Grundkurs Geschäftsprozess-Management: Methoden und Werkzeuge für die IT-Praxis: Eine Einführung für Studenten und Praktiker
by Andreas GadatschOhne methodische Grundlagen gibt es keine erfolgreiche Gestaltung und Modellierung von Geschäftsprozessen unter Einsatz betrieblicher Standardsoftware, seien es ERP- oder Workflow-Management-Systeme. Das Buch schlägt die Brücke zwischen den betriebswirtschaftlich-organisatorischen Methoden und deren IT-gestützter Umsetzung. Ausgewählte Praxisbeispiele, Übungen u. v. m. vervollständigen das Werk. Das Buch von Prof. Gadatsch gilt mittlerweile als der "aktuelle Klassiker", DAS maßgebliche Standardwerk zur IT-gestützten Gestaltung von Geschäftsprozessen. Das Buch führt aus einer methodisch-organisatorischen Sicht in das Geschäftsprozessmanagement ein. Neben den rein organisatorischen Aspekten (Prozessanalyse, Prozessmodellierung, Simulation und Restrukturierung der Geschäftsprozesse) wird die technische Unterstützung mit Informationssystemen (ERP-Systeme, Workflow-Management-Systeme u.a.) thematisiert und anhand von Praxisbeispielen vermittelt. Das Werk wurde primär als Lehr- und Übungsbuch für Studenten konzipiert, wird aber auch gerne von Praktikern (Anwender, IT-Experten und Berater) zum „Wissensupdate“ eingesetzt. Einige Kapitel wurden in der 7. Auflage aus Platzgründen entfernt. Angesichts der stärkeren Verbreitung der BPMN-Methode wurde der Abschnitt stärker ausgebaut. Ein Vergleich ausgewählter Modellierungsmethoden erlaubt dem Leser eine Orientierung für den Fall, dass er eine für seinen Anwendungsfall passende Methode auswählen möchte.

Guia para Começar a Fazer Dinheiro com O Bitcoin
by Adidas Wilson John Klebison FerreiraO Bitcoin é uma criptomoeda e um sistema de pagamentos digital criado por um programador desconhecido, ou por um grupo de programadores, sob o nome de Satoshi Nakamoto. Foi lançado como software open-souce em 2009. É um sistema peer-to-peer (ponto-a-ponto), e as transações ocorrem diretamente entre usuários sem a necessidde de um intermediário. Essas transações são verificadas por nodos de rede e registradas em uma espécie de livro público conhecido como blockchain. Uma vez que sistema funciona sem a intervensão de uma entidade central ou administrador superior e único, o bitcoin é chamado de primeira moeda digital descentralizada. Além de poder ser criado como recompensa pela mineração, o bitcoin pode ser trocado por outras moedas, produtos e serviços em qualquer tipo de de mercado.
