Perspectives in business informatics research

Meer over het boek

The BIR (Business Informatics Research) conference series began 10 years ago in Rostock, initiated by researchers from Swedish and German universities. Its aim was to establish a global forum for collaboration and idea exchange among business informatics researchers, both senior and junior. Over the years, BIR has evolved into a series of international conferences, primarily held in the Baltic Sea region, including Norway and Iceland. A steering committee maintains the high quality of the proceedings. This year, we are excited to have a renowned international editor publishing selected conference papers. Interest in the conference has grown, with 53 contributions submitted this year, leading to the acceptance of 14 long papers and 4 short papers, alongside additional invited presentations. The selection process was conducted by an International Program Committee, resulting in a collection of engaging papers that tackle significant topics such as knowledge management, ontologies, workflow specifications, databases, and OLAP. The conference commenced with a keynote address by Dr. Klaus Brunnstein from the University of Hamburg, who presented on "The Information Society on the Way to Web 3.0: Perspectives, Opportunities and Risks," a topic that poses challenges for everyone involved.
