Sixth International Workshop on Business/IT Alignment and Interoperability, London, UK
20 June 2011 - 20 June 2011
United Kingdom
The Sixth International Workshop on Business/IT Alignment and Interoperability will take place on 20 June 2011 in London, UK.
Continuous growth of information and communication technologies (ICT) and the impact of these technologies on the modern economy, environment, and social life are difficult to underestimate. ICT-enabled innovations provide organizations with new efficient mechanisms for communication, information sharing, resource management and planning, and help them to explore new market opportunities.
Nowadays, a sustainable competitive advantage is strictly related to capabilities of organizations to anticipate the constantly evolving business and technological environment, where interoperability issues are key success factors at different levels (strategic, organizational, infrastructural).
Information systems have to support these evolutionary challenges while preserving the alignment between business strategies, business processes, and application portfolios.
The event will bring together stakeholders who are active in the field. Topics are set to include:
- methodologies, frameworks, and tools for modeling, validation, and support of business/ICT alignment;
- qualitative and quantitative approaches for measuring business/ICT alignment;
- taxonomies for business/ICT alignment classification;
- business/ICT alignment maturity models;
- constraints and issues associated with business/ICT alignment (e.g. cultural, technical, economical, legal, political, etc.);
- business/ICTalignment in organizational networks, including private and public sector;
- case studies, empirical reports, and industrial surveys illustrating success factors, challenges and failures of alignment.For further information, please visit: http://siti-server01.siti.disco.unimib.it/busital2011/(opens in new window)
