Electronic Bill Presentment and Payment (Advanced and Emerging Communications Technologies Series)

Book Description

Electronic bill presentment and payment (EBPP) is revolutionizing the billing process by offering online and real time presentment of bill content and payment choices. EBPP is the easy way of viewing billing status, remittance items, and presenting balances using a universal browser from any location. In contrast to paper-based bills, electronic billing enables service providers to combine billing with advanced customer care and improved customer relationship management. Electronic Bill Presentment and Payment presents the essentials about this new way of viewing and paying bills. The author defines basic business models, such as biller direct and various consolidator model options, allocates the right tools to each of the models, and differentiates between the needs of principal industries. The text describes how to build and implement value added capabilities such as personalization, up-selling, online dispute management, and better control of the accounts payable and receivable process can significantly improve customer care and customer relationship management on behalf of service providers.

Financial Decision-making for Information Professionals.......2000-05-30

Although intended for libraries in general, this text presents financial concepts and managerial accounting techniques that have application both for not-for-profit and private organizations. Information systems and services have grown in size and complexity particularly due to the increase of technology purchases. The many case studies and thoughtful explanations can be used to: trace future cost flows, such as maintenance costs, in order to aid in equipment selection decisions; aid in equipment purchase versus lease decisions; determine the break-even level of a service; and predict the impact of various funding levels on service. This very practical book succeeds in making information professionals intelligent consumers of financial information. Typographical errors in the worked examples can be a distraction, but do not obsure the decision-making conclusions.

From the supplier: The insurance industry cannot ignore the growing impact of electronic commerce, but electronic commerce, because it focuses on speed and automation, may not be conducive to quality. Insurance Value Added Network Services, founded in 1983 to lead the property/casualty insurance industry into the world of electronic commerce, works to assure that, in the pursuit of the benefits of electronic commerce, quality is not lost.

From the supplier: A brainstorming session attended by 50 participants from the insurance and high technology industries that included the chief executive officers of high tech firms offered insight into the affect of computer technology on insurers' strategic planning. Electronic data interchange and imaging technologies will give insurers the ability to reduce work redundancies and allow agencies to reduce their overhead expenses. Technology vendors expressed their concern that consolidation among agencies will reduce the market for their products, thus eliminating economies of scale that permit them to offer lower prices.

Book Description

Many blacks in the workplace face a set of dynamics unique to being African American in a traditionally white, male-dominated world. In this landmark book, authors Ancella Livers and Keith Caver— co-facilitators of the Center for Creative Leadership's African-American Leadership Program for the past five years— explain how the leadership experience for blacks is radically different from the experiences of their white colleagues. These differences, of which most white managers are unaware, can lead to miscues and distortions in communication and ultimately get in the way of effective performance and optimal productivity for organizations. In Leading in Black and White, the authors not only clearly explain how things go wrong, they also provide sensible solutions for both the white manager and the black manager on how to make them right.

Book Description

Jupiter is an extraordinarily colourful and dynamic planet. Over minutes, one can watch tiny shadows cast by its moons slide over its surface; over days and weeks parades of diverse, giant swirling storms can be seen to move and evolve. It is because of this richness of visual and physical properties that Jupiter has intrigued amateur and professional astronomers and has been the goal of several space missions. This highly illustrated volume provides a comprehensive and accessible account of Jupiter and its satellites, synthesising data from amateur and professional astronomers and space missions. It reviews systematic telescopic observations that have stretched over more than a hundred years, in addition to modern observations and theories, and the wealth of data from the Pioneer, Voyager and Ulysses space missions. Many of the hand-drawings and the images from Voyager are presented and analysed here for the first time. As well as a thorough survey of the planet’s atmosphere, this volume presents an up-to-date account of our present knowledge of Jupiter’s satellites and magnetosphere, at a level accessible to the non-specialist. As the first full account of Jupiter for thirty-five years, this volume provides the definitive account of Jupiter for advanced amateur astronomers, professional astronomers and planetary scientists.

A Jovian Trove! A Ticket to Jupiter!.......2004-04-16

Hats off to John Rogers. This book is like a textbook on the planet Jupiter. You could take a semester course on the planet and still not get everything that this book has to offer. Starting with early observations of the planet (17th century and following), we explore the planet's bands and belts (each one getting its own chapter!), the forjmation of spots and storms, chemistry, atmospheric speeds and dynamics, theories about what's beneath the clouds, Jupiter's ring system (discovered by Voyager), the moons (several of them getting whole chapters), on and on and on... The tone is decidedly scientific, but often in a conversational, friendly way, a tone that encourages exploring its knowledge.

My sole complaint about this tome (it's not just a book, but a tome) is its paucity of color illustrations. For as much discussion as the book offers about chemistry and color-sources in the belts, more color would be useful. All the color photos (and there a fair number, I suppose) appear in a sort of color plate appendix at the end of the book, and they're excellent, but few. Anyway, that sums up my reservations.

Besides, the book is otherwise lavishly--and I mean lavishly--illustrated, and with a huge variety of (all black-and-white) material, an important matter for a book about this subject. We get charts, grahps, photos taken in the visible spectrum, under various color filters and also various radiation filters (but reduced to two colors, as I said). Fascinating are the photo sequences which show us spots emerging and developing, merging, evolving. It's mostly in black and white, but the wonderfully fine paper stock provides for great reproduction quality. I don't think there is asingle concept or heading that goe unillustrated. Rogers (the author) employs a great wealth of astronmer's detailed (you'll be surprised) sketches of the planet, in little strip maps that sort of unroll the planet before you. And by collecting these sketches from over the centuries, he offers a longterm history of how the planet has been behaving.

Book Description

This book reviews the current state of knowledge of the atmospheres of the giant gaseous planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The current theories of their formation are reviewed and their recently observed temperature, composition and cloud structures are contrasted and compared with simple thermodynamic, radiative transfer and dynamical models. The instruments and techniques that have been used to remotely measure their atmospheric properties are also reviewed, and the likely development of outer planet observations over the next two decades is outlined.
