End User Computing Book 2

Advanced Topics in End User Computing features the latest research findings dealing with end user computing concepts, issues, and trends. Empirical and theoretical research concerned with all aspects of end user computing including development, utilization, and management are included. Volume three is specifically interested in those studies that show a significant contribution by relating end user computing to end user satisfaction, end user productivity, and strategic and competitive advantage. *Note: This book is part of a new series entitled "Advanced Topics in End User Computing." This book is Volume Three within this series (Vol. III, 2004).

Examines practical research and case studies on such benchmark topics as biometric and security technology, protection of digital assets and information, multilevel computer self-efficacy, and end-user Web development. Provides research into the advancement, productivity, and performance of the end user computing domain.

Analyzes cognitive, social and technical issues of end user programming. Drawing on empirical research on existing end user systems, this text examines the importance of task-specific programming languages, visual application frameworks and collaborative work practices for end user computing.

Advanced Topics in End User Computing is a series of books, which feature the latest research findings dealing with end user computing concepts, issues, and trends. Empirical and theoretical research concerned with all aspects of end user computing including development, utilization, and management are included. Advanced Topics in End User Computing, Volume 4 is a part of this series. Advanced Topics in End User Computing, Volume 4 is divided into three segments which cover such important topics as: organizational and end user computing issues, trends, and successes, collaborative technologies and implementation issues, and e-commerce processes and practices. This scholarly book is a collection which brings a wealth of end user computing information to one accessible location.

A complete six-year primary computing course that takes a real-life, project-based approach to teaching young learners the vital computing skills they will need for the digital world. Each unit builds towards the creation of a final project, with topics ranging from designing your own robot to programming simple games and creating web pages.

This is the first text to address the growing subject of end user computing (EUC). Offers a comprehensive treatment of the major functions of EUC planning, support, and management. Provides up-to-date coverage of data communications, local area networks (LANS), and personal computer applications. Part I provides background information for planning, training, and operating an information center. Part II addresses small systems: PC hardware, software, and applications (spreadsheets, data management systems, word processing, etc.), including coverage of the P/S 2 and Macintosh systems. Part III discusses large systems and networking, covering host systems, terminal interfaces, LANS, data communication, and many more large systems that apply to EUC.
