Reusable Conceptual Models as a Support for the Higher Information Quality
نویسنده
چکیده
Today we are faced with an increasing demand for more and more complex database applications. The rapid growth has stimulated the need for a high level concepts, tools and techniques for a database design, development and retrieval with a final goal: better information quality. One of the new possibilities is using a meta data model repository with reusable components (MetaBase). Even more, just as important as reusability is in such a concept the quality dimension of reusable components which enables more expedient and efficient design of the high quality data models. As a consequence, data quality as well as information quality of any information system improves. In the paper the influence of reusability on the information quality, quality dimensions of the meta data model repository and influence of TQM as well as some of Deming’s fourteen points will be presented and discussed in more details.

Key Factors for Defining the Conceptual Framework for Quality Assurance in E-Learning
E-learning has evolved for more than a decade, and universities are gradually embracing e-learning to provide more learning experience for their learners. E-learning is the use of electronic means through which training is received and obtained. E-learning offers a wide range of advantages (time and room mobility, cost-effectiveness, etc.) and also overcomes the limitations of digital learning ...
متن کاملGenerating large-scale repositories of reusable artifacts for conceptual design of information systems
The design and construction of reusable artifacts is a labor-intensive and demands significant time and effort from expert designers. The up-front investment needed for constructing repositories of reusable artifacts is, therefore, often difficult to justify without immediate benefits. This research proposes a methodology, called the Domain Fragment Creator (DFC), to overcome this problem. It r...

Quality Function Deployment (QFD) has been traditionally used as a planning tool primarily for product development and quality improvement. In this context, many people have used QFD for making decisions on how to prioritize critical product areas from a customer perspective. However, it is the position of the author that the QFD process can be viewed as a decision support system that would enc...
متن کاملA Joint Semantic Vector Representation Model for Text Clustering and Classification
Text clustering and classification are two main tasks of text mining. Feature selection plays the key role in the quality of the clustering and classification results. Although word-based features such as term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF) vectors have been widely used in different applications, their shortcoming in capturing semantic concepts of text motivated researches to use...
متن کاملA Superstructure for Models of Quality
With additional quality modeling features added to conceptual models, computers could play a greater role in ensuring a higher level of quality in the information we model. For information-discovery applications, these additional conceptual modeling features should automatically accommodate certainty and conflicting information, support evidence-based research, automate collaboration, and provi...
