The ever changing environment information systems model, and in particular egovernment ones, intensifies the need for systems that are able to easily, efficiently and transparently adapt to changing environments. Accommodating unanticipated changes implies that systems must be able to adapt to changes occurring in and evolve in step with their changing environment. Adaptation is concerned with ...

The way of perceiving the environment is the factor informing on the condition of the environment and its impact on the operation of enterprises whereas the impact on the operation is the factor determining how enterprises operate in realities where there is no place for atomized actions of isolated enterprises and the impact of the environment and relationships with its constituents and all fo...

transformational change the world has ever seen. The business and social environment is complex, dynamic and turbulent, which means that today’s success formula can become tomorrow’s liability nearly overnight. Thriving or even surviving in this context requires a fundamental re-thinking of the meaning and application of our most basic assumptions about leading, and managing, business growth an...

The benefit of modeling and simulation in rail transit operations has been demonstrated in various studies. However, the complex dynamics involved and the ever-changing environment in which rail systems evolve expose the limits of classical simulation. Changing environmental conditions and second order dynamics challenge the validity of the models and seriously reduce model (re-)usability. This...
