Reusing enterprise models to build platform independent computer models

Information Systems and e-Business Management, 2016

Enterprises use enterprise models to represent and analyse their processes, products, decisions, ... more Enterprises use enterprise models to represent and analyse their processes, products, decisions, organisation, information flows, and so forth. Nevertheless, the enterprise knowledge that exists in enterprise models is not used beyond these purposes. The main goal of this paper is to present a framework that allows enterprises to reuse enterprise models to build software. The framework includes these dimensions: 1) a methodology that guides the use of each dimension in the reutilisation of enterprise models in software generation, 2) a set of metamodels to represent enterprises at CIM level, 3) a modelling guide to make enterprise models using the metamodels proposed in this paper, 4) an extraction algorithm to discriminate the part of the CIM model to reuse; and 5) a set of transformation rules to reuse enterprise models to build computer models. In addition, a case example is shown to validate the work that was carried out and to detect limitations. Response to Reviewers: We have made all the corrections but three. see attach file Powered by Editorial Manager® and ProduXion Manager® from Aries Systems Corporation 1 We have made all the corrections but the following. Honestly, we wish to thank the reviewers for the time they have spent on this paper, as their comments and suggestions have enabled us to improve the paper considerably. Referee 1 comments 28. Description of Use-why the "I" prefix on "IInput, IParameter"? These names are from MDK Proposal. To the best of our knowledge the "I" prefix is to distinguish them from the BRInput. Para starting "The selection of the elements"-talks about selecting elements from CIM (i.e., CIM1, presumably) that must be part of the CIM2 level, but right after the description of the propagation, the text says "that we want to be represented in the PIM-level conceptual model". Is this stated as intended? Yes, because the elements in the CIM2 level are those which are going to be transformed, so they are going to be represented in PIM-level conceptual model. 55. Wondering about the lifecycle of the "exclusive" object. Seems like it could have states like pending, obtained, delivered, billed, paid, etc. Are those considered? These states are not considered explicitly. However some of them can be deduced from the properties of the exclusive. It is pending if photographer property is not set to any value, it is obtained when delivery date property has value for example. 57. Case study analysis and discussion-the section is fairly self-serving, since the evaluation was done by the authors. Would be good to have independent evaluation/assessment of the methodology. It is a good idea. We leave it for a future work. Referee 4 comments As a personal note on the research proper: The justification to use O-O methods is basically that it is popular, well founded and 'a lot of work' has been done with it in this domain. That is as strong as one can say in the scope of the paper. And the general approach outlined here is the only one a skilled engineer could use, given the tools of today. But I believe based on underlying formal issues, that O-O is not capable of doing what is intended here. There is room for a look at first principles, and after the authors have some experience using this method, I encourage them to revisit their basic assumptions. Thank you for your suggestion. We are going to explore other alternatives to OO methods for a future work.

This paper elaborates in detail one of the steps included in the method: the transformation from collaborative process to interoperability processes. The transformation is based on the definition of the concept "rank of interoperability process" that makes it possible to analyse the relationships between three kinds of interoperability processes.

Experiences in the Development of an Information Systems to Support Enterprise Sustainability Course

EDULEARN proceedings, 2017

The Universitat Jaume I (UJI) of Castellón, Spain and the National Distance Education University ... more The Universitat Jaume I (UJI) of Castellón, Spain and the National Distance Education University (UNED) are teaching together the Master's Degree in Corporate Sustainability and Social Responsibility. The main objective is to study the concepts of sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR) and their multiple dimensions in more depth. The course emphasizes the applicability of existing management and assessment tools, the policies and strategies implemented at all organizational levels involving CSR, and the mechanisms for dialogue and interaction with the main stakeholders and interest groups. This master's degree aims to train professionals to practically apply the approach of ethics, sustainability and social and environmental responsibility to existing business models, and to other public and private organizations, such as not-for profit organizations and government public bodies. The master is composed of different courses. One of them is the information systems to support enterprise sustainability course. It equips students with the necessary basic knowledge and competencies they need to design and utilise information systems to support enterprise sustainability effectively and efficiently. The aim of this paper is to describe the course objectives, the target competencies, the course contents, the assessments, and how the teaching methodology and the resources are used to teach the subject.

Any key strategy used for CSR administration must reflect strong and effective communication channels to show CSR efforts. This study analyzes how the top 50 American profitable corporations from the Fortune 500 of 2009 communicate their CSR initiatives to different stakeholders through their corporate websites. To do this, an evaluation framework has been designed to examine features presented in CSR corporate websites.

This tool is named "SeqPacker" because it uses DNA/RNA sequences. In addition, SeqPacker can be seen as a kind of nucleotide chain editor using standardized technologies, nucleotide representation standards, and high platform portability in support of research in Genomic Epidemiology. SeqPacker is written in JAVA as free and stand-alone software for several computer platforms.
