A description of information system technologies and implementations of project information management systems for use in the South African Government

Thesis (MEng)--University of Stellenbosch, 2002. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis focuses on information systems for project management in the South
African Government with special attention to the Consolidated Municipal
Infrastructure Programme. Project data exchange standards and the suitability of these
standards for project information management in the South African Government is
reviewed. Information system technologies applicable to project management, with
reference to computer programming languages, markup languages, communication
technologies, Internet technologies, database technologies and document
manipulation tools are discussed. Project information management forms are then
discussed, followed by an overview of the flow of project information during the
lifecycle of a project. The standards development organisation, ActionIt, and the
project information management models developed by it are highlighted. A
description of applications and a system that was implemented to illustrate the work
covered in this thesis is provided with examples of the applications and the system.
Hierna tesis fokus op inligting sisteme vir projekbestuur in die Suid Afrikaanse
Regering met spesifieke verwysing na die Gekonsolideerde Munisipale Infrastruktuur
Program. Standaarde vir die uitruil van projek inligting sowel as die toepaslikheid van
hierdie standaarde vir die bestuur van projek inligting in die Suid Afrikaanse Regering
word bespreek. Informasie sisteem tegnologiee wat van toepassing is op die bestuur
van projek inligting word behandel en sluit in: rekenaar programerings tale, 'markup'
tale, kommunikasie tegnologiee, Internet tegnologiee, databasis tegnologiee en
gereedskap om dokumente te manipuleer. Verskillende projek vorms word behandel
gevolg deur 'n beskrywing van die vloei van data gedurende 'n projek se leeftyd. "n
Beskrywing van ActionIT, 'n organisasie vir die neerle van standaarde vir gebruik in
die Suid Afrikaanse regering, sowel as die modelle wat deur ActionIT ontwikkel is vir
die bestuur van projek inligting word gegee. Die toepassings en sisteem wat
geimplimenteer is om die werk wat in hierdie tesis behandel is te demonstreer word
gegee met voorbeelde van die toepassings en sisteem. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: geen opsomming
