BUSINESS INFORMATION SYSTEMS MANAGEMENT

COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING

Educational Goals

This module provides the basic concepts of information system management, focusing on practical aspects and real-size case studies. After a general introduction to information systems and their recent evolution, the general issue of information system management is introduced and a detailed task analysis is carried out. Fundamental management rules are provided focusing on hardware/software infrastructure, software applications, and human resources. Specific attention is devoted to integration, network information systems, and corporate portals. Organization of the information system department, budget management, quality of service, internal and external relationships are dealt with as well. An important part of this module deals with knowledge management: the value of intangible assets, tacit versus explicit knowledge, knowledge life cycle, and knowledge quality are among the basic topics. A survey of the main approaches to knowledge management is provided, supported by concrete examples derived from professional practice. Typical knowledge management projects are presented, ranging from knowledge capitalization, to knowledge sharing, maintenance and creation.
