Enterprise resource planning (ERP) is a class of integrated
software that uses software technologies to implement real-time
management of business processes in an organization. ERPs normally
cut across organizations, making them large and complex. Software
researchers have for many years established that complexity affects
software quality negatively and must therefore be controlled with
novel metrics and models of evaluation that can determine when the
software is at acceptable levels of quality and when not. Metrics
and Models for Evaluating the Quality and Effectiveness of ERP
Software is a critical scholarly publication that examines ERP
development, performance, and challenges in business settings to
help improve decision making in organizations that have embraced
ERPs, improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their activities,
and improve their return on investments (ROI). Highlighting a wide
range of topics such as data mining, higher education, and
security, this book is essential for professionals, software
developers, researchers, academicians, and security professionals.
