Item type:Publication, Problem Solving Patterns in Design Science Research - Learning from Engineering(Università di Verona, Facoltà di Economia, Departimento de Economia Aziendale, 2009-06-08); ;Newell, Susan ;Whitley, Edgar ;Pouloudi, NancyWareham, JonathanWithin information systems the design science research (DSR) paradigm aims at the development of useful artifacts, e.g. models or methods, with which relevant IS problems can be solved. In analogy to the engineering discipline construction processes have been proposed for DSR. Although different phases of such construction processes are explicated in several articles, contributions are missing that propose patterns/principles that support the constructor during the different phases of the construction process. Vaishnavi and Kuechler (2007) address this issue by proposing DSR patterns. Their contribution is a substantial one; however, it does not include comparable pattern approaches from the engineering discipline for the foundation of the proposed patterns. Bearing in mind that DSR has its roots in engineering, it is important to analyze so called problem solving patterns from engineering and to compare them to the DSR patterns. Using this as a basis, it is our research goal to examine whether it is possible to expand the existing DSR patterns to include patterns from engineering. As a result, 14 additional DSR patterns are proposed which originate from engineering, have not been discussed so far, but promise to be useful for DSR in information systemsType:conference paper - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Method versus Model - Two Sides of the Same Coin?(Springer, 2009-06-08); ; ;Bucher, Tobias; Barijs, JosephThis article analyzes the state-of-the-art regarding the development of generic methods and reference models. The analysis shows that the related research disciplines, method engineering and reference modeling, tend to converge. Furthermore, it shows that the differentiation between generic methods and reference models should not be maintained because both artifact types feature activity-oriented elements as well as result-oriented elements. Depending on the artifact type, however, generic methods and reference models vary regarding the relative importance of the activity view and the result view. A generic problem solution (generic term for methods and reference models) can be interpreted as a sequence of activities which aim at the development of results. The insights into the commonalities among generic problem solutions provide the opportunity to define a unified design process in the field of design science research. Implications and unification challenges that are related to such a unified design process are presented at the end of the paper.Type:conference paperScopus© Citations 17 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Networkability in the Health Care Sector - Necessity, Measurement and Systematic Development as the Prerequisites for Increasing the Operational Efficiency of Administrative Processes(2006-12-06); ; The health care sector is characterised by a low division of labour and annually rising costs. In order to increase effectiveness and efficiency, other sectors have implemented a high division of labour and extensive networking, in particular through the use of IT. In the health care sector, however, networking is only progressing at a very slow pace and not along a wide front. While initial approaches to networking already exist at the technical level or for the purpose of process optimisation, holistic approaches are missing. In this article, the authors first show how a generic, holistic framework for designing networked structures can be transferred to the health care sector. Then the concept of networkability and its design objects are introduced. In order to assess networkability, the use of development levels for design objects is proposed so that a maturity stage model can be derived on this basis for the various players in the health care sector. Thereafter the results of an expert workshop regarding the main design objects which determine networkability in the health care sector are presented. The article concludes with a description of the procedure for validating and further developing the findings obtained.Type:conference paper - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Situational Change Engineering in Healthcare(Ges. für Informatik, 2006-10-12); ; ;Stormer, Henrik ;Meier, AndreasSchumacher, MichaelMany developed countries are confronted with continuously increasinghealthcare costs. Most administrations believe that a fundamental reorganization ofthe healthcare sector is inevitable. Transformation processes are often enabled byinformation and communication technologies. For healthcare, a plethora of eHealthstrategies have been proposed, many of them being aimed at reducing healthcarecosts by optimizing administrative processes. Although lots of strategies have beenproposed, there is a lack of clear guideline for setting up transformation projectssuccessfully. Since many healthcare systems are characterized by a high degree aufautonomy and many local regulations, a situational approach for setting uptransformation projects is necessary. In change management as well as in methodengineering, situational approaches have been proposed. But there are fewpublications on how to combine situational change management with situationalmethod engineering. Regarding applying such an approach to healthcare, there isno work at all. Therefore the aim of this paper is to propose a "situational changeengineering' framework for the healthcare sector. Three steps are essential: (1) toclassify change projects in the healthcare sector with regard to certaintransformation attributes, (2) to identify reusable method fragments that have beendeployed in change projects of a certain type, and (3) to develop a procedure whichcreates a situational method from appropriate method fragments for the respectivetype of change. In addition to outlining this approach, a hypothesis for the first stepis presented, i.e. a scheme is developed to classify change projects in the healthcaresector. The paper ends with a recommendation for implementing the "situationalchange engineering' framework in the healthcare sector.Type:conference paperJournal:Lecture Notes in InformaticsVolume:P-91
