CHAPTER 19 Information Systems Approach to Organizations of Karl Weick My father worked at a large metropolitan newspaper. I was six years old when he first took me to experience the final hour before the morning edition was "put to bed." The place was alive with activity-shouted orders, quick telephone calls, and copy boys running last-minute changes to the composing room. The whole scene was like watching a huge animal struggling for survival. Many systems theorists regard the image of a living organism as an appro priate metaphor to apply to all organizations-one model fits all. Even though mosquitoes, sparrows, trout, and polar bears represent vastly different species in the animal kingdom, they all have systems to provide for nourishment, respira tion, reproduction, and elimination of bodily waste. Karl Weick is uncomfortable comparing organizations...

...To set up a security and information sharing model for the company, it will be much better to utilize a manager security structure through Active Directory than through Workgroups. The reason for this is that there are many different departments within the company. Some information should only be available to specific users within various departments (such as managers). Other information should be available to all employees (employee handbooks, calendars, etc) and still other information should be accessible to only certain groups of people in specific departments (accounting, payroll, etc.) By instituting a managed security structure, it will be much easier to manage the access to resources and the addition or removal of users and/or access to these resources as the company grows and changes. The file/print/application architecture will be a client/server architecture so that the management of access to information and resources is in the hands of the network administrator as opposed to the individual users. This is an obvious security measure in any company dealing with sensitive information which should not be shared with all employees. Also this will create a centralized management system for the access to information and resources, making it easier to institute changes across the board. It would be very beneficial to create security group memberships in Active Directory, for the centralized and timely management of security. Simple changes to the security groups...

...Methods of Sharing Information at Bridgewater Interiors Patricia Reed HCS/325 January 30, 2012 Kelli Reid Methods of Sharing Information at Bridgewater Interiors The way that a business shares knowledge inside the organization as well as outside of the organization is very important. Whether a business shares knowledge through traditional means, or the new boundaryless means is critical to the success of the business. What are boundaryless organizations? “Boundaryless organizations communicate mainly through email, phone and other virtual methods rather than more traditional face-to-face communication. The freedom to telecommute with international employees removes geographical barriers to productivity and allows for schedule flexibility” (Hearst Communications, 2012). This paper will discuss the ways Bridgewater Interiors effectively shares knowledge within the organizations, and outside of the organization. This paper will also discuss whether these methods of communication are effective or ineffective, how these techniques can be used in a health care organization, and the impact that technology can have on information sharing. Bridgewater Interiors, a manufacturing company uses a variety of techniques and tools to effectively communicate with its business associates and employees. The first is daily team meetings at the beginning of every shift for all employees. The purpose of the daily team meetings is to exchange information that effects the entire facility,...

...Information sharing between the agencies within the Intelligence Community have dramatically increased over the last decade. Information sharing can help organizations around the United States prevent attacks, terrorism, and even help local law enforcement solve crimes. Even though information sharing has increased there are still many obstacles that prevent some information sharing to occur between the agencies. Lack of adequate government funding for some organizations can cause many of the local organizations to be restricted to valuable resources. In addition to the lack of funding, the individual methods in which each organization stores their information proves to be an issue as well. Since the development of fusion centers, this has...

Shieh Evaluating the value of information sharing in a supply chain using an ARIMA model Received: 10 October 2003 / Accepted: 20 April 2004 / Published online: 9 February 2005 © Springer-Verlag London Limited 2005 Abstract This paper considers a two-echelon supply chain, which contains one supplier and one retailer. It studies the quantification of the bullwhip effect and the value of informationsharing between the supplier and the retailer under an autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) demand of (0, 1, q). The results show that with an increasing value of q, bullwhip effects will be more obvious, no matter whether there is information sharing or not. When there exists information sharing, the value of the bullwhip effect is greater than it is without information sharing. With an increasing value of q, the gap between the values of the bullwhip effect in the two cases will be larger. Keywords ARIMA · Bullwhip effect · Information sharing · Supply chain dard deviation of order amount is bigger than that of sales, i.e. demand deviation. This kind of distortion winds upward in the form of an increasing square of the standard deviation [9]. The bullwhip effect has drawn much attention in recent years [1, 3, 4, 6, 8–10]. This effect conceals a serious problem of cost. For instance, due to an inefficient estimation of demand, various problems may occur, such...

...The importance of information sharing in a supply chain for the supplier‘s performance Bachelor thesis: Organization studies, 2nd semester, academic year 2011-2012 Thesis Circle: Time will tell…. A processes perspective on inter-organizational collaboration Name: PC Jansen ANR: 770926 E-mail: P.C.Jansen@uvt.nl The importance of information sharing in a supply chain for the supplier‘s performance Abstract This literature review investigates the effect of information sharing from a buyer to a supplier in a supply chain on the performance of that supplier, with taking in mind that the supplier has to combat the bullwhip effect. With the existence of the bullwhip effect, a supplier cannot make right forecasts and therefore has difficulties in planning its production and/or inventory control. This research shows that information sharing is the key solution to reduce or avoid the bullwhip effect and, by that, it positively influences the performance of the supplier in the chain.

...File Sharing: what and how Effects on music sales. Abstract File sharing is the practice of distributing or providing access to digitally stored information, such as computer programs, multimedia(audio, images and video), documents or electronic books. It may be implemented through a variety of ways.In this paper we are discuss common methods of storage, transmission and dispersion include manual sharing utilizing removable media, centralized servers on computer networks,World Wide Web-based hyperlinked documents, and the use of distributed peer-to-peer networking.We consider the specific case of file sharing and it’s effects on legal sales of music . 1. Introduction Files were first exchanged on removable media.Computers were able to accessremotefilesusing filesystem mounting and FTP servers.The mp3 encoding, which was standardized in 1991 and which substantially reduced the size of audio files, grew to widespread use in the late 1990s. In 1998, MP3.com and Audiogalaxy were established, The Digital Millennium Copyright Act was unanimously passed, and the first mp3 player devices were launched. In June 1999, Napster was released as an unstructured centralized peer-to-peer system, requiring a central server for indexing and peer discovery. It is generally credited as being the first peer-to-peer file sharing system. Gnutella, released in March, was the first decentralized file sharing network. In the gnutella network, all connecting software was considered equal...

...company has grown drastically over the years and now employs over 130 people. They specialize in bell and snag hook anchors and operate as a strictly wholesale organization both domestically and internationally. Their manufacturing facility consists of one building which includes manufacturing, shipping, receiving, raw materials, finished product storage, the foundry and administrative offices. Their manufacturing facility is antiquated, worn, and technology deprived and no longer meets the US safety and environmental standards. Question 1 Carefully review the assignment scenario/case study. From the limited information in the scenario/case study, identify at least three direct and specific long-term and three direct and specific short term operations changes that Albatross Anchor must make to gain a clear and sustainable competitive advantage (provide detailed information to validate and support each recommended change). Long-Term Operational Changes (01) The first long-term change that Albatross Anchor should make to gain a clear and sustainable competitive advantage is technology. Since Albatross Anchor was founded in 1976, they haven’t updated the ways that they manufacture anchors. Each type of anchor they produce uses different types of manufacturing styles and they need to be changed each time to accommodate a different anchor. The machinery is obsolete, outdated, and is no longer meeting the environmental standards in the US. Some of their competitors may have access...

...Punishment, and Self-Efficacy, the authors introduce what digital piracy is and how it changes on a constant basis. They show how the “United States government has been cooperating in the fight against digital piracy with the software, music and movie industries with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DCMA)” (Zhang, Smith, McDowell, 2009). They discuss how most people think that digital piracy is acceptable, it a soft crime and it does not hurt anyone, and most think that this information should be exchanged freely. The authors also did an online-survey study on college students who were taking Management Information Sciences (MIS) course at a public university in the southern United States in 2006 (Zhang, Smith, McDowell, 2009). The reason college students were used is that piracy is very prevalent in academia, and students use pirated software extensively. The students were asked to complete the survey within a week and a confidentiality statement was included to assure the student that no personal information would be disclosed. A Likert scale was used with a scale...

... and they are able to handle the data processing locally rather than on central servers. Because of this, PC to PC, or peer-to-peer computing can now occur when individual computers bypass central servers to connect and collaborate directly with each other. Three Distinct Peer-to-Peer Computing Models There are three distinct peer-to-peer computing models: 1. Multiple Peer Relationship PCs are connected/networked to each other through servers, and files can be shared and collected from anyone else on that same network. One key problem is this can lead to major breeches in security and intellectual property issues. Examples: Napster - http://www.napster.com (music sharing) Note: Due to legal issues, Napster has temporarily stopped file sharing services on their site. Kazaa - http://www.kazaa.com (multimedia sharing) Server Computer A Computer B Computer C 2.

...File sharing through the network is just as easy as saving a file to a floppy disk, flash drive, or CD-ROM. You can send the file over a network connection, instead of saving the file to a storage device and personally hand delivering it, or sending it. Some file transferring such as email, have limited space for file sharing. You can use multiple different ways of transferring files. File transfers such as (P2P) known as peer to peer act as a client, and server. (P2P) allows larger transfers of file sharing, but does not use a central server. File sharing helps administration because, you can still have the security of the file that may be needed for business, or personal needs. Storing files in a central server allows only clients with permissions of the file. Files can be encrypted to protect information, and you have to have a password to access the content of the file. File sharing is better than using an external device since, external devices can be lost, or stolen. Sharing a file through a network allows the encryption to protect the permissions of the file, and only clients eligible of the content can see it. A good example of having file sharing instead of an external device is, when you have a extended business that needs to reach out to other owned locations. Instead of spending more money for external devices to be sent through the mail, which takes time and the package may not ever make it to the destination. Why not send the information through the network...
