Enterprise Architects, in their endeavor to achieve Enterprise Integration, have limited guidance on how best to use Enterprise Models and Modeling Tools to support their practice. It is widely recognized that the practice of engineering enterprises needs a number of models, but how to maintain the relation between these models with ease is still a problem. Model interoperability is an issue on multiople counts:
- How to interchange models between enterprise modeling tools?
- How to maintain the interdependencies between models - whether they describe the enterprise on the...

This book records one of the continuous attempts of the IFIP Working Group 8. 2, studying the interaction of information systems and the organization, to explore and understand the shifting boundaries and dependencies between organizational activities and their computer support. The book marks the result of the IFIP WG 8. 2 conference on "Designing Ubiquitous Information Environments: Socio-Technical Issues and Challenges. " Since its inception in the late 1970s, IFIP WG 8. 2 has sought to understand how computer-based information systems interact and must be designed as an integrated part of...

The Semantic Web, that adds a conceptual layer of machine-understand- able metadata to the existing content, will make the content available for processing by intelligent software allowing automatic resource integration and providing interoperability between heterogeneous systems. The Semantic Web is now the most important influence on the development of the Web. Next generation of intelligent applications will be capable to make use of such metadata to perform resource discovery and integration based on its seman- tics. Semantic Web, aims at developing a global environment on top of Web with...

Digital forensics deals with the acquisition, preservation, examination, analysis and presentation of electronic evidence. Networked computing, wireless communications and portable electronic devices have expanded the role of digital forensics beyond traditional computer crime investigations. Practically every crime now involves some aspect of digital evidence; digital forensics provides the techniques and tools to articulate this evidence. Digital forensics also has myriad intelligence applications. Furthermore, it has a vital role in information assurance - investigations of security...

In 1990, members of IFIP Working Group 9.2 were instrumental in producing one of the first books to describe the 'Landscape' of the new phenomena created by the uptake of computerization - the so-called Information Society. Ten years later, at the annual Namur meeting of its Working Group in January 2000, a proposal was made to produce a second book and the brainstorming began. In the time that had passed, the developments in computer technology had brought the Internet within reach of ordinary citizens, and the World Wide Web had spawned a new 'e-industry'. The landscape of the...
