This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 16th International Conference on Design Science Research in Information Systems and Technology, DESRIST 2021, held in Kristiansand, Norway, in August 2021.*The 24 revised full research papers, included in the volume together with 6 short contributions and 7 prototype papers, were carefully reviewed and selected from 78 submissions. They are organized in the following topical sections: ​impactful sociotechnical design; problem and contribution articulation; design knowledge for reuse; emerging methods and frameworks for DSR; DSR and governance; the new boundaries of DSR.*Apart from the planned on-site event, the hybrid conference model was explored due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

This book discusses the risks, challenges, and opportunities of cross-border work and life from a multidisciplinary and multilevel perspective, including (a) the individual, (b) the social and organizational, and (c) the regional levels, taking into consideration the diverse and multilayered social, economic, technological, and jurisdictional issues involved.Emerging public policies and advanced information technologies (IT) have created new opportunities for work and life that thrive in global value chains and markets. Life, in general, and work, in particular, are increasingly organized across borders of various kinds and are subject to rapid change. At the same time, life and work have been determined by 19th and 20th century infrastructures and technologies. As a consequence, new strategies and measures are required for both physical and virtual work and life spaces.

Kreative, innovative Lösungen für sich ständig ändernde Problemstellungen zu entwickeln ist essentiell wichtig für jedes Unternehmen, jede Branche und damit jede Volkswirtschaft. Am Anfang einer jeden Lösung steht ein Prozess – der kreative Prozess. Nur wer die speziellen Eigenschaften solch kreativer Prozesse kennt und auf den Kontext seiner Unternehmung zu beziehen vermag, ist schlussendlich in der Lage, Kreativität richtig zu managen und damit nachhaltigen Erfolg sicherzustellen. Dieses Buch führt am Beispiel kreativer Branchen, wie der Film- und Fernsehindustrie, in die Natur kreativitätsintensiver Prozesse ein, gibt Managementempfehlungen für den Umgang mit diesen und zeigt Möglichkeiten zur methodischen und softwaretechnischen Unterstützung auf. Im Anschluss werden im Rahmen von Praxisbeiträgen Aspekte von und Erkenntnisse aus der TV-Industrie im Detail diskutiert. Schlussendlich werden gewonnene Erkenntnisse konkret auf weitere Branchen übertragen.

​ Green Business Process Management – Towards the Sustainable Enterprise" consolidates the global state-of-the-art knowledge about how business processes can be managed and improved in light of sustainability objectives. Business organizations, a dominant part of our society, have always been a major contributor to the degradation of our natural environment, through the resource consumption, greenhouse emissions, and wastage production associated with their business processes. In order to lessen their impact on the natural environment, organizations must design and implement environmentally sustainable business processes. Finding solutions to this organizational design problem is the key challenge of Green Business Process Management. This book- discusses the emerging challenges of designing “green” business processes,- presents tools and methods that organizations can use in order to design and implement environmentally sustainable processes, and- provides insights from cases whereorganizations successfully engaged in more sustainable business practices. The book is of relevance to both practitioners and academics who are interested in understanding, designing, and implementing “green” business processes. It also constitutes a valuable resource for students and lecturers in the fields of information systems, management, and sustainable development.Preface by Richard T. Watson
