Business depends on the various types of information. True value comes from connecting different enterprise systems together if there is such a need.There is a way of interaction for some different software and a way of connecting software together. It is through the use of XML-based Web services.Web services enable software built on different programming languages even for different operating systems interact together. Web service is a programme on the Internet which functional possibilities can be used writing application programmes.In order to create a Web service client application it is necessary to have a proxy class in this application programme. After creating an object of the proxy class in client application programme a developer can use the Web service methods as if he used the methods of his own programmes. As a practical example which can ease accountancy records I created the Web service witch automates the process of transferring data.While improving business management systems there arose a need to create useful Web services. The usage of Web services in the business management systems is a productive and efficient job with information: its discovery, receiving, processing and saving.

The notations of business processes can be used to design IT systems. If we want to reduce the expenses and the amount of mistakes of the bigger projects we need to create additional models, which can help us to find out whether the business processes are well understandable and correct. The question is how to reduce the expenses for creation of business process models. The purpose of thesis is to answer to this question: how to transform BPMN models to PLA method. The basic concepts was gathered and systemized, that will allow us to talk about business processes in a structured way. Also was made analysis of business process modeling languages (BPMN (Business Process Modeling Notation) and UML (Unified Modeling Language)). Also was described piece-linear aggregate (PLA) method, which is used for creation of dynamical models of business process. Was made BPMN model of ATM (automatic teller machine) business process, which was transformed to PLA model. The results of transformation was systemized and was made general requirements how to transform BPMN models to piece-linear aggregate.

Smulkus ir vidutinis verslas yra labai svarbus ne tik Lietuvoje, bet visame pasaulyje, nes jo išsivystymo lygis rodo valstybės ekonominę padėtį. Visos šalys pripažįsta, kad smulkųjį ir vidutinįjį verslą reikia skatinti ir plėtoti, kadangi visos valstybės daugiausia pinigų surenka būtent iš smulkiojo ir vidutiniojo verslo. Žinoma, kad šiai sričiai Europos Sąjunga skiria didelį dėmesį bei finansinę paramą. Lietuvos valdininkai daugiausia remia stambųjį verslą, o visiškai pamirštamos smulkias ir vidutines įmonės, kurios labai dažnai bankrutuoja, nepakeldamos didelės mokesčių naštos bei negalėdamos pasinaudoti įvairia teikiama valstybės parama bei fondais, kadangi valdininkų valdomos įmonės jas pasiekia pirmos. Problemos ištyrimo lygis. Lietuvos mastu yra atlikta daugybę tyrimų susijusių su smulkaus ir vidutinio verslo padėties įvertinimu ir plėtros klausimais, tačiau susijusių su Kauno regionu tokių tyrimų nėra daug, todėl mus ir paskatino imtis šio tyrimo. Siekiant įvertinti darbo svarbumą, pirmojoje darbo dalyje susipažinome su moksline literatūra, Lietuvos bei užsienio mokslininkų publikacijomis bei jau atliktais empiriniais smulkiojo ir vidutiniojo verslo tyrimais. Šiam tikslui pasiekti naudojomės Lietuvos statistikos departamento sukauptais statistiniais duomenimis bei įvairių organizacijų surinkta informacija apie atliktus tyrimus. Pirmoje dalyje pateikėme verslo sampratas, vidutinių, mažų ir mikro įmonių apibrėžimą bei smulkaus ir vidutinių įmonių veiklą reguliuojančius...

Magistro baigiamajame darbe nagrinėjami verslo vertinimo metodai ir atliekami skaičiavimai akcinių bendrovių vertei nustatyti. Tuo tikslu naudojami trys vertinimo. Diplominio darbo struktūra susideda iš trijų pagrindinių dalių. Pirmoje dalyje analizuojamas verslo vertės apibrėžimas ir analizuojami verslo vertinimo metodai. Antroje baigiamojo darbo dalyje, siekiant nustatyti pasirinktų akcinių bendrovių vertes, yra pasirenkama tyrimo metodologija, įvertinamas teisinis bendrovių vertinimo reglamentavimas ir nustatoma trijų įmonių vertė pasirinktais vertinimo metodais. Trečioje diplominio darbo dalyje sisteminami akcinių bendrovių vertės apskaičiavimo rezultatai, jie palyginami tarpusavyje ir skyriaus pabaigoje vertinamos vertės metodų taikymo galimybės. Šiame darbe pateikti vertės nustatymo metodai ir skaičiavimų rezultatai leidžia ne tik gauti pasirinktų akcinių bendrovių vertę, bet ir naudoti pateiktus metodus siekiant nustatyti kitų Lietuvos akcinių bendrovių vertę. Tačiau verslo vertinimo metodų taikymas reikalauja vertintojo patyrimo ir rizikos pasvėrimo. Verslo vertei būdingas neapibrėžtumas, todėl visuomet tikslinga vertinti įmonę keliais vertinimo metodais, iš jų išsirenkant tinkamiausią konkrečiam verslui. / The problem in company valuation is not that there not enough models to value an asset, it is that there are too many. Choosing the right model to use in valuation is as critical to arriving at a reasonable value as understanding how to use the model. This paper attempts to provide an overview of the valuation models and to come up to the market price of the company. The analyst faced with the task of valuing a firm or its equity has to choose among three different approaches – discounted cash flow valuation, relative valuation, and option pricing models – and within each approach, between different models. The main aim of this graduation paper was to analyze the firm valuation methods and after choosing the right method for determining firm value - to calculate the value of chosen companies. The study consists of three parts. First part is theoretical, where conception and methods of firm valuation are presented. Second part analyzes risk factors for firm valuation and presents methodology of firm value calculation. Third part contains overview of the firm valuation results and present future perspectives of firm valuation. The major part of material consisted of the information gained from specialized publications, articles from newspapers, magazines. The analytical part of this study was based on the researches and analysis of different analysts and author’s own opinion and then calculation of firm value.

In the research of the business IS development the business rules approach has achieved a lot of attention and already has a steady niche with a strong motivation behind. The usefulness of the approach and its advantages over the traditional IS development approaches call for the technology standards. Despite the work done towards standardization there is still a way to go – commercial products use their unique modeling languages for business rules, most of their rules processing and enforcement engines are stand-alone, even the embeddable ones use their unique rules representation format. In our research focusing on the business rules we have stepped towards employing the widely spread technology of active databases and have argued that it is feasible and possible to model business rules using conceptual graphs. Such a model having representations in visual and textual form (linear form and CGIF) and the possibility to translate the model to the near natural English language can be used both at conceptual and implementation levels. We have designed and implemented the automatic trigger generation component. Using the representative example from the real business organization (the representative example was comprised of structural domain knowledge and corresponding business rules) we have carried out the experiment during which the business rules model was transformed from visual notation to CGIF, then from CGIF to XML, and then from XML to MS SQL Server trigger.

Darbo tikslas – nustatyti verslo valdymo sistemų diegimo pagrindinius sėkmės faktorius atskiruose diegimo etapuose įmonėms Lietuvoje ir pateikti pasiūlymus didesnei VVS diegimo sėkmei užtikrinti. Pagrindiniai darbo uždaviniai: teoriškai išanalizuoti įmonės veiklą, išskirti ir apibrėžti jos funkcines sritis bei verslo procesus, išnagrinėti tarpusavio ryšius; išnagrinėti bendrus verslo valdymo sistemų bruožus, jų atsiradimo priežastis, raidą, išskirti pagrindinius diegimo etapus bei metodikas; apžvelgti Lietuvoje naudojamų verslo valdymo sistemų rinką; identifikuoti ir išnagrinėti pagrindinius mokslinėje literatūroje minimus VVS diegimo sėkmę lemiančius faktorius; kokybinio tyrimo būdu atlikti kritinių sėkmės faktorių analizę Lietuvos įmonėse; pateikti pasiūlymus VVS diegiančioms įmonėms didesnei diegimo sėkmei užtikrinti. Verslo valdymo sistemos diegimas yra pripažįstamas kaip problemiškas laiko ir biudžeto paskirstymo atžvilgiu. Šių sistemų diegimai yra sunkiau valdomi nei kiti IT projektai. Yra atlikta daug tyrimų, analizuojančių kritinius sėkmės faktorius verslo valdymo sistemos diegime. Vis dėlto dauguma tyrimų nagrinėjančių kritinius sėkmės faktorius apsiriboja pačių faktorių identifikavimu, o ne jų pritaikymu konkrečiam etapui ar tarpusavio ryšiais. Reikia pažymėti, kad Lietuvoje apie verslo valdymo sistemų diegimus publikuojami tik pavieniai straipsniai specializuotuose periodiniuose leidiniuose, o kritinius...

ERP systems are integrated enterprise-wide software packages that uses a modular structure to support a broad spectrum of key operational areas of the organization. They are widely acknowledged as having the potential to radically change existing businesses by bringing imporements in efficiency and the implementation of optimized business processes. ERP systems link together an organization's strategy, structure, and business processes with IT system. Although the technical risk from developing software is considerably reduced, risk during implementation is associated with aligning the processes with those of the software package and the corresponding change management and software configuration issues. The analysis of the cases reveals that in addition to standard project management critical success factors, there are other factors that need to be taken into account in ERP implementation. ERP systems have become popular means for both large and medium-size organizations to overcome the limitations of alienated and incompatible legacy systems. ERP systems are designed as an integrated set of software modules, all linked to a common database, handling a host of corporate functions such as finance, human resources... [to full text]
