Dependability Benchmarking for Oltp Systems $130.64 OnLine Transaction Processing (OLTP) systems are the core of the information systems that support the daily operations of organizations. The nonexistence of a practical way to evaluate dependability attributes, typically leads systems administrators to concentrate on performance tuning and neglect the aspects related to dependability. Transactional systems industry holds a wellestablished infrastructure for performance evaluation, where the benchmarks from the Transactional Performance Processing Council (TPe represent the most successful benchmarking initiative of all computer industry. However, as performance evaluation has been the main focus, there are no dependability benchmarks for OLTP systems. This book addresses the dependability benchmarking problem and presents the DBenchOLTP benchmark. This benchmark specifies the measures and all components required to evaluate and compare performance and dependability in typical transactional systems. The use of DBenchOLTP is demonstrated through the evaluation and comparison of several systems that represent real alternatives for typical transactional environments, such as many ecommerce applications.

Congressional Budgeting: A Representational Perspective $110.68 In Congressional Budgeting, Patrick Fisher analyzes the problems inherent in the congressional budget process, and studies why congress makes the budgetary decisions that it does. In their desire to limit the tyranny of the majority, the framers of the Constitution designed a legislature that would be constrained and deliberate. While the institutional structure of Congress (i.e. bicameralism and the committee system) and American government in general (i.e. separation of powers) make the budget process more difficult, it does not make producing a sensible budget impossible. Fisher argues that it is the representational nature of Congress that makes budgeting such a flawed process. Budgeting requires Congress to compromise parochial interests for the well being of the entire nation, focusing on macrolevel budget decisions. It is the parochial nature of congressional budgeting that is key to understanding the predicament Congress confronts when budgeting.

Budgeting and Organizational Culture $116.3 Recently, public higher education institutions have increasingly turned their attention to incentive based budgeting models as internal resource allocation models. However, these models have been criticized for bringing market forces, competitiveness, and businesslike perceptions into the higher education environment. In recent years, the literature on incentive budgeting systems has grown; mostly, through institutional case studies. However, most of these studies focused on the formal structures and on the financial outcomes. The literature lacks any exploration of the effects that such changes have on an organizations culture. However, incentive based budgeting systems involve more than simply formulas. They also bring a new frame of mind into higher education organizations. Decentralization of the decisionmaking process is one such change that is attached to incentive based budgeting systems. Thus, incentive based budgeting models affect the whole institution, its formal and informal structures as well as its culture. This study focuses on responsibility center management (RCM) and its perceived effects on the culture of decisionmaking at a higher education institution.

Participatory Budgeting and Human Capabilities $93.99 Participatory Budgeting is an experience of direct democracy inspired by the Paris Commune. It promotes the participation of people in local decisions. Notwithstanding that the participation is restricted to the government budget, its tremendous social importance comes from the process of educating people about how they can be active members in the social collective they are part of. This expanded engagement in social activity develops the participants themselves in two ways. First, it develops their awareness and understanding of the entire social environment they are presently part of, far beyond only budgetary matters. This understanding of their subordination and of the block that capitalism imposes on their human goal of self development then serves to motivate them to end their subordination, and to do with the system of capitalism that subordination is an essential part of. Second, this activity begins to develop the social and technical skills necessary for selfgovernance in a nonhierarchical society. Activity such as participatory budgeting thus can serve as the foundation for both the desire and ability to create a different future.
