Fitting Standard Software Packages to Non-standard Organizations: The 'Biography' of an Enterprise-wide System
A This paper investigates the development and implementation of a generic off-the-shelf computer package and the competing pressures for standardization and differentiation as this package is made to fit new organizational settings. The particular focus is on an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system and its application within universities. In order for the ERP system to fit this sett...

This paper investigates the development and implementation of a generic off-the-shelf computer package and the competing pressures for standardisation and differentiation as this package is made to fit new organisational settings. The particular focus is on an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system and its application within universities. In order for the ERP system to fit this setting a new...
متن کاملA Simple Approach to Fitting Non - Standard GEEs
In this paper we present an easy estimation approach for solving non-standard GEEs based on global optimization methods. Our approach has the added advantage that it can be easily implemented using existing software, such as the subroutine nlminb in Splus, which also allows for the inclusion of constraints. To illustrate our approach, we fit a non-linear dose response model with constraints to ...
متن کاملFitting semiparametric additive hazards models using standard statistical software.
The Cox proportional hazards model has become the standard in biomedical studies, particularly for settings in which the estimation covariate effects (as opposed to prediction) is the primary objective. In spite of the obvious flexibility of this approach and its wide applicability, the model is not usually chosen for its fit to the data, but by convention and for reasons of convenience. It is ...
متن کاملAn Approach to Non-standard Analysis
This note has two principal aims: to portray an essence of Non-Standard Analysis as a particular structure (which we call lim-rim), noting its interplay with the notion of ultrapower, and to present a construction of Non-Standard Analysis, viewed as a matter of mathematics, where the set A of non-standard elements of a set A – “the adjunction of all possible limits” is a “good” kind of lim-rim ...
