Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

"E business" inextricably aligns technological advances with business models, business repurposing efforts and organizational structures in order to support end to end business processes that span the boundaries of the extended enterprise value chain. Using lots of real world examples, this incisive guide helps people understand the theory and practice of e business today. It offers a thorough examination of the relationship of e business to business strategy, from business models, supply chains and integrated value chains to governance structures. It covers key topics that businesses need to consider with designing an e business strategy, from XML and business processes to electronic intermediaries and markets, e procurement and e business networks. It provides a complete overview of the technical foundations of e business, with discussions of security, middleware, component based development, legacy applications, enterprise application integration, web services and business protocols.

Contraportada:

‘... a comprehensive and state-of-the-art introduction to business-to-business commerce in the new millennium.’
—John Mylopoulos, University of Toronto, Canada

Two significant factors combine to drive the phenomenon of e-Business. Competition constantly motivates companies in their marketplaces, while rapidly developing information technologies offer new opportunities and challenges.

For Mike Papazoglou and Piet Ribbers, both business and technology are integral to e-Business. They demonstrate here how a solid understanding of business, organization, management and technology is crucial to an understanding of what e-Business is today and how it is going to be shaped in the future.

e-Business: Organisational and Technical Foundations focuses on the development of e-Business between and within enterprises. In particular it addresses how enterprises collaborate, what coordination mechanism are necessary and how this is reflected at the technical infrastructure level.

It includes:

• Abundant real-world examples to encourage readers to understand and appreciate real-life
  e-Business
• An analytical and critical approach to understanding business issues, decision-making and technology use and development
• Extensive end of chapter discussion questions and assignments for students
• A companion website at www.wiley.com/go/ebusiness with additional exercises for students and PowerPoint slides and solutions for lecturers

Aimed at advanced Undergraduate and Postgraduate Students in Information Systems, Information Management and Computer Science, this book will also be of use to business and management students, researchers and practitioners.

‘This book represents a shift in our thinking of e-business away from purely technical considerations to a view that that embraces business and technical perspectives. The international examples of business applications and technical exercises will be of great value to students.’
—Professor Christopher P. Holland, Manchester Business School, UK
