Knowledge and information systems

Abstract

217Basic company's sources and the elements of evaluation have a very old history. The usage of information technologies substantially speeded up the realisation of single company operations, but actually the essence of management has not changed. in reality, there are the basic principles on which any successful company must be based. The principles according to which the success of any company is judged can be set according to its demands. criteria can be various -short-term profit, long-term profit, market share or ratio indicators -return of investment (roi), Free cash Flow (FcF), the index of customer satisfaction, frequency of repeating purchases, costs for education, number of improving proposals. Some technical indicators can be used as an evaluating criterion -for instance the share of administrative work realised by the means of modern information technologies, the number of contacts with business partners realised by means of the most modern information technology. however, the evaluation of the firm must be unambiguous. Quality data and information are necessary for the overall evaluation of the firm. The quality of the documents is fully dependent on the quality of the company's data and information, then on the information system quality. The information system of the company is fully dependent on the human factor, it means on the managers of the company and on the ability of users to use the system. The contribution solves the issue of the management of information and communication technologies and information systems in the chosen sample of a company.

Kučírková Faculty of Economics and Management, Czech University of Life Sciences, Prague, Czech RepublicAbstract: We can see that the today's management level of informations is not quite fully controlled in most businesses. nowadays generation of information systems creates support for business processes with the aim of optimalization of these processes on the bases of experiences with similar business processes. Today's information systems are at the level of data management or information management. Quite a few manage information processes in the area of tactical and strategic planning and almost no one manages processes in the areas of gathering, distribution and sharing of knowledge in business. We can say, that investments to the information technologies do not guarantee the successful way to the management of information and knowledge in business.Key words: information technology, communication technology, internet, information system, data, information, knowledge Abstrakt: V současné době není ve většině podniků plně kontrolována úroveň řízení informací. informační systémy vytvá-řejí podporu pro obchodní procesy s cílem optimalizovat tyto procesy na základě zkušeností s podobnými obchodními procesy.

Information systems and communication networks for agriculture and rural people

“…Šilerová and Lang (2006) discussed the usage of the information systems and the expansion of the portals in the rural sector. The development of the information systems and its implementation with the portal solutions enable a web access to the information and the effective management and administration (Šilerová and Kučírková 2008). Similarly, Kučera and Látečková (2006) pointed out the importance of information systems concerning the solutions by the computer software and the expertise systems in agriculture and food sectors.…”

“…Although there are some farm-level studies on information systems (ramkumar 1995;ortiz 1997;Demiryürek 2000;Jordan et al 2003;Boyacı 2006;Demiryürek et al 2008), studies on social networks (rogers and Kincaid 1981;hoang et al 2006;Morone et al 2006;Demiryürek 2008) for farmers are very limited. Apart form the application of information systems to agricultural sectors, information systems can be applied to agricultural business, marketing and food sectors with the appropriate software and web portals to support decision making and information management (Kučera and Látečková 2006;Šilerová and Lang 2006;Dařena 2007;Šilerová and Kučírková 2008).…”

Analysis of the exploitation of information and communication technologies in the agri-food sector companies

“…Problems connected with the use of information and communication technologies and internet services are also discussed in the works of Popelka (2000), hennyeyová and okenka (2004), Šajbidorová and Tóthová (2004), Bielik and Sojková (2006), Korcová (2006), Kretter andhennyeyová (2006), horská andSparke (2007), Depeš (2008), Šilerová and Kučírková (2008) etc.…”

Behaviour of subjects in risk markets

“…The "new" economy is slowly but inevitably becoming the "qualified" economy -the economy of knowledge; because more and more human advanced discoveries and developments are applied to all kinds of goods and procedures of manufacturing (Šilerová and Kučírková 2008).…”
