Business Information Systems

Business Information Systems looks at the role and function of computer based information systems in modern business and industrial organisations. It deals with those aspects that need to be considered in strategic planning for development, and builds on the material of other texts in the series to describe transaction processing and office systems. The book discusses methods of data storage and retrieval and describes the analysis and design approach which leads towards the most efficient and flexible information systems. The text is supported throughout by numerous examples which relate current methods and developments in computing to specific systems.
