  • Model Curriculum for a Bachelor of Science Program in Business Information Systems Design (BISD 2007)

  • Model Curriculum for a Bachelor of Science Program in Business Information Systems Design (BISD 2010)
    2020
    Co-Authors: Sven Carlsson, Jonas Hedman, Odd Steen
    Abstract:

    Commentators on Information Systems (IS) education have urged the IS community to develop new and alternative IS curricula. The IS 2002 model curriculum has recently been revised. The new IS 2010 curriculum guidelines for undergraduate degree programs in Information Systems [Topi et al. 2010] has a curriculum structure to accommodate the education of several different professional roles within IS. This paper identifies one such role, the Business Information Systems Designer. It presents and argues for a new, integrated Bachelor of Science curriculum for Business Information Systems Design (BISD 2010) to educate for this role. The proposed curriculum focuses on the design and use of IS in Business and has a strong design focus. The education focuses on developing and training a set of capabilities that enables the Business Information Systems Designer to participate in the design of Business and IS in concert. Some examples of capabilities are communication and presentation skills, Business and industry understanding, and high-level modeling. Consequently, the curriculum adopted a capabilities-driven pedagogical model in order to train specific skills. The paper presents the BISD 2010 with its specific expected learning outcomes, structure, and pedagogy, and also how the students should be able to fulfill the learning outcomes. The proposed curriculum differs from much of the current IS model curriculum discussions in a number of respects: (1) it is built on a notion of design, design science, and design as a profession, (2) it is based on a capability driven pedagogical model, (3) the curriculum is modeled for a European higher education context and the Bologna accord, and (4) it is not a model curriculum, but a specific, comprehensive, and ambitious curriculum for a degree program.

  • ICSC - Semantic Adaptation of Business Information Systems Using Human-Centered Business Rule Engines
    2016 IEEE Tenth International Conference on Semantic Computing (ICSC), 2016
    Co-Authors: Jessica Rubart
    Abstract:

    There is a strong need for customizing Business Information Systems, such as ERP or CRM solutions. This paper focuses on emerging decisions and on Business rules to support the decision making. The proposed Business rules can be edited by end users as well as system components. Both -- the users and the system -- shall be able to learn Business rules as well as integrate, and use them intelligently in the Business Information system. In order to address this concern, human-centered Business rule engines are proposed, which integrate data mining support and provide intelligent user interfaces to collaborating users. An underlying ontology is used to specify the vocabulary for the Business rules dependent on the Business Information system. We apply a mapping approach to map the concepts and relationships of the underlying ontology to user-oriented semantic types. Three usage scenarios give some examples of how the presented approach can be used.

  • AMCIS - The GRITICKA Ontology for Modeling Multiagent-Based Integrative Business Information Systems
    2020
    Co-Authors: Hong Zhang, Ram Ramesh, Rajiv Kishore, Raj Sharman
    Abstract:

    While multiagent technology has been widely applied in various Business areas, there is no unified and coherent multiagent system architecture and conceptual grammar for modeling integrative Business Information Systems. In this paper we propose a special-purpose ontology for Multiagent-based Integrative Business Information System (MIBIS) called the GRITICKA ontology that provides a modeling grammar for the MIBIS universe. We hope that this ontology will help in developing ontology-driven MIBIS applications with a high degree of reuse.

  • agile integration modeling language aiml a conceptual modeling grammar for agile integrative Business Information Systems
    Decision Support Systems, 2007
    Co-Authors: Hong Zhang, Raj Sharman, Rajiv Kishore, Ram Ramesh
    Abstract:

    The proliferation of newer agile integrative Business Information Systems (IBIS) environments that use the software agent and the multiagent Systems paradigms has created the need for a common and well-accepted conceptual modeling grammar that can be used to efficiently, precisely, and unambiguously, model agile IBIS Systems at the conceptual level. In this paper, we propose a conceptual modeling grammar termed Agile Integration Modeling Language (AIML) based on established ontological foundation for the multiagent-based integrative Business Information Systems (MIBIS) universe. The AIML grammar provides adequate and precise constructs and semantics for modeling agile integration among participating work Systems in terms of quickly building and dismantling dynamic collaboration relationships among them to respond to fast-changing market needs. The AIML grammar is defined as a formal model using Extended BNF and first order logic, and is elaborated using a running example in the paper. The grammar is also evaluated in terms of its syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic qualities and is found to exhibit a high degree of quality on all these three dimensions. In particular, the pragmatic quality of AIML measured in terms of grammar complexity evaluated using complexity metrics indicates that AIML is much easier to learn and use as compared to the Unified Modeling Language (UML) for modeling agile integration of work Systems in organizations.

  • enterprise integration using the agent paradigm foundations of multi agent based integrative Business Information Systems
    Decision Support Systems, 2006
    Co-Authors: Rajiv Kishore, Hong Zhang, Ram Ramesh
    Abstract:

    Enterprise integration through integrated Business Information Systems (IBIS) is necessary to achieve agility in the current age of hyper-competition. Multi-agent Systems (MAS) provide a new paradigm for IBIS development. In this paper, we review the IBIS modeling and MAS literatures and find that the MAS paradigm provides an excellent approach for modeling and implementing IBIS Systems. We synthesize these two bodies of literature and propose a conceptual framework for multi-agent-based integrative Business Information Systems (MIBIS) and a unified set of eight orthogonal ontological constructs that are minimally required for any conceptual modeling grammar for the MIBIS bounded universe of discourse.
