Green information systems (Green IS) are innovative tools that can assist in achieving environmental sustainability. We investigate the manner in which institutional arrangements are brought about during the development of the Vessel Management System (VMS), a Green IS that was developed by a South Australian regulator and used for monitoring compliance with environmental protection legislation...

E-commerce presupposes dynamic and personalized presentation of information. In order to support an effective e-commerce environment, content on the Internet must be flexible and reusable.

This paper describes a general framework for implementing dynamic routing and operational integrity control mechanisms in a Workkow Management System (WMS). The framework consists of three techniques: workkow control matrices, sequence constraints , and event-based constraints. These techniques are described and illustrated by means of example applications. We show how these techniques can expl...
