Much has been written on Information Systems Planning in the for-profit organisations, but little is known about it in the Not-for-Profit sector, particularly in the Australian context. This paper has attempted to conceptualise the problem of Information Systems planning in the Not-for-Profit organisations. It provides insight into Information Systems Planning practices in Not-for-Profit-Organisations and the problems of current Information Systems Planning practices in Not-for-Profit-Organisations. The contribution of this paper is two folds, theoretically and for practitioners. Theoretically, it has provided a model that enables people to understand why or why not Not-for-Profit-Organisations do or do not conduct Information Systems Planning. Regarding practitioners, the factors identified in this study would help planners, managers and executives to understand the key areas and plan accordingly and for donors they would be able to understand where are their contributions needed the most and be able to follow up and ensure that their donations/contributions are utilised in the right areas hence increase Not-for-Profit-Organisations accountability with regards to planning for Information Systems.

Advanced planning and scheduling (APS) refers to a manufacturing management process by which raw materials and production capacity are optimally allocated to meet demand. APS is especially well-suited to environments where simpler planning methods cannot adequately address complex trade-offs between competing priorities. However, most scheduling problems of APS in the real world face both inevitable constraints such as due date, capability, transportation cost, set up cost and available resources. In this survey paper, we address three crucial issues in APS, including basic scheduling model, job-shop scheduling (JSP), assembly line balancing (ALB) model, and integrated scheduling models for manufacturing and logistics. Several evolutionary algorithms which adapt to the problems are surveyed and proposed; some test instances based on the practical problems demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of evolutionary approaches.

Despite the large and ongoing investments in information systems and technologies, many organizations still suffer from the lack of integration and interoperability of multiple information systems, In order to deal with these enduring problems, a number of government organizations and corporate firms in the United States have developed and maintained IT architectures through enterprise architecture planning. An IT architecture is a decision-making framework for IT planners and developers, establishing guidelines for the individual IT resource owners and users. It provides guidance to those involved in building and maintaining IT systems and infrastructure. Enterprise architecture planning represents a new paradigm of information systems planning in that it addresses the long-term view of the enterprise organization from top-level principles to detailed technology architectures. This paper explores a couple of cases in the successful implementation of IT architectures in both public and private sectors, and proposes a step-by-step methodology for building an effective IT architecture.

The recent fast change of information technology and business environments has led to increasing effort to achieve the business goals by using company resources effectively and efficiently Strategic Information Systems Planning is the first and significant step support the objectives. However, the present situation is that the SISP works are performed only by the methodological process of some chosen consulting house without a full considerations of organizational environment and system development characteristics. So, this study's purpose is to improve SISP works by observing the organizational environment factors through planning cases. This paper is composed of investigating the organizational characteristics and the additional problems from the analysis of three cases on the basis of 12 organization context factors founded by previous studies. And the conclusive part presents the organizational considerations according to each planning steps. This works will be used framework of SISP on the contrary previous studies only found organizational factors related to SISP works by questionary research methods. The more fundermental and multi-dimentioned researches is to be expected as more enterprises perform SISP works.

GIS는 속성자료와 관련하여 공간자료를 다루는데 강력한 수단이다. 그러나 GIS는 동적인 계획문제(dynamic planning problems)를 다루는데 있어서 분석기능과 인터페이스기능이 부족하다. 의사결정지원 체계(Decision Support Systems: DSS)는 그래픽사용자인터페이스(Graphic User Interface: GUI)기능, 모델링기능과 데이터베이스기능을 제공하여 GIS의 부족한 면을 보완한다. DSS의 새로운 분류인 공간의사 결정지원체계(Spatial Decision Support Systems: SDSS)는 공간차원의 문제를 취급할 시 표현기능, 기본적인 분석기능, 그리고 공간, 비공간자료 취급기능과 같은 GIS의 기능과 그래픽사용자인터페이스기능, 모델링기능, 그리고 데이터베이스기능과 같은 DSS의 기능을 통합한다. 계획지원체계(Planning Support Systems: PSS)는 SDSS의 기능에 더 진보된 공간분석기능과 시간기능을 추가한다. 이 연구에서는 GIS, 가치공학(value engineering: VE), 그리고 생애주기비용(life cycle costing: LCC)에 의한 토지이용계획에 따른 상수도관망의 용량확장을 위한 PSS의 구축에 초점을 맞추고자 한다. 이러한 PSS는 토지이용계획에 따른 상수도 필요량을 공급하고 도시성장 규제를 위한 일련의 용량확장대안을 작성하고 도시성장에 연관되는 상수도관망의 투자에 관한 문제를 다룬다.

MIS researches involve, in particular, the problems of developing appropriate IS for given MIS environments and lay emphasis on identifying prominant IS characteristics pertaining to the system in issue. This study deals with the IS characteristics for the management task of "planning". It investigates empirically the impacts of IS characteristics, under a set of proposed hypotheses, with particular respect to users' information satisfaction and performance in carrying out the task of planning. Futhermore, it examines whether the IS characteristics have different effects depending on the planning modes on the part of IS users. Based on a group of hypotheses accepted, the IS characteristics for planning decision making are not only proposed according to planning modes: preactive, reactive and proactive, but also classified into six subsystem categories: input, process, ouput, storage, interface and communication. Finally, the implications of the findings are discussed.

Recently, spatial information technologies using remotely sensed imagery and functionality of GIS (Geographic Information Systems) have been widely utilized to various types of transportation-related applications. In this study, extraction programs of some practical indices, to be effectively used in transportation reference planning problem, were designed and implemented as prototyped extensions in GIS development environment: traffic flow estimation (TFL/TFB), urban rural index (URI), and accessibility index (AI). In TFL/TFB, user can obtain quantitative results on traffic flow estimation at link/block using high-resolution satellite imagery. Whereas, URI extension provides urban-rural characteristics related to road system, being considered one of important factors in transportation planning. Lastly, AI extension helps to obtain accessibility index between nodes of road segments and surrounding district areas touched or intersected with the road network system, and it also provides useful information for transportation planning problems. This approach is regarded as one of RS-T (Remote Sensing in Transportation), and it is expected to expand as new application of remotely sensed imagery.

현재의 GIS가 감당할 수 있는 것은 모든 공간적 문제는 아니다. 그동안 알려진 GIS는 정보를 생산해 내는 정보위주의 GIS일뿐 정보의 다각적 이해와 의사결정과 정에 깊이 관여하지 못하였다. 단순문제(structured problems)들을 해결하기에는 정보위주의 GIS가 적합하지만 계획과 설계와 같은 비단순문제(ill-structured problems)들을 다루기에는 미흡한 단계이며, 이 단계에서 도약하기 위해 개념위주의 SDSS(Spatual Decision Suppert System)로 발전되어야 한다. 이 글에서는 개념위주의 SDSS가 비단순문제 해결을 지원하기 위한 기구로서 소개되며 정보위주 GIS의 미래상으로 비젼(vision)을 제시한다.

Facility Layout Planning is concerned with how to arrange facilities necessary for production in a given space. Its objective is often to minimize the total sum of all material flows multiplied by the distance among facilities. FLP belongs to NP complete problem; i.e., the number of possible layout solutions increases with the increase of the number of facilities. Thus, meta heuristics such as Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Simulated Annealing have been investigated to solve the FLP problems. However, one of the biggest problems which lie in the existing meta heuristics including GA is hard to find an appropriate combinations of parameters which result in optimal solutions for the specific problem. The Ant System algorithm with elitist and ranking strategies is used to solve the FLP problem as an another good alternative. Experimental results show that the AS algorithm is able to produce the same level of solution quality with less sensitive parameters selection comparing to the ones obtained by applying other existing meta heuristic algorithms.

In the existing ISP methods, the important' role of enterprise value is usually ignored or not recognized in the information systems planning (ISP). Besides, in some ISP methods, there is a connotative precondition that the main body of value is always the enterprise stakeholder. Thus, in ISP, the enterprise stakeholders‘ value has been recognized while the value of other main bodies has been neglected, which has resulted in boycott and other problems in normalization construction. Based on the existing ISP analysis frame and ways, this article analyzes the enterprise fundamental principle of enterprise value acting on ISP and defines the formation of enterprise value. On the basis of Keeney's analysis way of value focused thinking for decision-making, we induct the factors of enterprise value into the ISP method and set forth such an ISP process: (1) identify the aggregation of enterprise value; (2) conform the objective structure of enterprise levels; (3) determine the appraisal standard for enterprise fundamental objectives; (4) determine the basic structure for information systems ; (5) confirm the data requirements for information systems; (6) give appraisal and comment.
