Distributed Cooperative Budget-Planning and -Control

  • Chapter
Distributed Information Systems in Business

Abstract

This presentation summarizes our efforts to implement a budgeting computer system, named INZPLA, that allows managers to realize a cooperative budgeting and control system for decentralized organizations applying network- and database-technology in a distributed environment. The INZPLA system is based upon the theory of ITP. The theory determines INZPLA to be a highly specified application of commonly known technology of equation based systems. It enables a complete decentralized budget planning and control procedure to be performed. Up to now, equation based systems have not been employed for this economic purpose. We have found that the application of an equation based system has significant advantages.

INZPLA is a client server application based on a relational DBMS.
