The method of the implementation of this system and its results will be examined in this paper

SaaSに関する一考察

As the Palmisano Report (2004) point outs, there is a growing trend towards trying to build innovation networks in a more conscious fashion ; innovation focusing on service oriented style or service science. In the ITsystems world, these movements will be translated into the fashionable key words "Software as a Service : SaaS". The word "Service" means that customers pay not for owning or producing the software itself but for using or leasing it. SaaS is a software application delivery model where a software vendor develops a webnative software application and hosts and operates the application for use by its customers over the Internet. There are two types of SaaS providers.The first is an ASP where a customer purchases and brings to a hosting company a copy of the software (a singletalent architecture). The second type of SaaS offers what is often called software ondemand,where a company offers to customers software specifically built for one-to-many hosting (a multitalent architecture). Key characteristics of SaaS software are: 1. network-based access to commercially available software 2. activities that are managed from central locations rather than at each customers site, enabling customers to access aplications remotely via the web 3. application delivery that typically is closer to a one-to-many model than to a one-to-one model 4. centralised feature-updating, which obviates the need for downloadable patches and upgrades. In brief, SaaS is beginning to shift from a pure software application delivery scheme to a very sophisticated usage and delivery model for business process functionality. This paper discusses the concept of SaaS, key characteristics of software deliverd by SaaS, a comparison of APS versus SaaS, the concepts of SOA, Ajax, Rich client, and so on

経済主義の経済倫理学 : ホーマンらの所論を中心として

K.Homann(Munich University) and his colleagues advocate the economic ethics of economism. Economism refers to the thinking that principles of the market economy like competition and profit maximization, etc. have a decisive influence on the economic actions of business enterprises and of all kinds of people in the economic system. Although the market economy has contributed to economic growth, it sometimes has serious ethical defects and social conflicts. To avoid these situations, Homann and his colleagues insist that the economic framework should be changed through democratic procedures under the strong influence of the market economy. For them it is a central theme of economic ethics. In this paper we explain the characteristics of this type of economic ethics and give some consideration to the problems concerning them

イタリア南部経済発展に関して1950年代に書かれた時局論の詳説と検討(6)

The 1950s were the crucial period for the economic development of Mezzogiorno. In 1950 three laws of the land reform were promulgated and the agrarian reform and modernization began to be implemented. In the same year the Cassa per il Mezzogiorno (the state fund for the South) was set up. A great number of scholars, journalists, essayists and politicians participated in the discussions of the questioni meridionali (the southern questions) and made public their opinions in magazines and newspapers. This paper aims to expatiate and examine the then current articles. They are different from the statistics or the academic researches. They convey us the enthusiasm or the desperation of the discussants who witnessed the southern situation. These articles were collected meticulously in Informazioni SVIMEZ which Associazione per lo sviluppo dell\u27 industria del Mezzogiorno continues to publish until today since its foundation in December 1946. This paper picks up a newspaper article La industrializzazione del Mezzogiorno la facciamo onon la facciamo? (Do we implement or do we not implement the industrialization of the Southern Italy?) collected in Informazioni SVIMEZ, January 26-February 2, 1955, in order to expatiate and discuss the witness\u27 opinion on the economic development in Mezzogiorno

学官連携による「阿波ナビ」魅力向上プロジェクト

The Project for Boosting the Appeal of Awa Navi was commenced as part of an academiagovernment project by Tokushima Prefecture, private enterprises and Shikoku University. This project involved the renewal of Awa Navi, a website managed by the Tourism Planning Division of Tokushima Prefecture and the Tokushima Tourist Association, which provides tourist information. The sole objective was not "industry", but it provided technical support to the academia-led academiagovernment collaboration, which was worked on with students through coursework. It was valuable as the "best practice" on how to proceed with new academiagovernment collaborations. The work-flow used for producing websites was applied to execute the project and it was used by people from the different disciplines of academia and government as the compass to advance the project smoothly towards the single goal of producing a website. The work-flow of website production was also reflected in the coursework and the students got involved in direction and design. In the year leading up to the launch of Awa Navi, they practiced everything from website production to development, including planning and design, much like an OJT(Onthe-Job Training)
