Popis: Presents a management control system and a management information system for the problem of research administration in a service organization. We assume a centrally managed process with a decentralized resource and operation. A model control system is developed that emulates the management controls in a simplified fashion. The administration process is assumed to be performed as a cascade system with the management function and project implementation function are in parallel. The research administrators and project investigators are connected through the control process and through the information exchange and personal communication process. The management information system is designed to facilitate information flow and improve funds processing from the research administration unit to the investigators. The system was developed on a FoxPro platform through a local area network.
