Chapter 15, Problem 1RQ
Explanation of Solution
Dimensions for developing international
- The first main dimension for developing international information system infrastructure is the global environment and their business drivers and challenges.
- These are the forces within the environment which business must respond in order to drive the business positively.
- The second dimension includes corporate global strategy.
- These are the ones which are at a top level in order to accommodate local as well as regional issues...
Explanation of Solution
Cultural factors
- The general cultural factors include cultural particularism issues, development of a global culture within a firm, emergence of global social norms, political stability and global knowledge base.
- The cultural particularism factors include the language differences.
- By developing a global culture, the relationship between countries and divisions can be difficult to achieve.
- Emergence of global social norms includes work schedules, time to do business from a distance and so on.
- Political stability is difficult to achieve if a firm wants to expand in a country.
- Global knowledge base is an information system that requires time and effort to build that have positive effects for the firm.
Business factors
- The main business factors include global markets, global production and operations, global coordination and global workforce.
- Global market includes the patterns of consumption of goods which are becoming similar around the world.
- Global production and operations include production facilities which are coordinated at central headquarters thousands of miles away...
Explanation of Solution
Challenges for developing global systems
- The main challenges include cultural particularism, social expectations and political laws.
- Cultural particularism includes regionalism, nationalism, language differences, and different standards for electronic data interchange, email, and telecommunications...
Explanation of Solution
Reason for some firms not planning developing international systems
- The competition has not been powerful enough yet to drive them toward developing international systems for some companies.
- Some other companies lack the global strategy needed for such development, or they have inherited a patchwork of international systems built with outdated technologies and standards...

Java Graphics
(Bonus
In this lab, we'll be practicing what we learned about GUIs, and Mouse events. You will need to
implement the following:
A GUI with a drawing panel. We can click in this panel, and you will capture those clicks as a
Point (see java.awt.Point) in a PointCollection class (you need to build this).
The points need to be represented by circles.
Below the drawing panel, you will need 5 buttons:
O
о
о
○
An input button to register your mouse to the drawing panel.
A show button to paint the points in your collection on the drawing panel.
A button to shift all the points to the left by 50 pixels.
The x position of the points is not allowed to go below zero.
Another button to shift all the points to the right 50 pixels.
"
The x position of the points cannot go further than the
You can implement this GUI in any way you choose. I suggest using the BorderLayout for a panel
containing the buttons, and a GridLayout to hold the drawing panel and button panels.
Regardless of how…
