Executive Information System(EIS) is a form of computer-based information system designed for supporting management activities and decisions of senior executives. Because it supports executives' strategic planning and decision. EIS requires information system characteristics different from other systems. Data warehouse is a database that is optimized for decision support, and receives data copies from operational systems & external data source automatically. Data warehouse may be an attractive solution for successful EIS implementation. This thesis proposes a comprehensive architecture and implementation alternatives for EIS by the use of data warehouse. An EIS prototype for a real-life case is implemented to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed architecture.
