Inhaltsangabe

This text takes a business-oriented, demand-side approach to address all aspects of an information system, rather than one specific artefact such as the database or the network. It introduces an overall methodology, explaining a range of techniques for the designer's "toolkit", and is divided into four parts: part one provides a background to the trends in computing and introduces the need for business-oriented solutions case studies are also introduced; part two offers a basic compendium of data communications knowledge; part three describes a number of different styles in distributed and cooperative systems; and part four introduces an overall design methodology, showing how it can be adapted and used to arrive at effective IS solutions. The text is aimed at practically-oriented computer and information technology students requiring an understanding of distributed and cooperative computing for today's business needs.
