SUBJECT CODE & NAME - MB0047- MANAGEMENT
INFORMATION SYSTEM
1. Professor A.
Van Cauwenbergh of
Antwerp University, in
a paper presented
at the Tenth Anniversary Conference
of the European
Institute for Advanced
Studies in Management, presented four revisions to
traditional Management Theory. In summary, the revisions are:
(1) The initiative for the renewal
and adjustment of the activities of a
firm should come from the different levels
in the management
hierarchy. “Strategy is
not a privilege
of top management”.
(2) Firms, especially
big firms, are
incoherent systems (goals
of the different
component systems are not simply
subdivisions of an overall goal; there are individual, conflicting goals as
well).
Some of these
differences are manifestations of
organizational initiative and
vitality. Using information systems
and central planning
and rule-making to
suppress all differences
is destructive to organizations.
(3) The most vital “fluid” of an enterprise is the aggregate of its entrepreneurial
values. The most fundamental and
motivation and control
come through these
shared values relative
to work, quality, efficiency, etc. Management often neglects these
values and assumes that the collection and dissemination of information will
provide sufficient motivation and control.
(4) Enterprises are
open systems; their
structure and operating
processes are determined
by their environment. This
means organizations must
be designed to
continually adjust to the
environment.
a. If these revisions are correct, how is planning to be organized?
b. How should the information system support the planning organization?
A. (a)
The aspect
of architecture, the
hardware specification, the
details of software to
be developed, the
language, the nature
of users and
the numbers of users spread over different location, the network
topology are vital inputs that go into the planning the development of an MIS.

2. Information Technology and
Computers have brought information age. The spread of Internet & relative
ease of access made Information Breach easier. Our future is not secure, if our
information is not secure. Information Resources need to be guarded, protected
and controlled. List the precautionary measures to be considered to prevent
cybercrime?
The followings are the
precautionary and preventive measures to be taken into consideration:
·
Use passwords to prevent unauthorised use of the
business information systems. Also enforce the users to adopt a password which
is of certain length, contains special characters, uppercase and lowercase
letters by implementing a security. Use a firewall to prevent the employees from
accessing risky sites and downloading certain types of files.
3 a. While implementing MIS in any organization
change can occur in number of ways. List and explain the steps in the process
as suggested by Lewin’s model.
b. Compare between prototype
approach and Life Cycle approach
A a. Explaining the 3 steps of implementing the process
suggested by Lewin’s model
The Lewin's model suggests three steps in this process.
1. The
first step is
to communicate openly
within the organisation.
This makes everyone in the
organisation look forward to the new
system or the changes with a sense of pride
2. The
second step is
to outline a
list of activities
specifying when they begin and reach the desired level of
stability.

4. There is an information
explosion in today’s society. There are lot of advantages of DBMS like proper
maintenance of the data and maintaining security. Explain the process of data
transition using diagram and an example of your own.
A process-data diagram is a diagram that describes
processes and data that act as output of these processes. On the left side the
meta-process model can be viewed and on the right side the meta concept model
can be viewed.
A process-data diagram can
be seen as combination of an business process model and data model.
5. Write short note on
a. World wide web
b. Voice over IP
c. Intranet
d. Extranet
A a. World Wide Web
The World Wide Web is a huge set of interlinked documents,
images and other resources, linked by hyperlinks and URLs. These hyperlinks and
URLs allow the Web servers and other
machines that store originals and cached copies
of these resources
to deliver them
as required using
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). HTTP is only one of the communication
6. Artificial intelligent system
functions like a human being and helps a manager in taking quick decisions.
Explain the different applications AI using diagram.
A a.
Diagram 2
b. Applications of cognitive science 2
c. Applications of robotics 2
d. Applications of natural interface 2
e. Explaining each type with an example 2
Answer: -
