This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Conceptual Modeling, ER 2001, held in Tokohama, Japan, in November 2001. The 45 revised full papers presented together with three keynote presentations were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 197 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on spatial databases, spatio-temporal databases, XML, information modeling, database design, data integration, data warehouse, UML, conceptual models, systems design, method reengineering and video databases, workflows, web information systems, applications, and software engineering.
This volume constitutes the proceedings of the Third IFIP WG 8.1 Working Conference on the Practice of Enterprise Modeling, held in Delft, The Netherlands, during November 9-10, 2010. The goal of the conference is both to foster a better understanding of the practice of enterprise modeling and to improve its theoretical foundations. The 17 papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 44 submissions. They reflect the trend for both practitioners and academics to look into domains and conceptualizations addressing dedicated business-oriented topics like business intelligence or domain-driven process families, and thus reach beyond traditional information systems engineering.
This book will provide research communities in Europe and Japan with an overview of scientific results and experiences achieved using innovative methods and approaches in computer science and other disciplines, which have a common interest in understanding and solving problems on information modelling and knowledge bases, as.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Third International Workshop on Engineering Societies in the Agents World, ESAW 2003, held in Madrid, Spain in September 2002. The 20 revised full papers presented were carefully selected from 35 submissions during two rounds of reviewing and improvement. The papers are organized in topical sections on views, models, engineering, and modeling and design.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 23rd International Conference on Perspectives in Business Informatics Research, BIR 2024, which took place in Prague, Czech Republic, in September 2024. The central theme of BIR 2024 was “Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Business Informatics: Opportunities and Challenges”. The 15 full papers and 1 short paper included in these proceedings were carefully reviewed and selected from 43 submissions. They cover different aspects of the discipline and are organized in sections on AI opportunities and challenges; AI applications and use cases in business; business intelligence; business and information systems development; and knowledge and traceability management.
Long heralded as a key guide for medical students, nurses, and allied health professionals, the Essentials of Clinical Examination Handbook, Eighth Edition is a concise yet comprehensive on-the-job reference for history-taking and physical examination, which covers both standard exams and specialty-specific diagnostic approaches. The Handbook has been edited by over 70 students and 60 faculty experts at the University of Toronto. This new edition includes improved evidence-based clinical pearls and succinct summary tables for differential diagnoses and clinical presentations. A companion mobile application has also been developed which features clinical examination checklists that users can use to practice and test themselves on the go. This edition marks its 20th anniversary as a concise, portable, and affordable guide to clinical examination for medical students and allied health professions around the world.
The 19 papers from the June 1999 symposium are a mix of innovative ideas and validation of more widely known techniques. The papers review techniques for defining and analyzing: system behaviors through sets of related scenarios, systems that directly address human or social aspects of requirements engineering, systems from multiple views or perspectives, properties of requirements, and non-functional systems properties, such as performance, security, or costs. Example topics are human errors and system requirements, a strategy for inquiry-driven requirements determination, generating user interface prototypes from scenarios, and prioritization of system changes using cost-benefit and risk assessments.

This book contains 28 research papers selected from the 140 papers presented at the Berlin conference in July 1989. They focus principally on the relationship between the design of information systems on the one hand, and the design of work processes on the other. Important normative questions that need to be addressed in this context include: Where should the (re)design process begin? Should work and organization design drive information system design, or the other way round? Perhaps they are best not separated in this way? Should an information system be designed in a way that enables people to change the distribution of tasks between themselves and the information system? How can the different interests of the various stakeholders be accommodated in an appropriate design of the socio-technical system? Who should perform what tasks in the design process? This book reports on research and experiments with design processes aimed at answering these basic questions.
