Development and Evaluation of a Decision Model for DBMS Selection to Support Enterprise Information Portal (EIP)

The past decade has seen an extraordinary increase in the availability and use of DBMS in organizations. Today, DBMS also plays an important role to support Enterprise Information Portal (EIP) applications. However, a task for evaluation and selection from several candidates of DBMS tend to be very...
