Description
In this timely volume, author John J. Donovan builds the mechanisms for achieving the harmony so desperately needed by today's organizations and offers top management a new focus for their business: add value continuously. The book presents a re-engineered information technology architecture: a three-tiered client/server, an architecture based on open systems, and Open Distributed Environment tools.
The book's mission is to revolutionize the way corporations do business and to support that revolution with a constantly evolving information technology. In short, the heart of Dr. Donovan's message can be summed up as follows: "Your business must constantly adapt to a changing environment. Therefore, you must choose an adaptive information architecture that has the flexibility to support both changes in the business environment and changes in technology."
