Overview
If you are now beginning or have already begun the process of migrating over to open systems, you will want to know exactly how you can measure and pace this move and the practical tools available to help you tame the wild beast of open systems. This practical tool-set will help businesses make the move to open systems more quickly and smoothly. The three models proposed by the book provide an integrated planning approach which spans user requirements and applications, advanced computing, communications and corporate economics. The three models: systems functional model, an economic model with a detailed framework for cost, opportunity and benefit analysis, and an application placement model to determine what type or size of computing platform on which to place a proposed application program combine to form a methodology which will provide the reader with a comprehensive insight into the kind of planning and implementation required for a successful implementation of open systems.This new guide provides both the concepts and techniques for successful management of open systems for business. Comprehensive coverage includes a functional model for matching platforms to application specific requirements; two extended case studies; and hard-to-find reference tables of record structures and rules.
