Synopsis

Business modelling, as described in this book, is the combination of data modelling and process modelling. The author outlines a method of determining what a business does and what data is needed to support its activities. Some emphasis is put on strategic planning, but the main thrust of the book is how to analyze data and use a computer to get the most out of it. A background in systems planning is useful but not required. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
