Design of Enterprise Systems Theory Architecture and Methods

Design of Enterprise Systems Theory Architecture and Methods

In practice many different people with backgrounds in many different disciplines contribute to the design of an enterprise. Anyone who makes decisions to change the current enterprise to achieve some preferred structure is considered a designer. What is problematic is how to use the knowledge of separate aspects of the enterprise to achieve a globally optimized enterprise. The synthesis of knowledge from many disciplines to design an enterprise defines the field of enterprise engineering. Because enterprise systems are exceedingly complex encompassing many independent domains of study students must first be taught how to think about enterprise systems. Specifically written for advanced and intermediate courses and modules Design of Enterprise Systems: Theory Architecture and Methods takes a system-theoretical perspective of the enterprise. It describes a systematic approach called the enterprise design method to design the enterprise. The design method demonstrates the principles models methods and tools needed to design enterprise systems. The author uses the enterprise system design methodology to organize the chapters to mimic the completion of an actual project. Thus the book details the enterprise engineering process from initial conceptualization of an enterprise to its final design. Pedagogical tools available include: For instructors: PowerPoint® slides for each chapter Project case studies that can be assigned as long-term projects to accompany the text Quiz questions for each chapter Business Process Analyzer software available for download For students: Templates checklists forms and models to support enterprise engineering activities The book fills a need for greater design content in engineering curricula by describing how to design enterprise systems. Inclusion of design is also critical for business students since they must realize the import their decisions may have on the long-term design of the enterprises they work with. The book’s practical focus and project-based approach coupled with the pedagogical tools gives students the knowledge and skills they need to lead enterprise engineering projects. | Design of Enterprise Systems Theory Architecture and Methods

Advanced Risk Analysis in Engineering Enterprise Systems

Advanced Risk Analysis in Engineering Enterprise Systems

Since the emerging discipline of engineering enterprise systems extends traditional systems engineering to develop webs of systems and systems-of-systems the engineering management and management science communities need new approaches for analyzing and managing risk in engineering enterprise systems. Advanced Risk Analysis in Engineering Enterprise Systems presents innovative methods to address these needs. With a focus on engineering management the book explains how to represent model and measure risk in large-scale complex systems that are engineered to function in enterprise-wide environments. Along with an analytical framework and computational model the authors introduce new protocols: the risk co-relationship (RCR) index and the functional dependency network analysis (FDNA) approach. These protocols capture dependency risks and risk co-relationships that may exist in an enterprise. Moving on to extreme and rare event risks the text discusses how uncertainties in system behavior are intensified in highly networked globally connected environments. It also describes how the risk of extreme latencies in delivering time-critical data applications or services can have catastrophic consequences and explains how to avoid these events. With more and more communication transportation and financial systems connected across domains and interfaced with an infinite number of users information repositories applications and services there has never been a greater need for analyzing risk in engineering enterprise systems. This book gives you advanced methods for tackling risk problems at the enterprise level.

Enterprise Security Architecture A Business-Driven Approach

Optimal Enterprise Structures Processes and Mathematics of Knowledge Technology and Human Capital

Optimal Enterprise Structures Processes and Mathematics of Knowledge Technology and Human Capital

In the modern world most gross product is created within Enterprise firms project programs state agencies transnational corporations and their divisions as well as various associations and compositions of the above entities. Enterprises being on the one hand complex and on the other hand widespread systems are the subject matter of cybernetics system theory operations research management sciences and many other fields of knowledge. However the complexity of the system obstructs the development of mathematically rigorous foundations for Enterprise control. Moreover methods of operations research and related sciences which are widely used in practice provide optimization of the constituents of an Enterprise without modeling it as a whole system. But the optimization of parts does not lead to the optimality of the whole and also the absence of top-down and holistic mathematical models of Enterprise contradicts the principle of holism and the system approach. The approach in this book looks first at Enterprise Systems and their essential aspects as complex sociotechnical systems composed of integrated sets of structural and process models (Chapters 1 and 2). A uniform description of all the heterogeneous fields of the modern Enterprise (marketing sales manufacturing HR finance etc. ) is then made and the Enterprise Control Problem is posed as a top-down and holistic mathematical optimization problem (Chapter 3). Original models and methods of contract theory (Chapter 4) technology management (Chapter 5) human behavior and human capital (Chapter 6) and complex activity and resource planning (Chapter 7) are developed to solve the problem. Structural processes and mathematical models constitute an Optimal Enterprise Control Framework (Chapter 8) that provides a practical solution to the Enterprise Control Problem. This book is a resource for postgraduate and doctoral students postdoctoral researchers and professors with research interests in the following fields of science: Fundamental Complex Systems study Complex Systems Engineering Enterprise Systems Engineering Applications of Operations Research Optimization Probability and Stochastic processes to Management Science Economics and Business Theory of the Firm Business and Management – general strategy/leadership organization management operations management and management information systems Theory of Business Processes Business Processes Improvement and Reengineering | Optimal Enterprise Structures Processes and Mathematics of Knowledge Technology and Human Capital

A Practical Approach to WBEM/CIM Management

A Practical Approach to WBEM/CIM Management

System architects and engineers in fields such as storage networking desktop computing electrical power distribution and telecommunications need a common and flexible way of managing heterogeneous devices and services. Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) and its Component Information Model (CIM) provide the architecture language interfaces and common models for the management of storage computing and telecommunication applications. Now there is a practical guide for those who design or implement the emerging WBEM systems or produce a CIM model of a device or service. A Practical Approach to WBEM/CIM Management describes in detail WBEM/CIM architecture and explores the standard models developed by the Distributed Management Task Force (DMTF). It explores the interfaces with which your WBEM/CIM code will have to work and offers examples of applicable models and related code. This book introduces the components of WBEM architecture defines models within CIM and illustrates communication between the WBEM client and server. It also investigates transitioning from SNMP or proprietary systems to WBEM/CIM. Realizing that the field is undergoing a period of massive growth and change the author focuses primarily on the areas which have been standardized and which differ little between implementations. He does however provide coding examples using the openPegasus implementation demonstrating concepts common to other C++ and Java-based implementations.
