Table of Contents

The BIS conference is by now a well-respected event joining international researchers to discuss the wide range of the development, implementation, application and improvement of business applications and systems. It is addressed to the scientific community, people involved in the development of business computer applications, consultants helping to properly implement computer technology and applications in the industry.

THEME OF THE CONFERENCE

Towards flexible, personalized and adaptive business applications

There are trends in many disciplines related to business information systems that share a common goal – making systems more responsive to users’ needs. Having addressed basic functional requirements, the designers and developers are looking for further enhancements of their systems. This is necessary if new markets are to be reached. The more users we intend to support, the lower computing skills may be expected. For example, in the business process management domain solutions have been sought to alleviate the business-IT gap; in information management, ways to organize information have been simplified; in semantic web automatic linking of data is a Holy Grail. However, simplification does not mean homogenization because a typical user does not exist anymore. As a consequence, applications in many areas suffer from changing environments, changing data, or changing people. Computer systems not only should be adaptive and customizable to follow users’ way of thinking but also consider their individual preferences and background knowledge, their context or globally available data. No less important are business related aspects of these solutions. This common denominator of all applications in the scope of interest of BIS leads us to the formulation of the theme for the next BIS conference: Towards flexible, personalized and adaptive business applications.

It is our pleasure to invite you to submit your work to BIS 2011 conference. It will take place in June 2011 in Poznan and will be organized by Poznan University of Economics.

BIS 2011 International Conference invites researchers and practitioners to submit papers that contribute the results of research in Business Information Systems as well as papers that report on industrial IT projects. The Program Committee particularly encourages presentations of practical papers on industrial experience or on the validation of prototype implementations.
