This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 34th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, CAiSE 2022, which was held in Leuven, Belgium, during June 6-10, 2022. The 31 full papers included in these proceedings were selected from 203 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: Process mining; sustainable and explainable applications; tools and methods to support research and design; process modeling; natural language processing techniques in IS engineering; process monitoring and simulation; graph and network models; model analysis and comprehension; recommender systems; conceptual models, metamodels and taxonomies; and services engineering and digitalization.
This book examines influential ideas within Management Information Systems (MIS). Leading international contributors summarize key topics and explore a variety of issues currently being discussed in the field. They re-visit influential ideas such as socio-technical theory, systems thinking, and structuration theory and demonstrate their relevance to newer ideas such as re-engineering, hybrid management, knowledge workers, and outsourcing. In locating MIS within an interdisciplinary context, particularly in the light of rapid technological changes, this book will form the link between past and future approaches to MIS.
This book constitutes the refereed post-proceedings of the Third IFIP WG 9.7 Conference on the History of Nordic Computing, HiNC3, held in Stockholm, Sweden, in October 2010. The 50 revised full papers presented together with a keynote address and a panel discussion were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers focus on the application and use of ICT and ways in which technical progress affected the conditions of the development and use of ICT systems in the Nordic countries covering a period from around 1970 until the beginning of the 1990s. They are organized in the following topical sections: computerizing public sector industries; computerizing management and financial industries; computerizing art, media, and schools; users and systems development; the making of a Nordic computing industry; Nordic networking; Nordic software development; Nordic research in software and systems development; teaching at Nordic universities; and new historiographical approaches and methodological reflections.
Modern databases and information systems essentially differ from their predecessors. Ontology-based and knowledge-based approaches to system development, UML based IS development methodologies, XML databases and heterogeneous information models have come to the fore. All these fundamental aspects are discussed in this book. This publication contains a collection of 22 high quality papers written by 44 authors. These articles present original results in modern database technologies, database applications, data warehousing, data mining, ontologies, and modern information systems. Special emphasis is put on multimedia database systems, heterogeneous data integration methods, view optimizations, ontology engineering tools, modeling and model transformations (MDA). Theoretical aspects as well as technical development issues are considered. The intended audience for this book is researchers, advanced students and practitioners who are interested in advanced topics on databases and information systems.
This book contains a collection of 24 state-of-the-art contributions in the area of Information Systems Engineering. It was compiled as a tribute to Professor Janis Bubenko on the occasion of his retirement from the University of Stockholm in February 2000. The contributions are arranged in three sections: - Information Society, with such subjects as B2B E-Commerce, human imperfection, stream data management and enterprise modeling - Approaches to Information Systems Engineering, discussing data warehouse development, web-enabled methods, reuse, and meta-data - Concepts for Information Systems, on more fundamental notions such as time, abstraction, co-operation, intention and information All the contributors are well-known and highly reputed scholars in the area of Information Systems Engineering from all over the world.
Recent years have seen an increasing number of research contributions recognizing the importance of human and social aspects in information systems development. However, a lack of knowledge and expertise for dealing with them adequately still exists and this neglect continues to be one of the principal causes of information systems failure.This volume aims to help redress the balance and to place information systems and information systems development into the larger organizational and political context. Contributions have been sourced not only from information system specialists, but also from those involved in reference disciplines including management, sociology, pyschology, computer science, anthropology and philosophy. It is hoped this diversity of input consolidates the book's scope and will stimulate further practical advancements in this field in the future.
