....activities produce goods, services or as is the case in the work system described in this paper scientific data. Many work systems we encounter everyday have existed over a long period of time. Improvement of such work systems is often done through business process analysis and reengineering [1]. But managers must also design work systems de novo. One of the challenges of work system design is that work systems are often large and complex and persist over a long period of time. This makes the design process complex and non deterministic. In this paper we describe Brahms, a multiagent ....

....of computer networking on scientific research communities [38, 89] and on the expected effect of digital libraries on the practices of scholarship [32] Finally, no research has been conducted on the concept of NICs. Although much research and current business lore focuses on process improvement [19, 20], we have found no work besides Engelbart s [25] that studies systematic, continuous metaimprovement. The closest concepts are total quality management [35] and the SEI Software Capability Maturity Model [40] The former lacks the emphasis of a continuous (and recursive) meta improvement of an ....

....reuse of activities or tasks that have been specified once in another context. In recent years, the increasing popularity of the term business process (re ) engineering has drawn attention to a number of additional aspects. It is an essential idea of the (re ) engineering paradigm ( HaCh93] Dave93] that the outcome of a process is directed towards a customer be it an external customer or an customer within the firm. The concept of a customer is to emphasize that a process has to be designed to fit the requirements of those who finally pay for the outcome. Furthermore, there is the ....

....how the external perspective, the set of components, the internal perspective and the GSI systems influence each other. The external perspective aims at identifying and explicitly delimiting the scope of the system under development and helps determining the objectives of the development process [1]. Initially this definition of scope and objectives does not necessarily have to be as detailed as a complete service description. This step can be performed in such a way that more detailed specifications are added later in the development process. The system scope can be initially defined, for ....

....Quality Circles, Continuous Improvement, Process Innovation, and Business Process Re Engineering. Regret tably, most of the concepts are descriptive, if not adhoc, and lack a formal model which would enable their consistent application across Furns. Consider business process re engineering [Davenport 93] Hammer Champy 93] It is very much in the guild mold of application; management con sultants are the masters and they impart their knowledge through apprenticeship fo other consultants. The knowl edge of business process re engineering has yet to be for malized and reduced to ....

The questions cover a very board field and include also topics like job responsibilities. 3 The Process Warehouse Business process reengineering has turned functional organisations into process organisations (see [3], 4] In order to gain long term advantages, it is not sufficient merely to reengineer business processes. It is essential that the newly designed business processes are continuously measured and improved. In order to gauge the performance of business processes, a Performance Measurement System ....

Business Processes The ideas of Business Process Reengineering (BPR) were conceived by [25] and [26] By redefining the way tasks are carried out within an enterprise they aim to reduce cost and time, while at the same time improving quality of products and service. To this end, the process as carried out must be recorded using process models and be re defined using process ....

According to [28] the constructs that collectively form the basis of a process model are an agent, i.e. an actor or process participant (human or machine) who performs a process element, a role, ....

....has a much wider set of uses and the application of information technology should be directed to the most constraining business processes. The definition of business process is not always stated clearly in the literature but many contributors cite (and presumably do not disagree with) Davenport [6]. He argues that a process approach. implies a relatively heavy emphasis on improving how work is done, in contrast to a focus on which specific products or services are delivered to customers. In other words, the opportunity costs arise from the processes undertaken within the ....

....on the process as a complete entity from a process owner s point of view. The process owner or manager is an individual concerned with the successful realisation of a complete end to end process, the linking of tasks into one body of work and making sure that the complete process works together [3], 5] Business processes flow through several organisational units and cross a lot of responsibilities; it is obvious that the process reflects the hierarchical structures of the organisation [10] The analysis of this view addresses the organisational structure of a business process and the ....

....(BPR) or Process Innovation organizational problems are increasingly taken into account. For example Davenport writes: Used alone, EDI seldom leads to innovation. Opportunities for innovation lie in combining EDI with changes in the processes that lead up to the generation of transaction. [5]. Other authors also stress these organizational aspects in order to achieve corresponding benefits, see for example [16, 18] A quantitative study to prove this linkage between EDI system integration, organizational change and benefit is still missing.
