Advanced Planning and Optimization Software: Myths, Facts, and User Perceptions (7 Pages)
by Ashfaque Ahmed
Jul 6, 2004 Abstract : Advanced planning optimization (APO) or advanced planning and scheduling (APS), as it is sometimes called, has been creating a lot of confusion and skepticism, albeit for wrong reasons, because of its many publicized failures, especially in tactical and strategic use. The reasons for past failures included lack of training and complex user interfaces among other things. However there is a renewed interest in APO and many vendors are creating easy-to-use systems along with new awareness. This coupled with its profound success in mission critical tasks will result in more users using APO systems.

by Steve McVey
Nov 1, 1999 Abstract : The face of business is rapidly evolving from traditional brick-and-mortar facades to electronic ones. While web businesses spend considerable effort in polishing Internet front ends with sophisticated graphics and animation, they must also give attention to back end fulfillment operations.
