e-business Management

Vol. 42, No. 3, 2003

Order No. G321-0150
 

Transforming a business into an on demand e-business requires new management procedures. In this issue, eight papers present both the theory and practice of e-business management. Topics include the need for executives to think like systems architects in building businesses, a modeling technique for constructing operational descriptions of a business, an analytic tool to evaluate e-business initiatives, and a method for managing uncertainty with flexibility. Other topics are the reuse of intellectual capital in project planning, a framework for creating strategy, the design of reputation management systems, and the influence of trust on use of the Internet. There is a separate paper on designing for privacy in knowledge management.
