Management Systems and Communications

M. F. Woods

Chapter 8 in The Managerial Implications of Microelectronics, 1981, pp 140-151 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Management systems have been with working managers ever since the experimental entrepreneurship of the industrial revolution became codified. However the advent of the main-frame computer after World War I, and the success of operational research, provided new impetus to their extension. With several, and notable, exceptions the move towards computerised management systems has in practice proved slow and disappointing.
