Research And Practical Issues of Enterprise Information Systems

The goal of this conference is to build an IFIP forum among the different Information Systems Communities of the IFIP TC 8 dealing with the increasingly important area of Enterprise Information Systems. The papers in this volume were selected from a pool of 180 papers from over 30 countries. Each paper was thouroughly reviewed by at least two qualified reviewers before being accepted. As an additional feature of CONFENIS the conference organizers invited distinguished scholars to present and discuss special aspects relevant for future applications and research. Such special presentations include: Dr. Prof. Gottfried Vossen, (University of M?nster, Germany), the director of the European Research Center for Information Systems's presentation on service-oriented architecture and Dr. Thomas Li, Director of IBM China Research Laboratory's keynote speech on continual business transformation technology.Tjoa, A.
