ENTERPRISE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Enterprise Management Systems (EM Systems) are Network Management Systems (NMSs) capable of managing devices, independent of vendors and protocols, in Internet Protocol (IP)-based enterprise networks.
Following is an overview of the network and software architecture of typical EM Systems from two perspectives:
1. Network Architecture—This perspective describes the physical network topology of the managers and agents.
2. Software Architecture—This perspective describes the software construction of the manager and agent components.

Network Architectures
The network architecture describes how the EM Systems is deployed. There are several models that can be employed to organize how the managers are organized. Models can be a single central manager, hierarchical managers, distributed peer managers, etc. Network architecture also includes the management protocols that are used to communicate information about the management resource between the managers and agents.

Software Architectures
The software architecture describes the EM Systems internal construction. This architecture includes the information model that is the software representation of the managed resources and the functional capabilities of the network management system, such as FCAPS functions.
EM Systems software architectures can be classified into the following categories:

1. Element Management Systems (EMSs)—This class of systems are developed by computer and network switch manufacturers, and are specialized to manage
only a particular device.

2. Management Platforms—This class of systems are actually development frameworks for NMSs. There are two development frameworks available, one for the agent side and the other for the management side.

3. Management Applications—This class of systems can implement one or more FCAPS functions and may implement these functions in both categories, depending on the scope of the managed resources.
4. Management Systems—This class of systems provides core services, which are
accessed via APIs, to the management applications.

Advantages and Disadvantages of EIS Advantages of EIS Easy for upper-level executives to use, extensive computer experience is not required in operations Provides timely delivery of company summary information Information that is provided is better understood Filters data for management Improves to tracking information Offers efficiency to decision makers Disadvantages of EIS System dependent Limited functionality, by design Information overload for some managers Benefits hard to quantify High implementation costs System may become slow, large, and hard to manage Need good internal processes for data management May lead to less reliable and less secure data

Inter-Organizational Value Chain

The value chain of   a company is part of over all value chain. The over all competitive advantage of an organization is not just dependent on the quality and efficiency of the company and quality of products but also upon the that of its suppliers and wholesalers and retailers it may use. The analysis of overall supply chain is called the value system. Different parts of the value chain 1.  Supplier     2.  Firm       3.   Channel 4 .   Buyer

CONCEPTUAL VIEW OF MIS

The concept is a blend of principles, theories and practices of management, information and system giving rise to a single product called MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM . The concept of management gives high regard to the individual and his ability to use the information. MIS gives information through data analysis. While analyzing the information, it relies on many academic disciplines like management science, OR, organization behavior, psychology, etc. The foundation of MIS is the principles of management and its practices. MIS uses the concept of management control in its design and relies heavily on the fact that the decision maker is a human being and is a human processor of information. A MIS can be evolved for a specific objective it is evolved after systematic planning and design. It calls for an analysis of business, management views and policies, organization culture and the management style. The MIS,therefore relies heavily on systems theory.The systems theory offers soluti
