Abstract
Factors which influence computer-based information systems The design and implementation of computer-based information systems have for a long time (and in some organizations are still being) accepted as primarily technical activities. As a result of this attitude about technology, the fact that practically all computer-based systems exist within the context of an organization has been largely ignored. From the literature it has emerged that many computer-based information systems have failed, not necessarily as a result of poor technical quality, but because certain other important aspects, which determine the success or the failure of a computer-based system have been left out of account. As a result of a research project, it will be shown in this paper which factors are the most important in their contribution to the success of computer-based systems.

The design and implementation of computer-based information systems have for a long time accepted as primarily technical activities
Summary The central problem in this research project amounts to the fact that the design and implementation of computer-based information systems have for a long time accepted as being primarily technical activities
The aim of this study may be summed up in the four main points viz.: (i) to investigate the use of computer-based information systems and their success as perceived by the user; (ii) to determine which factors make the largest contribution to the success of computerized systems; (iii) to determine, by means of optimizing methods which factors are the most important to change, so that the performance of the information systems may be optimally improved; and (iv) to formulate a model which would enable the management of an organization to apply capital in such a way that the computerized systems may provide optimum performance
Summary
Hipotetlese navorsingsmodel Deur 'n beskrywende model van veranderlikes1·P· 129 (Figuur 1) te gebruik, is daar met behulp van BMDP-programmatuur[2] korrelasie- en regressiemetodes gebruik om ondersoek in te stel na lineere verbande tussen sekere veranderlikes in die model (paragraaf 4). Die sleutelveranderlikes in die model, wat uit 'n gebruikers- en bestuurderskomponent bestaan, is sukses van gerekenariseerde stelsels. Merk op dat in die model en die bespreking verder die simbole K,, C,, ens. Gebruik is vir 'n korter skryfwyse vir die veranderlikes soos beskryf in die ooreenstemmende blokkie in die diagram. 'n Onderskrif 1 saam met die veranderlike simbool dui op veranderlikes wat betrekking het op gewone gebruikers, terwyl die onderskrif 2 dui op veranderlikes wat op die bestuur van die organisasie betrekking het Merk op dat in die model en die bespreking verder die simbole K,, C,, ens. gebruik is vir 'n korter skryfwyse vir die veranderlikes soos beskryf in die ooreenstemmende blokkie in die diagram. 'n Onderskrif 1 saam met die veranderlike simbool dui op veranderlikes wat betrekking het op gewone gebruikers, terwyl die onderskrif 2 dui op veranderlikes wat op die bestuur van die organisasie betrekking het
