Mahir Pradana; The search for as much information as possible is needed to achieve maximum results in a management process. Information is also needed as a source of evaluation of the development of an organization, institutions, companies, and departments. Thus, the management process is inseparable from the use of information systems, which is a set of components that are interconnected, collect, process the store, and distribute information to support decision-making and control in an organization. This article examines the theories of management information system to be used as a reference in the domain of management information systems.Keywords: Management Information Systems, Use Of Information Systems, The Value Of Information Technology.

The Hypothetical Equivalents and Inequivalents Method (HEIM) has been developed to support decision making in multiattribute problems where one decision maker is making the decision. In this paper HEIM is modified to support group decision making in multiattribute problems, resulting in the Group Hypothetical Equivalents and Inequivalents Method (G-HEIM). Instead of aggregating attribute weights or overall alternative values from each individual as is common in other group decision methods, G-HEIM operates by aggregating individual preferences. It is recognized that in group decision making, common preferences among group members can rarely be guaranteed, unless individual freedom is greatly limited. G-HEIM instead allows individuals to freely express preferences over a number of hypothetical alternatives and then explores the level of conflict or differences from the aggregated group preferences. The relationship between the level of conflicting preferences and the usability of the resulting decision is also directly studied using the G-HEIM. An automotive selection example is used to illustrate the approach.

The Relationship

El método contable de cargo y descargo, un procedimiento de naturaleza más jurídica que contable, se empleaba cuando la actividad económica de la organización era confiada a un agente, circunstancia que facilita su análisis desde la Teoría de la Agencia. Tradicionalmente ha estado ligado a la toma de decisiones y al control del agente, sobre lo que existe una amplia bibliografía. Sin embargo, hasta ahora no se ha considerado como un instrumento que anula el conflicto de intereses contrapuestos surgidos en la relación entre principal y agente en una gestión delegada.El análisis de los documentos de cargo y descargo, contenido en estudios previos que tienen como base las fuentes documentales manuscritas y en los que se ha estudiado la relación entre principal y agente desde la perspectiva histórico-contable, ha permitido identificar todos los elementos característicos de la relación de agencia, inferir los intereses de principal y agentes, deducir los incentivos empleados por el principal para alinear el comportamiento de los agentes y concluir que este modo de registro era capaz de neutralizar los desequilibrios de intereses y la información asimétrica entre ambos. This paper examines some accounting and legal aspects of the charge and discharge system and the relationship between it and the Agency Theory. This type of accounting was used when the economic activity was entrusted to an agent; it suggests that the Agency Theory is an excellent framework to analyze the accounts. Traditionally the Charge and Discharge has been linked to the decision making and control of the agent's management, on which there is a wide bibliography, however, until now, it has not been considered as an instrument to cancel conflicts that arisen in the relationship between principal and agent and getting the equilibrium of the relationship between them.We analyzed the documents and that allowed us to show different aspects as identify all characteristic elements of the agency relationship, infer the interests of principal and agents, deduct the incentives used by the principal to align the behavior of the agents and conclude that this mode of registration was able to neutralize the imbalances of interests and the asymmetric information between both.

In this study, an Industry 4.0-oriented electronical goods producer company's smart facility location selection problem is analyzed. The proposed problem is evaluated under environmental, economic, social, and technological criteria. The relationship between criteria are analyzed with interpretive structural modelling (ISM) and Matrice d'Impacts Croisés-Multiplication Appliquée á un Classement (MICMAC) methods. ISM method is used to assess the mutual relation of the criteria and their dependencies, whereas the MICMAC method is used to identify the importance of criteria based on their driving and dependence power. It is expected the methods used in this study which are related to evaluation of the criteria affecting the selection of the plant for a smart factory and the results of it will be useful for decision-makers and practitioners to categorize and differentiate the criteria. This study will be one of the first spearheading research to evaluate the criteria for establishing a smart factory.

Support Decision Making

The complexity of decision making in software process development and the need for highly competitive organizations require new supporting tools to coordinate and optimize the information flow among decision levels. Decision levels are related to strategic planning, tactical process management, and operational activities development and control. This chapter presents the theory for developing a framework that integrates the different decision levels in software development companies in order to reach their business objectives. Furthermore, the proposed framework coordinates the information exchange among the different modeling paradigms/conventions currently used.

The Relationship

Despite decades of feminist efforts to educate the community about, and improve responses to, domestic violence, public attitudes towards domestic violence continue to misunderstand women’s experiences of violence. Underlying such responses is the stock standard question, ‘Why doesn’t she leave?’ This question points to a lack of understanding about the impacts and threat of violence from an abusive partner on women’s decisions to leave the relationship. Moreover, it places sole responsibility for ending the relationship squarely upon women, assuming women are presented with numerous opportunities to leave a violent relationship and erroneously assumes the violence will cease once they do leave. This study explores women’s experiences of separating from an abusive, male partner through women’s narratives (n = 12) in Victoria, Australia. Findings reveal that fear was a complex influencing factor impacting upon women’s decision-making throughout the leaving process. The findings show that women seek to exercise agency within the context of their abusers’ coercively controlling tactics by strategically attempting to manage the constraints placed on their decision-making and partner’s repeated attempts to reassert dominance and control.

System Effectiveness

A technique has been developed to'provide measurement of tactical decision-making performance. A comprehensibe mathematical model of the system provides an estimate of the system's effectiveness with regard to accomplishing specific interim and ultimate training and tactical objectives. The effectiveness estimate is based on particular system and situation parameters. The relationship between the operator/trainee's behavior and changes in the system parameters enables the system effectiveness values to provide a relative measure of human performance.

The Relationship

This article takes an approach to explaining the behavioral manifestations of the decision making in US companies’ offer of health insurance that is grounded not only on their cost minimizing behavior, but also in a humanness dimension based on the African concept of Ubuntu. In this way, we define an Ubuntu based Random Utility modeling framework, describing the choice process as a tripartite decision making, and implemented using a nationally representative random sample of 1,061 American companies from the Dunn and Bradstreet Business data, supplied by Survey Sampling International to the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. The results from the three sequentially implemented specifications showed that the relationship between management culture and health plan offering strategy is dependent on other relevant co-variates, which when left out, leads to the problem of omitted variables bias. However, when all variables are included but assumed to enter the relationship exogenously, this results in management culture not having any statistically significant effect on companies' decisions about scope of health plan offering. When the exogeneity assumption is relaxed through a recursively Bivariate Probit model, the system of two equations produces a highly significant management culture effect. In fact, in this later case we see that companies with groups and formal committee management culture are 1.58 times less likely to choose a multiple plan strategy over a single plan strategy, hence failing to show the more wholesome plan offering that would theoretically prevail under Ubuntu style management.
