Opis

The Nordic Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAISE) is an annual international conference for users, developers and researchers of information systems technology and methodology. A distinctive characteristic of the CAISE conference series is the objective to appeal to advanced practitioners as well as to researchers, and to promote communication between the two groups. In the second CAISE conference, the programme was divided into two types of sessions that were not run in parallel - Technical Paper sessions, with formally reviewed technical papers, and Practice and Experience sessions, with invited speakers and panel discussions. The proceedings include the formally reviewed technical papers and abstracts of the invited presentations. The technical papers present important international (mainly European) work in Information Systems Engineering within such areas as conceptual modelling, prototyping, requirements engineering, design support, software process modelling, tool design, and tool experiences.
