Abstract
This paper discusses the use of an enterprise database management system and outlines the ways in which it can be used by a government contracting company to expand its business. The paper also highlights the attracting features and functionality offered by a DBMS and explains how it can improve activities at strategic, tactical and operational levels.
From the Paper
"A DBMS renders the interface between the application program and the data. If the Government Contracting Company plans to expand its business, then a DBMS would make the data representation for the users and the developers a lot easier. If any changes are made to the data representation, the metadata maintained by the DBMS would automatically be modified and the DBMS would persevere to render data to application programs in the usual manner. ?Hence, unlike previous databases the DBMS handles the task of transformation of data wherever necessary? (Gopal Gupta, Advantages Of Using A DBMS). The independence provided by the DBMS between the program and the data is referred to as data independence."

Abstract
The growth of information technology in line with the growth of the Internet demands for more data storage to facilitate retrieval of information at a rapid pace. The increased capacity og data storage gives rise to data warehousing and data mining, enabling businesses to index their data and formulate plans and projections using business intelligence mechanisms. In this essay, the writer discusses enterprise database management systems (DBMS). The writer concludes that no matter what the case may be, enterprise DBMS will continue to find its niche in various enterprise applications. Further, the writer notes that it will continually grow, as seen in various vendor sales statistics, and will be able to adapt to varying information technology changes.
From the Paper
"Enterprise DBMS have been applied to geographic information systems, cross continental supply chain management systems and global contact centers. Its robustness, scalability and dependability make it an ideal platform for business with global reach or international affiliates and connections. For enterprise resource planning (ERP), the enterprise DBMS is the most suitable type of database for deployment however, the major debilitating factor is cost-enterprise DBMS are very expensive both in terms of purchasing and maintenance."
"Some flavors, both proprietary and open-source, of the enterprise DBMS are:
1. DB2 Universal Database Enterprise Edition 7.2 - A multimedia, Web-ready RDBMS for e-business applications such as electronic commerce, enterprise resource planning (ERP), customer relationship management (CRM) supply-chain management, Web self-service and business intelligence."

Abstract
This paper discusses the implications of economic development, particularly in the form of enterprise zones. The paper defines enterprise zones and discusses their purpose, and focuses on the strengthening of enterprise zones in the state of North Carolina. The paper also looks at the cost benefit analysis and the incentives for the government to set up th development programs in the form of minority, women and disadvantaged business enterprise (MWDBE) programs. Finally, the paper looks at the ethical consequences associated with the programs.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"The city of Charlotte focuses consistently on the needs of the community and the ethical standards that are essential in evaluating programs and the populations that those programs affect ("City", 2006, p. 14). In some locations the economic development initiatives that have been attempted through the creation of enterprise zones have not been affective because of the government's willingness to bend rules regarding enterprise zone policies and support wealthy business owners. Yet, in North Carolina this issue was alleviated with the changes in the policies associated with enterprise zones in 1999. It is for this reason that it is evident that the inclusion of MWBDE businesses within enterprise zones in North Carolina would be handled with the utmost ethical considerations, leading to a successful partnership between enterprise zones and the disadvantaged businesses in the zone areas."

From the Paper
"The main business requirement is to allow salespersons access to customer information. Salespersons need to be able to find the customer's phone number and address, but they will have only the authority to add to the Phone Number table, if the customer's number is not already in the table. They also need to be able to view and update the Customer History. Employees may add customers and phone numbers, but they may not delete them. They will not have update authority on sales territories. They also will have no authority to update the City or State tables, except to relate a Customer to City."

Object-Oriented Database Management Systems (OODBMS), 2004.
This paper discusses the marketing problems of Object-Oriented Database Management Systems (OODBMS).

Abstract
This paper explains that Object-Oriented Database Management Systems (OODBMS), which emerged in the 1990s, quickly found their niche in handling complex data types; however, the long-term vision of OODBMSs to replace relational databases has never materialized. The author points out that OODBMS technology remains a small niche market, generating only around a few hundred million dollars in revenues, compared to the multi-billion dollar relational database market. The paper states that the goals of large relational database vendors, such as Oracle, IBM, and Microsoft, have been to synthesize the best of relational databases and OODBMs, such as the flexibility of the OODBMS data model and the performance of relational database functions, into an Object-Relational Database Management System.
From the Paper
"OODBMSs first started to be researched in the 1980s and the first commercial products gradually appeared in the early 1990s from vendors such as Object Design, Objectivity, Versant, Computer Associates and Ardent. By the late 1980s and early 1990s it was recognized that object oriented (OO) languages had some very strong advantages over non-OO languages for many programming applications. OODBMSs emerged to reduce the impedance mismatch between the programming languages and the DBMS, to offer performance advantages (due to navigation from roots and sophisticated caching and swizzling technologies), and to provide transparent support for complex user-defined types including the ability to store, call and query complex objects directly."

Abstract
This paper reviews the recent research on the TREC Enterprise Track, showing that the Enterprise Track includes research into ways of developing enterprise track searching, a means of providing data to a user who is searching the data of an organization to complete some task. Such a track is usually an internal search for data gathered and stored by the given enterprise, be that a business, a university, a government project, or any type of research project or business enterprise that gathers data. The paper further discusses how other users in the same organization can make use of this data for other purposes, for developing trends, for making predictions, and for many other tasks, and an enterprise search enables these users to find what they want in a useful form.

Abstract
This paper takes a thorough look at the practice of database outsourcing. The reasons for the rise in its popularity, its economic benefits, and its negative consequences on local workforces are all discussed. The paper concludes with a review of both the positive and negative aspects of outsourcing.
From the Paper
"The sale of database products has not been affected and database giants such as Oracle IBM and Microsoft continue to reap good profits. Compared to the same quarter last year the company?s profit rose by 28% this year. ?Oracle generated over $1.25bn in cash as our profitability continues to hit record levels." [Matt Hines] The recent outsourcing of developmental operations to India will contribute to huge cost savings in the coming years. However other database companies such as IBM and Microsoft are also gaining in their market share and catching up with Oracle. IBM and Oracle have also opened new services for their clients. For example IBM?S computing on demand program has become a huge success with more and more companies willing to get their software developmental work outsourced by IBM. The global network of developers, which the company enjoys, gives it the cost and time advantage. Similarly Oracle corporation is also providing its own outsourcing solutions to clients. Oracle?s Ebusiness suite outsourcing is part of the outsourcing program. Oracle?s proposed acquisition of ?Peoplesoft? is also done with a view to improve the software development and outsourcing solutions to clients around the world."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"One of the main means of internet security is through digital certifcation authorities (CA). This method includes the use of usernames, and passwords among other things. Authentification attempts to protect an enterprise wide network from hackers and to protect consumers from identity theft. An article in the CPA Journal explains that there are five areas of digital certification that need to be resolved. (PKI: The Key to Enhanced Internet Security Standards...2003 These areas include; Required identification, Authentication and authorization procedures, levels of assurance assigned to certificates, Accreditation of root and subordinate CAs under the WebTrust for Certification Authorities Program and Consistent application of standards across the CA industry (PKI: The Key to Enhanced Internet Security Standards...2003)."

Abstract
This paper provides a discussion and case study analysis concerning the various strategies that enterprise resource planning (ERP) vendors have developed. The paper uses examples of findings from small and medium enterprises (SMEs) who have utilized these new options. Included is an assessment of what barriers exist in the implementation of ERP systems in SMEs. The study also provides an overview of the relevant issues, as well as those factors that contributed to their success or failure. Salient findings and a summary of the research, including the fact that virtually all small to medium-sized enterprises can take advantage of the benefits offered through a well selected ERP package, are provided in the conclusion, as well as recommendations to follow.
From the Paper
"Today, more and more SMEs are being pressured by an increasingly globalized economy to modify their traditional management styles, both operationally and organizationally, by replacing them with more streamlined and integrated systems that serve to improve the speed and flexibility of their physical and information flows (Jones, 2002), help synchronize demand with supply, and help manage transactions more accurately (Bigras & Gelinas, 2004). There are, however, a wide range of ERP alternatives available to assist in this regard, depending on what size firm is involved (Laursen, 2002). The majority of the ERP software packages are most appropriate for companies with more than $500 million in annual sales and more than 500 employees (Johnston, 2003); however, there are now a number of ERP solutions available on the market and even the main ERP players have solutions that are appropriate for the SME market (Krystkowiak, Bucciarelli & Dubois, 2004; Bielski, 2002). According to the report, "Mid-market Manufacturers and the New Landscape for Enterprise Resource Planning" (2005), "Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are streamlining and automating processes that small manufacturers would have found cumbersome to carry out on a global basis. This process improvement, in turn, allows these manufacturers to extend their geographic reach at lower costs" (p. 3). Therefore, ERP packages provide SME managers with more efficient and effective ways to interconnect geographically dispersed stakeholders and integrate existing information and communication technologies (Blenkhorn & Fleisher, 2001)."

From the Paper
"American Free Enterprise (FE) has its foundation in the principles of free enterprise and capitalism as outlined by Adam Smith in his ground breaking work on economic theory, The Wealth of Nations: "...the basic principles were first laid down in a book published in 1776 by the Scottish economist Adam Smith (1723-1790). Known as The Wealth of Nations...it has often been referred to as ''the bible of capitalism''..."(Shaffer 1). One of the basic tenets of FE as propounded by Adam Smith and as embraced by the United States is that individual people and companies should be allowed to pursue their own enterprise without threat from over-regulation by government and from government intervention."
