Paul Grefen – författare

In Beyond E-Business: Towards Networked Structures Paul Grefen returns with his tried and tested BOAT framework for e-business, now fully expanded and updated with the very latest overview of digitally connected business; from business models, organization structures and architecture, to information technology.

What used to be termed "e-business" is now simply business as usual. Today’s successful organizations are complex; they are part of dynamic business networks built on digital channels, going far beyond traditional e-business. This text provides invaluable insights of modern e-business integrated with networked business, going much further than the usual analysis of traditional e-business texts. Included is coverage of the Big Five—social media, mobile computing, big data, cloud computing, and the internet of things --as well as service-oriented business and technology.

This essential text provides a compact roadmap to networked e-business for engineering, information systems or business students as well as professionals in the field.

Bringing together a diverse set of carefully selected experts, the Handbook features both business and technical perspectives, covering important issues including the models for process design, structures and systems for process execution, process monitoring and analysis, and advanced application domains, highlighting the smart industry and healthcare application domains. Key concerns, techniques, and methods for the design and specification of business processes in the context of digital transformation are explored alongside the structures, architectures, and systems for the implementation of these processes. Ultimately, this Handbook provides the reader with a solid understanding of the state-of-the-art in these two domains.

The Handbook on Business Process Management and Digital Transformation is an essential resource for scholars and students of business management, industrial engineering, information systems, management and sustainability, organizational innovation and behaviour, and technology and ICT. Business professionals and digital technology managers looking to better understand the overall importance of process-oriented digital transformation will equally find this to be a fundamental reference work.

Dynamic Business Process Formation fuses practical needs with theoretical input to present important research innovations in supporting Instant Virtual Enterprises (IVEs). This new organization type brings a combination of business dynamism and explicit business process structure to domains where on-the-fly formation of well-organized business networks is required to deal with the complexity of new products or services under high time pressure.

This book contains the main results of the IST CrossWork project, and, importantly, looks beyond the boundaries of this project and sources input from related projects and general trends in collaborative enterprises and the automotive industry.

Both the business and technical aspects of Virtual Enterprise coordination are covered within the modular structure of the book, which enables readers from different backgrounds to benefit from the book according to their interests.
