Research on Information
Systems at GUC explores the potentials of latest information technology
developments for servicing the objectives of organizations and
their management. Fields of research include service flow management,
semantic web, as well as e-government & e-business.
Semantic
Web for E-Government
Ongoing Project: Access to e-Government Services Employing Semantic Technologies (Access-eGov), Project FP6-2004-27020, funded by the European Commission within the INFORMATION SOCIETY TECHNOLOGIES (IST) Programme.
Target: By employing semantic technologies the Access-eGov project will support semantic interoperability among e-government services across organisational, regional and linguistic borders. For service providers (on all levels of public administration - local, regional, national, and European) Access-eGov will enable introduction of a (new) e-service to the world of e-government interoperability in an easy way. The government service registered in the Access-eGov may be localised, contracted and used automatically through agents and other IT components.

Agile
Development Methods and Organizational Change
Target: how can the user organization relate to and make
use of agile system development methods (e.g. Xtreme Programming)
so that the use perspective impacts the systems development for
the utmost benefit of the user organization?
Approach: an empirical study of a large development project
is conducted to explore in detail questions such as: What is the
origin of the use perspective being presented to developers? Who
are the ‘user representatives’ and how does (s)he produce
‘requirements’ and evaluate (evolving) systems? What
is the origin and life cycle of “User Stories” from
the user organization’s point of view? How do they relate
to an overall vision of the future system? How are UserStories incorporated
in the developed systems? Do the functional tests “verify”
the user story? How are (evolving) systems introduced in the user
organization and how do the results of this evaluation impact the
use perspective and the ‘feed back’ into the development
team?
The research is carried out in cooperation with the Copenhagen Business
School [http://uk.cbs.dk/institutter/konomi/institut_for_informatik]
