Zara Case Situation
You are a member of a Zara employee taskforce. The taskforce has been asked to make recommendations on selecting a new point-of-sale device for all of their retail locations. The team has narrowed the choices down to three products. The first product allows for access to the internet for both store use and sending sales transactions reporting, email, customer data collection and lookup, and full inventory functions (in-stock, location, reduction information). The second product has the same functions as the first but with limited in-store only inventory functions (search only). The third product has no inventory functions and access to the internet is limited to sales reporting to corporate. Based on your knowledge of Zara’s business and process management, explain which POS product you would recommend. Support your opinion with the case information.
Step 4: How would evaluate the options? What criteria would you use? How do the triangle sides impact the options?
Step 5: What decisions and actions would you recommend to the case company? What data supports your conclusions? Why should the case company take your advice?

to acheive it\'s goals; IT industry is also a bussiness which consists of gathering the information,
planning the activities and promorting their software this business process is used for this IT
industry.
2) The systems serve the different management groups in a business at various levels At the
operational level, tasks, resources, and goals are predefined and highly structured. Management
Information system serve managers primarily interested in weekly, monthly, and yearly results,
although some MIS enable managers to drill down to see daily or hourly data if required.
Decision support system focus on problems that are unique and rapidly changing; procedures for
arriving at a solution may not be fully predefined. Execute support system are designed to
incorporate data about external events, such as new tax laws or competitors, but they also draw
summarized information from internal MIS and DSS.
3) An organisation will open up with good environment and looks for the profits. The successful
organization focuses on the efficient execution of its processes, customer service, and speed to

Report on strategic rules of Information System for changing the bases of com...Md. Khukan Miah
Achieving advantages requires broad IS management and user dialogue plus imagination. The process is complicated by the fact that many IS products are strategic though the potential benefits are very subjective and not easily verified. Often a strict ROI focus by senior management may turn attention toward narrow, well-defined targets as opposed to broader strategic opportunities that are harder to analyze.

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.
First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User Endpoints

1. Use of information for competitive advantage
Information and its use has become the competitive advantage
of today’s world. The efficiency with which a firm manages
its information determines its success in the marketplace.
This enormous power of information unleashed in today’s
world has brought down reaction times for decision-making of
managers, made customers more aware, competitors more
efficient and regulators more alert
Computerization is required to make the information supplied
to be timely and accurate, which are critical factors for
success in these competitive times.
2. Michael Porter's competitive forces model describes
five competitive forces that shape the fate of the
firm.
1.Traditional competitors: Existing firms that share a firm's
market space
2.New market entrants:
3.Substitute products and services: These are substitutes that
your customers might use if your prices become too high.
4. Customers: The power of customers grows if they can easily
switch to a competitor's products and services,
5. Suppliers: The more different suppliers a firm has, the
greater control it can exercise over suppliers in terms of price,
quality, and delivery schedules.
3. There are four generic strategies used to manage competitive
forces, each of which often is enabled by using information
technology and systems:
1.Low-cost leadership: Use information systems to achieve the lowest
operational costs and the lowest prices. For example, a supply chain management
system
2.Product differentiation: Use information systems to enable new products and
services, or greatly change the customer convenience in using your existing
products and services.
3.Focus on market niche: Use information systems to enable a specific market
focus and serve this narrow target market better than competitors.
4.Strengthen customer and supplier intimacy: Use information systems to
tighten linkages with suppliers and develop intimacy with customers.
4. MIS as an Instrument for Organizational Change
The MIS plays the role of information generation,
communication, problem identification and helps in the
process of decision making.
The MIS, therefore, plays a vital role in the management,
administration and operations of an organization.
External Change
1.MIS has made world smaller
2.Worldwide reorganization environment and attempt to
control the calamity.
3.Change in the work lifestyle for better result
4.Creating Knowledge is an asset
5. Internal Change
1.MIS will change the Business Process
2.MIS will change the old standards and set new standards
3.MIS key for Continuous improvement Process
4.MIS will reduce operation cost.
5.MIS focus on “Shared information”.
6.MIS will accelerate restructure work flow
7.MIS will bring change in Authority and power by merit
and not by age or number of years of experience.
8.MIS brings cultural change.
9.MIS measures the results and performance.
10.MIS brings Continuous addition to Organizational
knowledge base.
6. Information Technology Characteristics and
emerging trends,
•Diffusion of e-governance on a large scale.
•The development of Information Technology has made education system
simpler, easier, and widespread. Now, people of remote areas can also use
technology for their children’s education and also avail the benefits of
adult education.
•Development of remote areas.
•Participation of public in governance and policy making.
•The judiciary and other administrative services can also take the help of

rather the society as a whole.
•Fast economic development.
7. Digital proficiency
-improve operations and increase revenue.
-An IT organization with digital proficiency can devote more attention to
what organizations really care about – leveraging information for gaining
business insight and putting technology to business advantage.
- A digital IT organization with high digital proficiency plays a crucial role
in building a high-responsive, high-intelligent and high-mature digital
business by interpreting business issues into technology-enabled solutions
and leveraging necessary resources to solve well-defined business
problems effectively.
-IT needs to take the wise steps in doing consolidation, modernization,
automation, integration and optimization for improving its overall digital
maturity.
-IT management should be in the continuous tuning mode to streamline
processes and tighten coordination and collaboration with the business
partners.
8. Simplexity
Simplexity is an emerging theory that proposes a possible complementary
relationship between complexity and simplicity. – Digital Era
Innovativeness
To move up digital maturity, businesses are looking for IT to add new innovative
methods for management of complexity, improving quality and driving digital
transformation.
The available digital technologies just make innovation easier to do now than in
the past – less costly and more easily accessible.
Innovation can be categorized as
-breakthrough innovation (push something to the new level),
-sustainable innovation (better version of products or services),
-efficiency innovation (process improvement),
-“soft innovations” (communication or culture innovation).
-IT can drive all sort of innovation to improve business revenue growth and lift
organizational maturity.
9. IT enabled services.
ITES, Information Technology Enabled Service, is defined as
outsourcing of processes that can be enabled with information
technology and covers diverse areas like finance, HR,
administration, health care, telecommunication, manufacturing
etc.
Armed with technology and manpower, these services are
provided from e-enabled locations.
This radically reduces costs and improve service standards. In
short, this Internet service provider aims in providing B2B e-
commerce solutions.
10. Objectives of ITES
ITES was formerly known as IndoNet.
•» Enabling business strategy
•» Achieving an organization's business goals
Some of the services offered include :
•• Document Processing
•• Data Entry and Processing
•• Data Warehousing
•• IT Help Desk Services
•• Application Development
•• Enterprise Resource Planning
•• Telecommunication Services
11. BENEFITS:
1. Increases company’s flexibility: Through Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) which is a part
of ITeS the companies will increase their flexibility.
ITeS contributes to a company’s flexibility is that a company focuses on its core competencies.
ITeS increases organizational flexibility is by increasing the speed of business processes. Using
techniques such as linear programming we can decrease the production time and inventory
levels, which can increase effectiveness and controls or decreases cost.
Supply chain management (SCM) with the effective use of chain partners and business process
outsourcing increases the speed of several business processes.
THREATS:
Risk is the major threat with ITeS. Outsourcing an Information system, can cause security risks both
from part of communication and from privacy.
12. Transaction Processing System: Characteristics and its importance
Transaction processing systems (TPS) are the basic business systems that
serve the operational level of the organization.
A transaction processing system is a computerized system that performs
and records the daily routine transactions necessary to conduct business.
Examples are sales order entry, hotel reservation systems, payroll,
employee record keeping, and shipping.
TPS collect, store, modify and retrieve the transactions
-Transaction is an event that generates or modifies data to be stored in an
information system
-Examples: Point of Sale, credit card payments,
-Designed in conjunction with the organisation's procedures
-Main processes are collecting and storing
13. Characteristics of transaction processing systems
The four important characteristics include
•Rapid response
Turnaround time from transaction input to the production output must be a few
seconds or less
•Reliability
-Failure rates must be low
-If failure occurs, recovery must be quick and accurate
•Inflexibility
-Flexibility results in too many opportunities for non standard operations,
resulting in problems due to different transaction data
•Controlled processing
-Must support an organisation's operations
14. Two types, Batch and real time
Batch transaction processing
-Collects the transaction data as a group and processes it later
-Has a time delay(hours, days)
-low processing costs per transaction
--Disadvantages
•Processing must wait until a set time
•Errors cannot be corrected during processing
Real-time transaction processing
-immediate processing of data
-Instant confirmation of a transaction but does require access to an online
database
-large number of users simultaneously perform transactions(requests are also
simultaneous)
--Disadvantages
Expensive
15. Components of a transaction processing systems
•Users
•Participants
•People
Example : When you withdraw money from an ATM, you are a participant of a
TPS
