Handbook on Architectures of Information Systems
An authoritative source about methods, languages, methodologies and supporting tools for constructing information systems that also provides examples for references models. Its strength is the careful selection of each of the above mentioned components, based on technical merit. The second edition completely revises all articles and features new material on the latest developments in XML & UML. The structure follows the definition of the major components of Enterprise Integration as defined by GERAM (Generalised Enterprise Reference Architecture and Methodology). 1st edition sold about 600 copies since January 2003.
The Art of Structuring
Structuring, or, as it is referred to in the title of this book, the art of structuring, is one of the core elements in the discipline of Information Systems. While the world is becoming increasingly complex, and a growing number of disciplines are evolving to help make it a better place, structure is what is needed in order to understand and combine the various perspectives and approaches involved. Structure is the essential component that allows us to bridge the gaps between these different worlds, and offers a medium for communication and exchange. The contributions in this book build these bridges, which are vital in order to communicate between different worlds of thought and methodology – be it between Information Systems (IS) research and practice, or between IS research and other research disciplines. They describe how structuring can be and should be done so as to foster communication and collaboration. The topics covered reflect various layers of structure that can serve as bridges: models, processes, data, organizations, and technologies. In turn, these aspects are complemented by visionary outlooks on how structure influences the field.
Service-Oriented Computing. ICSOC/ServiceWave 2009 Workshops
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Workshops on Service-Oriented Computing, ICSOC/ServiceWave 2009, held in Stockholm, Sweden, in November 2009. The book includes papers of workshops on trends in enterprise architecture research (TEAR 2009), SOA, globalization, people, and work (SG-PAW), service oriented computing in logistics (SOC-LOG), non-functional properties and service level agreements management in service oriented computing (NFPSLAM-SOC 09), service monitoring, adaptation and beyond (MONA+), engineering service-oriented applications (WESOA09), and user-generated services (UGS2009). The papers are organized in topical sections on business models and architecture; service quality and service level agreements track; and service engineering track.
Advanced Information Systems Engineering Workshops
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of five international workshops held in Ljubljana, Slovenia, in conjunction with the 28th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, CAiSE 2016, in June 2016. The 16 full and 9 short papers were carefully selected from 51 submissions. The associated workshops were the Third International Workshop on Advances in Services DEsign based on the Notion of CApabiliy (ASDENCA) co-arranged with the First International Workshop on Business Model Dynamics and Information Systems Engineering (BumDISE), the Fourth International Workshop on Cognitive Aspects of Information Systems Engineering (COGNISE), the First International Workshop on Energy-awareness and Big Data Management in Information Systems (EnBIS), the Second International Workshop on Enterprise Modeling (EM), and the Sixth International Workshop on Information Systems Security Engineering (WISSE).
Foundations for a Social Workflow Platform
Sebastian Görg introduces social workflows as a new application domain for Process-Aware Information Systems and draws the design of a social workflow platform that enables private individuals to make use of workflow technology in their everyday lives. Whenever a group of persons works together on a challenging or multifaceted task, a social workflow begins. In textual form, such social workflows are already described and shared in various Internet communities which provide experiential knowledge for achieving different goals, in areas like home repair, vacation trips and computer troubleshooting. The envisioned platform enables its users to construct social workflows according to their specific needs, to share them with a community and to keep track of the execution.
Business Information Systems
This book contains the refereed proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Business Information Systems, BIS 2013, held in Poznań, Poland, in June 2013. The theme of this year's conference was "Business Applications on the Move," reflecting the growing usage of mobile devices in business applications and its repercussions on business processes and information management. The 18 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 52 submissions. They are grouped into six sections on modern enterprises and mobile ERP, business models and BPM, linked data and ontologies, recommendations and content analysis, knowledge discovery, and IT frameworks and systems architecture.
Distributed Information Systems in Business
This book gives answers to the question how distributed information systems can serve management, especially lean management. The authors develop new theoretical insights for the future of decentralized firms and offer concepts for creating and maintaining distributed information systems. The book contains interesting prototypes in logistics and financial industries and shows designs and applications of workflow systems. It offers a state-of-the-art survey of the subject.
User-Centric Application Integration in Enterprise Portal Systems
The ever growing number of application scenarios for IT systems leads to a significant increase in their number and hence to a level of complexity that has grown tremendously in comparison with early IT installations by the mid of the past decade. In numerous attempts to integrate these diverging application stacks, various prominent methods have emerged in the past, most recently the topic of EAI which strives to achieve a consolidated view at diverse application systems. However, the emergence and rise of cloud-based services leads to new challenges to deal with. Usage of offerings from a no further specified cloud appears appealing for IT decision makers since it promises cost savings whi...
Trends in Enterprise Architecture Research and Practice-Driven Research on Enterprise Transformation
This volume constitutes the proceedings of the combined 7th International Workshop on Trends in Enterprise Architecture Research (TEAR 2012) and the 5th Working Conference on Practice-Driven Research on Enterprise Transformation (PRET-5), held in Barcelona, Spain, October 23-24, 2012, and co-located with The Open Group's Conference on Enterprise Architecture, Cloud Computing, and Security. Joining the forces of the two events with The Open Group Conference provided the unique opportunity for an intensive exchange between practitioners as well as for discussions on standardization efforts and academic research in the areas of enterprise transformation and enterprise architecture (EA). Based on careful reviews by at least three Program Committee members, 18 papers were chosen for inclusion in these proceedings. They were presented in six sessions on enterprise architecture management (EAM) effectivity, languages for EA, EAM and the ability to change, advanced topics in EA, governing enterprise transformations, and EA applications.
Geschäftsprozessanalyse
Das Buch gibt eine Einführung in die Geschäftsprozessanalyse mit den beiden Schwerpunkten "Ereignisgesteuerte Prozessketten" (EPK) und "objektorientierte Geschäftsprozessanalyse". Es thematisiert Grundlagen, Chancen und Risiken Betriebswirtschaftlicher Standardsoftware (ERP-Software) und gibt eine umfassende Einführung in ereignisgesteuerte Prozessketten. Die Darstellung wird durch zahlreiche Beispiele aus der Praxis abgerundet. Anschließend wird das Gesamtkonzept der Unternehmensmodellierung für SAP R/3 beschrieben und aufgezeigt, welche zentrale Rolle ereignisgesteuerte Prozessketten dabei spielen. Das Buch stellt Objektorientierung vor und überprüft die objektorientierte Geschäftsprozessmodellierung auf ihre Tauglichkeit für eine effiziente Prozessanalyse. In der Neuauflage wurde der Schwerpunkt auf die Modellierungsmethoden verlagert. Das Kapitel zur objektorientierten Geschäftsprozessmodellierung wurde stark ausgebaut und aktualisiert (UML 2.0) und das EPK-Kapitel um weitere Beispiele erweitert.
