These documents are produced and consumed through a variety of documentation processes. These processes involve developers and users working within complex organizational settings, as well as with the focal system under development. These organizational settings facilitate and constrain IS documentation and development efforts in complicated ways. Accordingly, we present, analyze, and compare cases from field studies of three different IS development efforts in a large industrial corporation. Based on these studies, we identify a new set of variables and hypotheses that we believe represent a more plausible set of requirements for IS documentation products and processes in different organizational settings. In this regard, we utilize the concept of viewing IS documentation requirements as hypotheses to be tested, refined, or refuted.","PeriodicalId":338751,"journal":{"name":"Conference on Organizational Computing Systems","volume":"236 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132408854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Technological advances have made these systems feasible using desktop computers and broadband, digital networks. Using a media space over a shared network requires that numerous security and privacy issues be addressed. One advantage of digital media spaces is that properties of the media space can be manipulated so that users feel more comfortable with the technology. This paper details cryptographic techniques which can be used to create a secure and usable media space. This paper also explains the properties of a user interface which would enable users to ensure their level of privacy. This work also details two interface designs which provide users with sophisticated, flexible control of their media space without requiring a detailed understanding of the underlying cryptographic mechanisms.","PeriodicalId":338751,"journal":{"name":"Conference on Organizational Computing Systems","volume":"96 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133713499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There are several studies defining the concept of exception and even providing classifications. However, no studies provide a method for verifying the rules in order to handle exceptions and to achieve the goals set by an organization's rules. In this paper, a model employing a set of unique input/output (UIO) sequences is presented for verifying such rules. The model originally presented for Finite State Machines (FSM) has been modified to include concepts of exception handling and will be used to form a tool usable for verifying exception handling rules in OISs.","PeriodicalId":338751,"journal":{"name":"Conference on Organizational Computing Systems","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130001135","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The unit, based on the principles of Patient Focused Care, provide multiskilled teams using a combination of multi-disciplinary documentation and protocols of care to ensure effective communication takes place without the use of interpretative information systems.","PeriodicalId":338751,"journal":{"name":"Conference on Organizational Computing Systems","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130150025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Procedural changes, performed in an ad hoc manner, can cause inefficiencies, inconsistencies, and catastrophic breakdowns within offices. This paper is concerned with dynamic change to procedures in the context of workflow systems. How can we make workflow systems more flexible and open? We believe that part of the answer lies in the study and solution of the dynamic change problem. In this paper, we use a Petri net formalism to analyze structural change within office procedures. As an example, we define a class of change called “synthetic cut-over change”, and apply our formalism to prove that this class maintains correctness when downsizing occurs.","PeriodicalId":338751,"journal":{"name":"Conference on Organizational Computing Systems","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132975225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Goals are not only used as a starting point of development but serve as criteria to evaluate actions and decisions throughout the design.\u0000We show how business and goal models can be integrated using a common process meta model. An environment to support decision making in the business modelling process has been developed to demonstrate our approach.","PeriodicalId":338751,"journal":{"name":"Conference on Organizational Computing Systems","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124276865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The language is based on an extended version of the situation calculus and incorporates a formal theory of action. Business processes can be viewed as actions (physical or perceptual) that affect the state of affairs or an agent's knowledge of this state. Using GOLOG, business processes can be specified, synthesized and tested for feasibility and consistency. The theoretical framework behind GOLOG includes a solution to the frame problem for perceptual and complex actions, as well as, a formal method for process analysis. The latter uses a solution to the ramification problem for proving the satisfaction or violation of constraints. In case this is not possible, the method proposes strengthenings to the processes' pre- and post-conditions, so that any implementation that meets the process specification, provably guarantees that constraints will not be violated. In this manner, business process reengineering can be assisted by a formal analysis and simulation tool for testing the consistency of the process model.","PeriodicalId":338751,"journal":{"name":"Conference on Organizational Computing Systems","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123827888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
