Business Modeling and Software Design: 6th International Symposium, BMSD 2016, Rhodes, Greece, June 20-22, 2016, Revised Selected Papers (Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing #275)
by Boris ShishkovThis book contains revised and extended versions of selected papers from the Fifth International Symposium on Business Modeling and Software Design, BMSD 2015, held in Milan, Italy, in July 2015. The symposium was organized and sponsored by the Interdisciplinary Institute for Collaboration and Research on Enterprise Systems and Technology (IICREST), being co-organized by Politecnico di Milano and technically co-sponsored by BPM-D. Cooperating organizations were Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH), the U Twente Center for Telematics and Information Technology (CTIT), the BAS Institute of Mathematics and Informatics (IMI), the Dutch Research School for Information and Knowledge Systems (SIKS), and AMAKOTA Ltd. BMSD 2015 received 57 paper submissions from which 36 papers were selected for publication in the BMSD'15 proceedings. 14 of those papers were selected as full papers. Additional post-symposium reviewing was carried out reflecting both the qualities of the papers and the way they were presented. 10 best papers were selected for the Springer edition (mainly from the BMSD'15 full papers). The 10 papers published in this book were carefully revised and extended (following the reviewers' comments) from the papers presented. The selection considers a large number of BMSD-relevant research topics: from business-processes-related topics, such as process mining and discovery, (dynamic) business process management (and process-aware information systems), and business process models and ontologies (including reflections into the Business Model Canvas); through software-engineering-related topics, such as domain-specific languages and software quality (and technical debt); and semantics-related topics, such as semantic technologies and knowledge management (and knowledge identification); to topics touching upon cloud computing and IT-enabled capabilities for enterprises.

Business Models for Strategic Innovation: Cross-Functional Perspectives (The Annals of Business Research)
by Demetris Vrontis Yaakov Weber Evangelos Tsoukatos S.M. Riad ShamsThis book extends our understanding of how different cross- functional business and management disciplines, such as innovation and entrepreneurship, strategic management, marketing and HRM, individually and collectively underpin innovation in business management. Business Models for Strategic Innovation develops insights from cross-disciplinary business knowledge streams and their cutting edge discipline-specific practical implications to create a cross- functional business innovation management model. Novel cross- disciplinary knowledge plays an imperative role in business innovation and we know that innovative management processes have significant implications for effective cross- functional management. In this context, each chapter of the book presents fresh insights on diverse business knowledge- streams as well as their applied implications on cross- functional business innovation management. Finally, centred on these cross- disciplinary business theories and their cutting edge implications, the last chapter of this book proposes a model of strategic cross- functional business innovation management process. This academically rigorous work uses innovative theoretical propositions and state- of- the- art empirical analysis in order to enable cross- functional management teams to support organisation- wide business innovation processes.
Business Models for the Data Economy
by Ken Gleason Q. Ethan McCallumYou're sitting on a pile of interesting data. How do you transform that into money? It's easy to focus on the contents of the data itself, and to succumb to the (rather unimaginative) idea of simply collecting and reselling it in raw form. While that's certainly profitable right now, you'd do well to explore other opportunities if you expect to be in the data business long-term.In this paper, we'll share a framework we developed around monetizing data. We'll show you how to think beyond pure collection and storage, to move up the value chain and consider longer-term opportunities.
Business Models: Innovation, Digital Transformation, and Analytics (Data Analytics Applications)
by Iwona Otola Marlena GrabowskaSince the beginning of time, running a business has involved using logic by which the business operates. This logic is called the business model in management science, which increasingly is focusing on issues surrounding business models. Research trends related to business models include value creation, value chain operationalization, and social and ecological aspects, as well as innovation and digital transformation. Business Models: Innovation, Digital Transformation, and Analytics examines how innovation, digital transformation, and the composition of value affect the existence and development of business models. The book starts by addressing the conceptual development of business models and by discussing the essence of innovation in those models. Chapters in the book investigate how: Business models can analyze digital transformation scenarios Individual business model elements effect selected performance measures as well as how the elements are significant for the enterprise value composition The environment effects the profitability of the high-growth enterprise business models Employer branding business models are perceived by the generation Z workforce To implement responsible business models in the enterprise Cyber risk is captured in business models Decision algorithms are important to business analytics This book is a compendium of knowledge about the use of business models in the context of innovative activities, digital transformation, and value composition. It attempts to combine the theory and practice and offers a look at business models currently used in companies, especially high-growth enterprises, in various countries of the world and indicates the prospects for their development.

Business Process Crowdsourcing: Concept, Ontology And Decision Support (Progress in IS)
by Nguyen Hoang ThuanThis book conceptualises and develops crowdsourcing as an organisational business process. It argues that although for many organisations crowdsourcing still implies an immature one-off endeavour, when developed to a more repeatable business process it can harness innovation and agility. The book offers a process model to guide organisations towards the establishment of business process crowdsourcing (BPC), and empirically showcases and evaluates the model using two current major crowdsourcing projects. In order to consolidate the domain knowledge, the BPC model is turned into a heavyweight ontology capturing the concepts, hierarchical relationships and decision-making relationships necessary to establish crowdsourcing as a business process in an organisation. Lastly, based on the ontology it presents a decision tool that provides advice on making informed decisions about the performance of business process crowdsourcing activities.
Business Process Driven SOA using BPMN and BPEL

It also discusses some key concepts using practical examples and business scenarios around Business Rules Management and Business Activity Monitoring with BPM and SOA. This book is for CIOs, executives, SOA project managers, business process analysts, BPM and SOA architects, who are responsible for improving the efficiency of business processes through IT, or for designing SOA. It provides a high-level coverage of business process modeling, but it also gives practical development examples on how to move from model to execution.

Business Process Management Cases Vol. 3: Implementation in Practice
by Jan Vom Brocke Michael Rosemann Jan MendlingBusiness Process Management (BPM) is at a pivotal moment as new opportunities and demands emerge. On the one side, Artificial Intelligence and process mining facilitate entirely new process design and analysis options. On the other hand, organizations are tasked to ensure their business processes are also sustainable, responsible and explainable. In light of this fast moving context, insights into the actual practice of BPM have become indispensable points of reference. The BPM Cases Volume 3 adds 16 new cases to the existing 53 cases from Volumes 1 and 2, bringing the case collection to a total of 69 cases from many well-known organizations across industries and around the world. The focus of Volume 3 is on the return on BPM, its operationalization in light of constraints (e.g., data inaccuracies), scaling BPM across an organization and how to blend BPM into unique cultural settings. The cases show among others how to apply process mining to generate business value and how data-led BPM ensures evidence-based ways to manage processes.
