- KonferenzbeitragAnalysing dependencies between documentary fragments for the management of mediated communities of action(AIM 2006 – Information Systems and Collaboration: State of the Art and Perspectives (AIM), 2006) Prat, Nicolas; Zacklad, ManuelThis paper focuses on situations where documents serve to coordinate a distributed Community of Action engaged in a common goal-directed activity. In such contexts, a document appears as a set of fragments contributed by various authors. Furthermore, it is possible to analyse the traces of collective activity left in documents. This analysis may serve several purposes. Among other things, it may be used to understand the evolution of the cognitive and social dynamics of the community. After justifying the choice of the DofA (Documents for Action) conceptual framework, we elaborate a UML-based model of DofA. We use this model as a structure for conceptually representing traces of mediated collective activities. We pursue with the issue of dependency analysis and measurement, which leads us to propose specific dependencies in the context of DofA. We illustrate the early steps of an application to a scenario of collective writing. Finally, we discuss further research directions suggested by our approach, which analyses and measures dependencies from traces of mediated collective activity.
- KonferenzbeitragAnalysis of collaborative tools usages in heterogeneous contexts.(AIM 2006 – Information Systems and Collaboration: State of the Art and Perspectives (AIM), 2006) Ouni, Ali; Bocquet, Jean-Claude; Bonnivard, DanieleSituations of collaborative working are more and more complex and various in organizations. Such diversification is little studied in the literature. Researches about °technologies usages° in °collaborative situations° mainly focus on specific contexts where a given group is using a specific technology. In this paper, we focus on the richness of a real world environnement of collaboration technologies' implementation, where different groups are working in various contexts (profession, localizations, tasks, etc) and using different tools. We propose a model to analyze usages and to bring with patterns in such complexity. First, we propose a brief introduction about the notion of "usage". In the second section, we present a research framework obtained by the integration of elements from different models and disciplines. The model was applied to analyze collaborative work tools usage in a French automotive company. As result, this study allowed us to map a global tools usage description, identify user groups' configurations, their needs, practices and usages.
- KonferenzbeitragBPMN extension for business process monitoring(Enterprise modelling and information systems architectures - EMISA 2014, 2014) Baumgraß, Anne; Herzberg, Nico; Meyer, Andreas; Weske, MathiasThe execution of business processes generates a lot of data representing happenings (also called events) that may be utilized for process monitoring and analysis. This, however, is not supported by typical Business Process Management Systems (BPMSs). Especially, in manual executing business process environments, i.e., not driven by a BPMS, the correlation of events to processes for monitoring and analysis is not trivial. At design-time, Process Event Monitoring Points are used in process models to specify the locations, where particular events are expected. Therewith, occurring events can be assigned to a process during run-time. In this paper, we introduce an extension to BPMN, which implements this connection between process models and events. We show applicability of this extension by applying it to a logistics scenario taken from an EU project.
- KonferenzbeitragBusiness process as a service - status and architecture(Enterprise modelling and information systems architectures - EMISA 2014, 2014) Barton, Thomas; Seel, ChristianA Cloud Service is usually classified as Infrastructure as a Service, Platform as a Service or Software as a Service. This classification ist not sufficient, when Business Processes are considered. Therefore, Business Process as a Service (BPaaS) as next level of abstraction is in discussion. BPaaS is already an important topic for analysts and cloud providers. In the scientific community a discussion about BPaaS has been started. This contribution presents a literature analysis of the current state-of-the-art in BPaaS. In order to investigate how a Business Process can be built on top of a cloud service, a prototpye of an external application is presented, which is built on top of a cloud service using a RESTful API. For the realization of BPaaS existing architectures for cloud computing are discussed. A proposal for an advanced Architecture for Business Process as a Service is presented. Based on these findings, a brief outlook on future research questions concerning Business Process as a Service is derived.
- KonferenzbeitragChallenging CSCW in an innovation network context(AIM 2006 – Information Systems and Collaboration: State of the Art and Perspectives (AIM), 2006) Hanser, Damien; Rousseau, AnneToday, innovation networks are economically and technologically accessible [VBE04]; however, managers and members of such organizations notice that success and performance are not automatically given. More to this, practitioners point out that the collaboration processes are the actual challenge in the management of a networked organization. This paper summarizes the results of a research project that addresses these issues. The project aims to identify a set of indicators, leverage factors and software functionalities, which facilitate the management of the collaboration related processes in networks. The outcome is a framework for the analysis of networked organisations that helps to take the right strategic choices.
- KonferenzbeitragChoosing an adequate level of detail in business process modelling(Enterprise modelling and information systems architectures - EMISA 2014, 2014) Nissen, Volker; Heyn, Christian; Termer, FrankIt is a basic matter of business process modelling to determine an adequate level of model detail, a problem which also can be derived from the guidelines of modelling by Becker et al. [BRU00]. In literature, only few recommendations how to solve this problem can be found. In addition they are quite unspecific and have gaps. In this paper, we investigate which measurable factors influence the adequate detail level, and on this basis make proposals for guidelines how it can be determined in a specific application situation.
- KonferenzbeitragCollaboration and technologies: which organizational practices?(AIM 2006 – Information Systems and Collaboration: State of the Art and Perspectives (AIM), 2006) Baujard, CorinneWhile companies are more and more favorable to collaborative approaches between their services, reflections on learning to use technological tools rarely call into question new organizational models. In a field where many impressionistic approaches related to mere trends or finalized developments are to be found, technological tools may contribute to the development of the collaborative capacities of the firms and may also help to better apprehend organizational changes based on technologies. In this context, a comprehensive framework for the adoption of tools and for the functional integration of the company into its environment may be proposed, thanks to a series of interviews carried out with several international companies.
- KonferenzbeitragCollaborative features in French public e-procurement(AIM 2006 – Information Systems and Collaboration: State of the Art and Perspectives (AIM), 2006) Assar, Saïd; Boughzala, Imed; Boughzala, YounèsPublic e-procurement is the use of electronic means for publishing, processing, exchanging and storing all the information related to institutional purchases and provisioning in public organizations. It requires complex technological tools which must comply with legal and organizational constraints. In this paper, we analyse cooperative aspects in public purchase processes through the detailed study and the modelling of a particular purchase procedure. The obtained model is used to identify all the stages and process steps likely to be virtualized1 through the use of electronic collaborative tools. This analysis is then the basis of a critical evaluation of five major e-procurement platforms currently used in France.
- KonferenzbeitragCollaborative information system design(AIM 2006 – Information Systems and Collaboration: State of the Art and Perspectives (AIM), 2006) Bénaben, Frédérick; Touzi, Jihed; Rajsiri, Vatcharaphun; Pingaud, HervéThis article deals with enterprise interoperability in order to propose lines of research about information system design in a collaborative context. The static and dynamic dimensions of collaboration are exposed and discussed. The proposed IS design approach is based on process model translation. This article also presents several perspectives, especially about IS flexibility and process model liability.
