Description
This second book devoted entirely to the theme of information system concepts contributes to the development of the conceptual foundation of information systems. This issue has, in recent years, become extremely important for improving communication amongst researchers, teachers and practitioners in this rapidly evolving field. The spectrum of the papers included here extends from modelling of information systems, topics and problems, via fundamental issues and concepts, to some special aspects of information systems including various novel views and insights.
