Enterprises are organisations with multiple business processes; they often use Enterprise Information Systems (EIS) to support these business processes. The concept of an EIS has arisen from the need to deal with the increasingly volatile requirements of modern large–scale organisations. EIS are growing in use and are now being used to support government, health care, and non-profit / non-gover...

Executive information systems (EIS) are designed to serve the needs of executive users in strategic planning and decision-making. Sometimes the terms “executive information systems” and “executive support systems” are used interchangeably (Turban, McLean, & Wetherber, 1999). Definitions of EIS are varied but all identify the need for information that support decisions about the organization. EI...

The success of implementing Enterprise Information System (EIS) depends on exploring and improving the EIS software, and EIS software training. However, the synthesis of the EIS implementation approach has not been investigated. In this chapter, the authors propose an integrated research and training approach for students and employees about enterprise information systems (EIS) that are encount...

Aims: We investigated recent trend of variceal bleeding in patients with portal hypertension and its treatments including ectopic varices. Methods: One hundred forty-four patients with variceal bleeding events and portal hypertension were evaluated retrospectively from December 2012 to June 2016. Results: Sites of 144 variceal bleeding were as follows; esophageal varices in 67, cardiac varices ...

PURPOSE To evaluate the feasibility and patient satisfaction with electrical impedance scanning (EIS) for early detection of breast cancer in young women. METHODS Women undergoing screening clinical breast examination, imaging, or biopsy were eligible for EIS examination with T-Scan 2000ED (Mirabel Medical Systems, Austin, TX). Multiple logistic regression analysis evaluated the association b...

The intracellular pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) causes tuberculosis, and one of its secreted effector proteins, called enhanced intracellular survival (Eis) protein, enhances its survival in macrophages. Mtb Eis activates JNK-specific dual-specificity protein phosphatase 16 (DUSP16)/mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase-7 (MKP-7) through the acetylation on Lys55, thus inactiv...

Enterprise Information Systems (EIS) provide a technology platform that enable organizations to integrate and coordinate their business processes. They provide a single system that is central to the organization and ensure that information can be shared across all functional levels and management hierarchies (Wikipedia). As a business management system, EIS seek to combine all aspects of the or...

We present a microfluidic device, which enables single cells to be reliably trapped and cultivated while simultaneously being monitored by means of multifrequency electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in the frequency range of 10 kHz-10 MHz. Polystyrene beads were employed to characterize the EIS performance inside the microfluidic device. The results demonstrate that EIS yields a low coeffic...
