There is no single approach to modelling and model-based systems development that is best for all possible situations. Therefore, a high-level overview is needed in order to evaluate the options and identify the optimal approach. This unique textbook/reference introduces and describes in detail the SEQUAL framework for understanding the quality of models and modelling languages, including the numerous specialisations of the generic framework, and the various ways in which this can be used for different applications. Examples are provided from the application of SEQUAL in industrial and governmental settings. Topics and features: Contains case studies, chapter summaries, review questions, problems and exercises throughout the text, in addition to Appendices on terminology and abbreviations Presents a thorough introduction to the most important concepts in conceptual modelling, including the underlying philosophical outlook on the quality of models Describes the basic tasks and model types in information systems development and evolution, and the main methodologies for mixing different phases of information system development Provides an overview of the general mechanisms and perspectives used in conceptual modelling Predicts future trends in technological development, and discusses how the role of modelling can be envisaged in this landscape This didactic guide is essential reading for postgraduate students of computer science, software engineering and information systems wishing to learn more about conceptual modelling in their preparation for professional practice. Developers of information systems will also find the book an ideal reference to support their professional activity. Dr. John Krogstie is a Professor of Information Systems in the Department of Computer and Information Science at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway.

Mobile Information Systems Edited by Elaine Lawrence, Barbara Pernici, John Krogstie Mobility is perhaps the most important market and technological trend within information and communication technology. With the advent of new mobile infrastructures providing higher bandwidth and constant connection to the network from virtually everywhere, the way people use information resources is predicted to be radically transformed. The rapid developments in information technology (IT), particularly communication and collaboration technologies, are substantially changing the landscape of organizational computing. Workers in any business area are becoming increasingly mobile. Workers in an increasing number of areas will be required to act flexibly within the constraints of the business processes of the company (or companies) for which they are currently working. At the same time they will often want to use the same information technology to support their private tasks. Over the last years, a new breed of information systems has appeared to address this emerging situation, referred to as mCommerce systems or mobile information systems. This book contains the proceedings of the IFIP TC8 Working Conference on Mobile Information Systems, which was held in September 2004 in Oslo, Norway and sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP). Mobile Information Systems aims to: Clarify differences and similarities between the development of mobile vs. more traditional information system. Investigate the organizational impact of mobile information systems Investigate mCommerce relative to eCommerce Investigate mobile commerce applications combined with the advantages of mobile communications technologies, the drivers of which have been identified as ubiquity, reachability, security, convenience, localization, instant connectivity and personalization. Evaluate existing and newly developed approaches for analysis, design, implementation, and evolution of mobile information systems. Investigate technical issues and the constraints they pose on mobile information systems functionalities and design.
