Introduction to the Institute of Information Systems and Management
First, the main research direction and significance
1. Group decision support system.
The globalization of business and the need for different experience and expertise at work are the reasons why group work is becoming more and more important. As a tool to support group work, the group decision support system has received great attention over the years, and the academic community has conducted a lot of research on it. As a new research field of GSS, virtual teams are typical representatives of group decision making in different time zones and different locations. With the development of Internet information technology, the development and construction of virtual teams has become the focus of academic research. A common understanding and free exchange of discussions is a key point in virtual team building.
2. Integration of the e-commerce environment.
E-commerce is a simple, fast and low-cost electronic communication method, in which buyers and sellers do not face all kinds of business activities. Companies use the Internet or other networks to find the best partners to complete all transactions from transaction negotiation, ordering to settlement. However, due to the differences in the network environment of enterprises and the different application systems, to realize the e-commerce model, application integration of e-commerce is one of the main problems we face. Because a large number of enterprises have their own network environment and application system after a long period of informationization process, these network environments are often heterogeneous, and information exchange between application systems is also impossible. Therefore, enterprises have adopted EDI and distributed object technology for e-commerce application integration, but these technologies have defects to varying degrees. E-commerce application integration provides new solutions that are of great significance to the development of e-commerce.
3. Distributed data mining.
The goal of data mining is large-scale data sets. In the real world, most large databases exist in a distributed form. Therefore, it is very necessary to propose a new distributed data mining system architecture. . In data mining systems, data from databases in different sites are often needed, which makes data mining systems must have the ability of distributed mining. At the same time, new distributed data mining algorithms should be designed according to the characteristics of distributed data mining. . Due to network bandwidth limitations, data privacy and security, system incompatibility, etc., it is often unrealistic to put all data sources in a centralized place for centralized data mining. Distributed data mining has broad prospects in e-commerce recommendation systems.
Second, the characteristics of research institutions, construction goals, research ideas, measures
The Institute of Information Systems and Management of Hubei University of Economics was established to use information technology and modern management techniques to study enterprise informationization and its strategic theories and management methods in the e-commerce environment, to study the Internet/Extranet of enterprises, and to realize enterprises. Online information collection, online product information, online product sales, online after-sales service and other functions, sharing global resources, enhancing exchanges between enterprises and the outside world, allowing enterprises to integrate into international competition, achieving cross-regional, cross-industry, cross-ownership and transnational operations. . At the same time, the establishment and operation of the research center is conducive to teachers participating in domestic and foreign studies, attending high-level academic conferences, and publishing international academic papers.
The research ideas and measures are: rationally construct the business process and management process of the enterprise, improve the organizational structure and management system of the enterprise; establish the overall database of the enterprise; establish various related automation and management systems; establish an intranet to achieve internal information of the enterprise. Optimal configuration; establish an extranet to enable information sharing between enterprises and partners, suppliers, and customers or consumers; connect to the Internet, obtain information related to business operations, and enrich their information resources; supply chain management in e-commerce environment Research on theory and method; research on logistics management and control in e-commerce environment; research on enterprise reorganization, process reengineering and business transformation under e-commerce environment; research on network organization design, alliance strategy, internal benefit distribution mechanism and rationality evaluation; Research on corporate culture, corporate form and cooperative competition strategy between enterprises under the environment.
