Description
Summary:In this paper, main features of the M ∗ methodology for organization analysis and information system design are presented. The importance of integrating enterprise analysis and modelling and database design is stressed. M ∗ is structured into three major phases: Enterprise Modelling and Analysis, database Conceptual Design, and database Implementation Design. In this paper, the first two phases will be discussed and explained by means of case study concerning a flexible manufacturing system.
