Information Modelling and Knowledge Bases V
This is the fifth volume in a sub-series based on the joint effort of Nordic and Japanese scientists in the field of information modelling and knowledge bases.
Dynamics and Change in Organizations
Organizational Semiotics occupies an important niche in the research community of human communication and information systems. It opens up new ways of understanding the functioning of information and information resources in organised behaviour. In recent years, a numberof workshops and conferences have provided researchers and practitioners opportunities to discuss their theories, methods and practices and to assess the benefits and potential of this approach. Literature in this field is much in demand but still difficult to find, so we are pleased to offer a third volume in the miniseries of Studies in Organizational Semiotics. This book is based on the papers and discussions of the fifth ...
Spaceplane HERMES
This is the first comprehensive book on the European Hermes program. It tells the fascinating story of how Europe aimed for an independent manned spaceflight capability which was to complement US and Soviet/Russian space activities. In 1975, France decided to expand its plans for automated satellites for materials processing to include the development of a small 10 ton spaceplane to be launched on top of a future heavy-lifting Ariane rocket. This Hermes spaceplane would give Europe its own human spaceflight capability for shuttling crews between Earth and space stations. The European Space Agency backed the proposal. Unfortunately, after detailed studies, the project was cancelled in 1993. I...
Digitalisation, Innovation, and Transformation
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 18th IFIP WG 8.1 International Conference on Informatics and Semiotics in Organisations, ICISO 2018, held in Reading, UK, in July 2018. The 30 full papers and 4 posters presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 38 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: organisational semiotics: theory and application; digital business ecosystems and value networks; socially aware knowledge engineering; and business intelligence and analytics.
Virtual, Distributed and Flexible Organisations
Organisational Semiotics offers an effective approach to analysing organisations and modelling organisational behaviour. The methods and techniques derived from Organisational Semiotics enable us to study the organisation by examining how information is created and used for communication, coordination and performance of actions towards organisational objectives. The latest development of the young discipline and its applications have been reported in this book, which provides a useful guide and a valuable reference to anyone working in the areas of organisational study and information systems development.
Service Science and Knowledge Innovation
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th IFIP WG 8.1 International Conference on Informatics and Semiotics in Organisations, ICISO 2014, held in Shanghai, China, in May 2014. The 39 revised papers presented at the main conference were carefully reviewed and selected from 88 submissions. Additionally, 10 papers were selected for presentation at two workshops held in the framework of ICISO 2014. The papers have been organized in the following topical sections: organizational semiotics: theory and concepts; organizational semiotics and applications; finance and service science; enterprise architecture; modelling and simulation and decision making and knowledge management. The last two sections contain papers from the Workshop on e-Health, the New Frontier of Service Science Innovation and the International Workshop on Information Engineering and Management.
Socially Aware Organisations and Technologies. Impact and Challenges
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 17th IFIP WG 8.1 International Conference on Informatics and Semiotics in Organisations, ICISO 2016, held in Campinas, Brazil, in August 2016. The 16 full papers and 9 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 30 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: organisational semiotics: theory and research; semiotics of interactions and socially aware user interface design; digital business ecosystems; knowledge management and engineering; and trends, challenges and new issues in education, health and eScience systems.
Dynamics and Terminology
The urge to understand all aspects of human experience more and better seems to be one of the motives underlying cognitive development in many domains of human existence. Understanding more and better is at the basis of knowledge creation and extension. One way of getting access to how understanding comes about and how knowledge is the result of a continuous dynamics of understanding and misunderstanding is by studying the cognitive potential and the development of natural language(s) and more particularly of terminology, in specialized domains. In this volume on dynamics and terminology, thirteen contributors illustrate that human cognition is a dynamic process in a variety of socio-cogniti...
