Cooperative Information Systems Engineering


Cooperative information systems (CIS) aim at continued cooperativity between user
groups through componentized networks of information systems. Change management
is therefore a definitional part of CIS. We advocate a conceptual modeling strategy
for addressing this task, and illustrate it with experiences gained in WibQuS, a project
aimed at CIS support for Total Quality Management in manufacturing organizations.
These experiences emphasize the role of meta models in focusing the change process.
Specific meta models and supporting environments are presented for : cooperative
business process modeling in distributed organizations; simulation analysis of shortterm
and long-term effects of information flow designs; forward and reverse mappings
between a distributed (relational) system interoperability layer and the information
flow model. Models are not just analyzed at change time, but also support planned
and unplanned information flows at runtime.
