Nishant Haran presented on business information systems to Prof. Butchi Babu. Business information systems represent the controls and processes that businesses use to analyze information and effectively manage operations, including accounting systems. They facilitate better decision-making, allow management to review practices and formulate new strategies, and help control people and processes to achieve goals. Information systems standardize operating procedures, enable uniform work and clear accountability, and aid intelligent decision-making by analyzing options in terms of costs, time, and resources. Electronic and mobile commerce applications include e-tail, cyber mail, and banking, among others. Advantages include reduced costs and improved customer service, while threats include security issues, fraud, and lack of internet access. Def

Management Information System one or two chapter By Amjad Ali Depar MBA StudentAG RD
This document provides an overview of key concepts related to information systems. It defines an information system as an organized combination of people, hardware, software, data, networks and procedures that stores, retrieves, transforms and disseminates information in an organization. The document also discusses the types of information systems, including operations support systems that efficiently process transactions, and management support systems that provide information to support managerial decision making.
The document discusses key topics in IT strategy and managing information systems in organizations. It addresses whether technology or the management of technology is more important, noting that competitive advantage is derived from how technology is used rather than technology alone. It also discusses how IT plays a big role in business innovation by enabling strategic applications and supporting strategic change. Other topics covered include competitive intelligence and how technology affects competition through changing industry structure, giving competitive advantages, and spawning new businesses. The document also notes major issues to consider when implementing information systems, such as justification, risks/failures, finding the appropriate system, and managerial challenges. It concludes with ways for businesses to sustain an information system advantage.
Better ITIL Implementations with Business Service Management discusses how organizations can improve their ITIL implementations by leveraging concepts from Business Service Management (BSM). BSM focuses on aligning IT and business goals by understanding how IT performance impacts business processes. While ITIL is well-defined, BSM is less clear but aims to provide visibility of IT's impact on the business, increase customer satisfaction, and prioritize IT activities based on business needs. Adopting BSM concepts and tools can provide benefits to ITIL implementations like improved service quality, more mature processes, reduced costs, and greater responsiveness. BSM should be viewed as complementary to ITIL rather than competing.

The role of information systems by Emanuel BaisireEmanuel Baisire
Firms are constantly investing in information technology infrastructure to maintain a competitive edge and survive in a dynamic business environment. The paper focuses on the role played by information system’s components like organization’s strategy, technology and management to improve a firm’s competitive advantage . In this case, Information systems are referred to as those elements capturing data and process it into valuable information for decision-makers.
The motivation for this topic is based on the dominant role played by information systems in shaping new industry structures and increasing the rate of first-mover advantage. It is also important to note that firms investing in new or advanced information technology and ignore organizational changes in other complementary assets are not likely to rip the maximum benefits of information systems. Firms integrating technology with organization changes yield more returns in terms of high productivity and innovation than those without an expanded view of information systems.
The role of information system is also important because it enables organizations to identify and deploy new strategies and cost reduction techniques in a timely manner than competitors (Loudon, 2007). Firms need to integrate their business processes in order to gain a competitive advantage. For instance there is a need for technology within different departments like human resource, sales and marketing, production and research to complement each other to yield a competitive advantage.

This document provides an overview of chapter 1 from the textbook "Management Information Systems" by Prof. Y. Peter Chiu. The chapter discusses four key trends that have increased the importance of information systems: globalization, transformation of industrial economies, transformation of business enterprises, and the emergence of digital firms. It also examines the technical and behavioral approaches to information systems and explores how information systems are changing organizations through new options like the digital firm and collaborative enterprise models.
The document defines a system as an orderly grouping of interdependent components linked together according to a plan to achieve a specific objective. It provides examples of computer systems, hotel systems, and business systems. It describes the key elements of a system as including organization, interaction, and interdependence between components, as well as integration and a central objective. Systems have structure and order to help achieve their goals, and components function interdependently, like departments in a business. A system's parts depend on one another, with the output of one subsystem becoming the required input of another to achieve the overall goal of the system.

Most businesses have three levels of management, with one or more layers of managers in each level.
The executive management includes top tier management focused on long-term strategic business decisions such as how to compete, price versus quality, and what countries to do business in.
Middle or tactical management is focused on running the organization to meet the strategic goals, and typically has a management timeframe of 3 to 12 months. Typical decisions might include where additional stores in existing markets should be opened.
Operational employees and management perform the day-to-day work of the organization, making decisions on a day-by-day basis.
A shift manager at a Wal-Mart would be Operational Management, while a Store manager at a Wal-Mart would be at the lowest level of Middle or Tactical Management.

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.
IT needs to adopt a new approach to selling ITSM to business executives by listening first and helping the executive see how ITSM provides value to their business objectives. The article outlines four steps: 1) Integrate IT and business executive teams into each other's value chains, 2) Create a new business-focused IT language, 3) Connect how each ITSM process provides business value, and 4) Create marketing plans for how new processes will benefit business units. Adopting this new conceptual selling model allows IT to help executives connect ITSM to terms that are important for business success.
1. The document discusses the Strategic Alignment Model (SAM) framework for aligning business and IT strategies.
2. The SAM model represents the dynamic alignment between business strategic context and IT strategic context through four domains: business strategy, IT strategy, organizational infrastructure/processes, and IT infrastructure/processes.
3. European Global Manufacturing Inc. is using the SAM model to align its business and IT strategies by outsourcing all IT services to EDS and creating governance processes between the two organizations.
Your Challenge
Organizations have to adapt to a growing number of trends, putting increased pressure on IT to move at the same speed as the business.
The business, seeing that IT is slower to react, looks to external solutions to address its challenges and capitalize on opportunities.
IT and business leaders don’t have a clear and unified understanding or definition of an operating model.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
The IT operating model is not a static entity and should evolve according to changing business needs.
However, business needs are diverse, and the IT organization must recognize that the business includes groups that consume technology in different patterns. The IT operating model needs to support and enable multiple groups, while continuously adapting to changing business conditions.
Impact and Result
Determine how each technology consumer group interacts with IT. Use consumer experience maps to determine what kind of services consumer groups use and if there are opportunities to improve the delivery of those services.
Identify how changing business conditions will affect the consumption of technology services. Classify your consumers based on business uncertainty and reliance on IT to plan for the future delivery of services.
Optimize the IT operating model. Create a target IT operating model based on the gathered information about technology service consumers. Select different implementations of common operating model elements: governance, sourcing, process, and structure.

This document discusses the evolving role of information systems and technology in organizations from a strategic perspective. It covers several topics including the three-era model of IT development from data processing to strategic systems, different classifications of strategic IT uses, factors for strategic IT success, and the importance of aligning business, IT, and strategy. Finally, it emphasizes understanding the internal and external context for developing an effective IT strategy.
1. Information technology plays an important role in supporting organizational strategy and transformation by aligning business and IT strategies. A strategic information system (SIS) helps organizations achieve long-term goals by providing insights into their current situation and future environment.
2. Applications of IT-supported SIS include supporting innovation, improving responsiveness to market changes, increasing collaboration, enhancing customer insights, introducing new business models, and providing competitive advantages such as innovative applications, competitive weapons, cost reductions, and new products.
3. Key strategic issues in implementing SIS are the risks associated with large investments in new technologies, planning challenges, and sustaining competitive advantages as systems are duplicated by competitors.
This document discusses connecting IT strategy to business value. It argues that IT should not be seen merely as an infrastructure utility, but rather as a strategic enabler. The value of IT is negotiated between IT providers and business users. For IT to have strategic value, it must be integrated with business needs and processes. The document examines different views on IT strategy and discusses balancing operational effectiveness with strategic positioning of IT.
This document discusses how businesses can use information technology (IT) to gain competitive advantages. It covers several topics:
1) Competitive strategies like cost leadership, differentiation, innovation, growth, and alliances that businesses can use IT to support.
2) How IT can be applied across a business' value chain to reduce costs and improve customer service.
3) The strategic use of technologies like business process reengineering, knowledge management systems, and customer relationship management systems to gain advantages over competitors.

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?

What’s in IT for me?
Working faster and smarter has become a necessity for companies. A firm’s value chain is directly affected by how well it designs and coordinates its business processes. Business processes offer competitive advantages if they enable a firm to lower operating costs, differentiate, or compete in a niche market. They can also be huge burdens if they are outdated, which impedes operations, efficiency, and effectiveness. Thus, the ability of management information systems to improve business processes is a key advantage.
The goal of Chapter 2 is to provide an overview of specific MIS tools managers can use to support the strategies discussed in Chapter 1. After reading this chapter, you, the business student, should have detailed knowledge of the types of information systems that exist to support decision making and business .
This document discusses how the role of information systems has evolved over four eras from operational support to ubiquitous computing. It describes each era, including Era I from the 1950s-1970s where IS provided operational support through a single department, Era II from the late 1970s where IS began supporting management and knowledge work through personal computers, Era III from the mid-1980s where IS strategically supported business units and line-of-business, and Era IV of ubiquitous computing using networks and client/server architecture for electronic organization integration. The document also covers strategic information systems, competitive strategies, analyzing competitive forces and a company's value chain to identify how IS can provide competitive advantage.

"Shaping agility through digital options: Reconceptualizing the role of infor...Riri Kusumarani
"Shaping agility through digital options: Reconceptualizing the role of information technology in contemporary firms." Sambamurthy, Vallabh, Anandhi Bharadwaj, and Varun Grover. MIS quarterly (2003): 237-263.
Never before has Information Technology (IT) played a more important role in bringing competitive advantage to an organization. Yet IT has never before been more complex. In the past, the mainframe paradigm provided turnkey solutions to complex business problems. The functionality was provided by
the software vendor, which may have also been the hardware vendor. The business processes were adapted to this functionality. As these processes evolved it was discovered that the systems were not sufficiently flexible or adaptable to meet the new demands of the business. The introduction of distributed processing provided a means to deal with the inflexibility and monolithic nature of these legacy
applications.
This document summarizes a case study presentation on how a firm's competitive environment and digital strategic posture influence digital business strategy. It discusses how digital technologies are reshaping traditional business strategies and structures. The summary defines digital business strategy as using digital resources to create value beyond traditional views of IT. It examines how a firm's industry turbulence, concentration, and growth impact its digital investments and outsourcing. The presentation concludes that a firm's digital strategic posture has convergent effects on general IT investment but divergent effects on outsourcing, and that understanding variations in a competitive environment can explain differences in digital strategic posture.

Properties of Fluids, Fluid Statics, Pressure MeasurementIndrajeet sahu
Properties of Fluids: Density, viscosity, surface tension, compressibility, and specific gravity define fluid behavior.
Fluid Statics: Studies pressure, hydrostatic pressure, buoyancy, and fluid forces on surfaces.
Pressure at a Point: In a static fluid, the pressure at any point is the same in all directions. This is known as Pascal's principle. The pressure increases with depth due to the weight of the fluid above.
Hydrostatic Pressure: The pressure exerted by a fluid at rest due to the force of gravity. It can be calculated using the formula P=ρghP=ρgh, where PP is the pressure, ρρ is the fluid density, gg is the acceleration due to gravity, and hh is the height of the fluid column above the point in question.
Buoyancy: The upward force exerted by a fluid on a submerged or partially submerged object. This force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object, as described by Archimedes' principle. Buoyancy explains why objects float or sink in fluids.
Fluid Pressure on Surfaces: The analysis of pressure forces on surfaces submerged in fluids. This includes calculating the total force and the center of pressure, which is the point where the resultant pressure force acts.
Pressure Measurement: Manometers, barometers, pressure gauges, and differential pressure transducers measure fluid pressure.

Applications of artificial Intelligence in Mechanical Engineering.pdfAtif Razi
Historically, mechanical engineering has relied heavily on human expertise and empirical methods to solve complex problems. With the introduction of computer-aided design (CAD) and finite element analysis (FEA), the field took its first steps towards digitization. These tools allowed engineers to simulate and analyze mechanical systems with greater accuracy and efficiency. However, the sheer volume of data generated by modern engineering systems and the increasing complexity of these systems have necessitated more advanced analytical tools, paving the way for AI.
AI offers the capability to process vast amounts of data, identify patterns, and make predictions with a level of speed and accuracy unattainable by traditional methods. This has profound implications for mechanical engineering, enabling more efficient design processes, predictive maintenance strategies, and optimized manufacturing operations. AI-driven tools can learn from historical data, adapt to new information, and continuously improve their performance, making them invaluable in tackling the multifaceted challenges of modern mechanical engineering.

A high-Speed Communication System is based on the Design of a Bi-NoC Router, ...DharmaBanothu
The Network on Chip (NoC) has emerged as an effective
solution for intercommunication infrastructure within System on
Chip (SoC) designs, overcoming the limitations of traditional
methods that face significant bottlenecks. However, the complexity
of NoC design presents numerous challenges related to
performance metrics such as scalability, latency, power
consumption, and signal integrity. This project addresses the
issues within the router's memory unit and proposes an enhanced
memory structure. To achieve efficient data transfer, FIFO buffers
are implemented in distributed RAM and virtual channels for
FPGA-based NoC. The project introduces advanced FIFO-based
memory units within the NoC router, assessing their performance
in a Bi-directional NoC (Bi-NoC) configuration. The primary
objective is to reduce the router's workload while enhancing the
FIFO internal structure. To further improve data transfer speed,
a Bi-NoC with a self-configurable intercommunication channel is
suggested. Simulation and synthesis results demonstrate
guaranteed throughput, predictable latency, and equitable
network access, showing significant improvement over previous
designs

4. Definition
Competitive advantage is defined as the strategic
advantage one business entity has over its rival entities
within its competitive industry.
Achieving Competitive Advantage strengthens and
positions a business better within the business
environment.
When a firm sustains profits that exceed the average for
its industry, the firm is said to possess a competitive
advantage over its rivals. The goal of much of business
strategy is to achieve a sustainable competitive
advantage.
5. Type
Michael Porter identified two basic types
of competitive advantage:
cost advantage : when the firm is able to
deliver the same benefits as competitors but
at a lower cost
differentiation advantage :deliver benefits that
exceed those of competing products
6. a competitive advantage enables the firm
to create superior value for its customers
and superior profits for itself.
Cost and differentiation advantages are
known as positional advantages since
they describe the firm's position in the
industry as a leader in either cost or
differentiation.
8. Definition
Strategic systems are information systems that
are developed in response to corporate
business initiative.
They are intended to give competitive advantage
to the organization.
They may deliver a product or service that is at a
lower cost, that is differentiated, that focuses on
a particular market segment, or is innovative.
9. Strategic information systems are those
computer systems that implement business
strategies
They are those systems where information
services resources are applied to strategic
business opportunities in such a way that the
computer systems have an impact on the
organization’s products and business
operations.
10. Strategic information systems are always
systems that are developed in response to
corporate business initiative.
The ideas in several well-known cases came
from information Services people, but they were
directed at specific corporate business thrusts.
In other cases, the ideas came from business
operational people, and Information Services
supplied the technological capabilities to realize
profitable results.
11. Differences between SIS and
Common IS
Most information systems are looked on as
support activities to the business.
They mechanize operations for better efficiency,
control, and effectiveness, but they do not, in
themselves, increase corporate profitability.
They are simply used to provide management
with sufficient dependable information to keep
the business running smoothly, and they are
used for analysis to plan new directions.
12. Strategic information systems, on the other
hand, become an integral and necessary part of
the business, and directly influence market
share, earnings, and all other aspects of
marketplace profitability.
hey may even bring in new products, new
markets, and new ways of doing business.
They directly affect the competitive stance of the
organization, giving it an advantage against the
competitors.
