are vital in dealing with the confluence of information and communications technologies. Second in an important new series in information systems which seeks to address and challenge the issues raised by the rapid expansion of new technology, this book is a first attempt to pool the different kinds of expertise required to solve the new problems and exploit the new opportunities offered by end-user computing in a micro-mainframe environment.
Drawing upon contributions by leading researchers and practitioners from the computer science, management science and management information systems fields, this book discusses and analyses the technological and managerial questions faced by many organizations today, and explores the opportunities for tomorrow. The book is suitable as a text for graduate courses in end-user computing but will also be of great value to academics, researchers and practitioners.
