abstract = {Today's economy is a service economy, and an increasing number of services is electronic, i.e. can be ordered and provisioned online. Examples include Internet access, email and Voice over IP. Typically, e-services are offered as bundles consisting of more elementary services, offered by different suppliers, forming a network. This allows for best-of-breed solutions, in which the customer selects the best services from different suppliers to satisfy his need, 

and in which the supplier can focus on his core-competences. 

The research question is then how to compose such a multi-supplier service bundle. In this paper, we argue that first understanding of the context of the service is important. 

We propose a framework of ontologies, called e3family, which can be used to reason about the contextual socio-economical aspects of e-services. This framework can be used to elicit customer's need, to compose service bundles satisfying such a need, and to reason about profitability of the found service provisioning network. We illustrate e3family by presenting two of its core-ontologies: e3value and e3service.},

alignment between organizations operating in a value web - which is a set of organizations who jointly satisfy a customer need - by (1) focusing on the interaction between the organizations in the value web, (2) considering interaction from four different perspectives, and (3) utilizing conceptual modeling techniques for each perspective. By creating inter-organizational alignment 

between the actors in a value web e3alignment ultimately contributes to a sustainable and profitable value web. To actually create alignment, e3alignment iteratively takes three specific steps: (1) identification of alignment issues, (2) solution design, and (3) impact analysis. We tested e3alignment on an industrial strength case study in the Spanish electricity industry.},

abstract = {Distributed generation (DG) of electricity is providing an increasing part of the worldwide electricity supply. At the same time, there is a big potential of demand response resources. When in a geographical area or in the contract portfolio of an energy trader the number of these Distributed Energy Resources (DER) increases, clustered control of DER by common ICT (information and communication technology) systems can add value. Due to the fine-grained and distributed nature of DER, the design of such a system needs to meet heavy requirements, e.g. regarding scalability and openness. Further, these systems need to balance multiple stakes in a multiactor environment. Multiagent systems, especially those based on electronic markets have been identified as key technologies in this respect. This paper presents a multiperspective case study of the design, implementation and performance of such a system for the business case of imbalance reduction in commercial clusters of DER. The benefits of this approach are shown by field experimental results of a real-life DER cluster with an imbalance characteristic dominated by wind electricity production. The approach resulted in substantial imbalance reductions. Further, a thorough analysis of the networked business constellation is given, together with an indication how business modelling techniques can be used to asses the financial feasibility of the business idea.},

We explore these three perspective and modify them, until we find a situation in which 1) the designed IT architecture enables the provision of the e-service and can be implemented in a profitable way by the networked value constellation, and 2) the enterprise under study is positioned in the networked value constellation such that the enterprise can execute its business strategy.

In this paper, we take a multiple perspective approach, by taking a business value perspective (using e3-value ) and an information system perspective (using UML-deployment diagrams) on the case at hand. We present a novel, structured approach to relate both perspectives, thus enabling a financial and technical feasibility assessment of the constellation, using a real-life case study in the field of electricity supply and consumption.},

abstract = {The call for a focus on content in ontology research by Nicola Guarino and Mark Musen in their launching statement of the journal Applied Ontology has quite some implications and ramifications. We reflectively discuss ontology engineering as a scientific discipline, and we put this into the wider perspective of debates in other fields. We claim and argue that ontology is a new scientific method for theory formation. This positioning allows for stronger concepts and techniques for theoretical, empirical and practical validation that in our view are now needed in the field. A prerequisite for this is an emphasis on ontology as a (domain) content oriented concept, rather than as primarily a computer representation notion. We propose that taking domain theories and the associated substantive or content reference of ontologies really seriously as first-class citizens, will actually increase the contribution of ontology engineering to the development 

of scientific method in general. Next, ontologies should develop from the current static representations of relatively stable domain content into actionable 

theories-in-use, and a possible way forward is to build in capabilities for dynamic self-organization of ontologies as service-oriented knowledge utilities that can be delivered over the Web.},

the associated reasoning mechanisms are codified in RDFS to enable software support for need elicitation and service bundling. A case study from the Norwegian energy sector is used to demonstrate how we put our theory into practice.},

abstract = {Semantic Web Services can be seen as remote Problem Solving 

Methods offered via the Web through platform and language independent interfaces. They can be seamlessly integrated to achieve more complex functionality by composing pre-existing software components. Despite technical advantages surrounding Semantic Web Services technologies, their perspective overlooks the commercial aspects of services 

in the real non-IT  world, and is therefore incomplete and limiting. Real-world services business activities such as insurances, medical services, ADSL etc have nowadays an increasing social and economic importance. Important trends are the bundling of services and a growing customer-need orientation. Thus, there is a need for a computational background for describing real-world services and applying knowledge based technologies for reasoning about them: configuring composite services and analysing them from a business perspective.We have developed ontologies and software tools to fill this gap, and applied them to industrial case studies. We present here a case study from the music industry, going from the analysis of a new business scenario to the development of an application called Xena that coordinates IT infrastructures in order 

to provide a profitable service that reflects major business principles. As opposed to currently proposed solutions in the Semantic Web Services community, our system is an automated implementation of a real-world service where important business decisions can be traced back.},

abstract = {A collaborative design of complex real-world services (ranging from plumbing services, transportation, network connectivity and events hosting to insurances and governmental public services) over the WWW requires services to be described as components, the building blocks of a configuration. Defining complex services then becomes a traditional configuration task, where services are seen as components. Reducing the process of defining complex services into a configuration task (as studied in knowledge engineering) implies that it can be supported by information technology, to be used either by service personnel or by customers via the Internet. Furthermore, to facilitate service configuration by customers, it is required that the customer value of services is linked to services or service elements that shall be configured. A subset of the service outcomes, very often intangible, reflects the customer value of a service, in supply-side terms. In this paper we describe the component-like nature of services, in the framework of a service ontology comprising of the customer value (demand-side terms) as well as a supply-side, component-based description of services. We demonstrate the process of configuring or bundling services with a case study on hosting a meeting.},

abstract = {Value chain deconstruction and reconfiguration into new value constellations is a phenomenon impacting many industry sectors. An important strategic issue therefore is the creation and analysis of new networked business models that cut across a variety of enterprise and market actors. In this paper we take up this issue from a design perspective, and consider the construction of networked business models for the emerging case of distributed power generation in the utility industry. We elucidate the role of regulation here: feasibility of new business models in this industry sector appears to be critically dependent on the nature of future regulations even in a so-called deregulated open competitive market. We discuss how our value network modeling approach provides benefits already in a non-quantitative analysis in that (1) it offers a capability to map out new business ideas graphically in a clear and communicable fashion, (2) it clarifies the position of the individual stakeholders in innovative value constellations, and (3) it gives some qualitative directions where critical points and possible opportunities for new business models are to be expected.},

abstract = {Many innovative e-business ideas are hardly understood by their stakeholders when articulated just by words. To create a better, also shared, understanding, and to enhance confidence in the feasibility of such verbal ideas, we have developed a model-based e-business development approach called e3-value . But does a model-based approach really contribute to the development of innovative e-business ideas? To answer this question, we report on an innovative e-business idea about online news provisioning which has been explored using our e3-value approach, and whic h as been implemented afterwards. To see the merits of e3value, were visited this project one-year-and-a-half after 

its implementation. It then shows up that indeed a modeling approach contributes to e-business development, but also some important lessons can be learned to improve our methodology.},

abstract = {Current eCommerce is still mainly characterized by the relatively straightforward trading of commodity goods. Next generation efforts in worldwide information infrastructure, especially the Semantic Web and Web Services, contribute some necessary, but not sufficient, steps on the way to much more advanced business scenarios, such as collaborative design over the Internet of sophisticated goods and services. This paper discusses additional steps needed to achieve collaborative eCommerce concerned with real-world services. First, a component-based description of services and what they contain is needed, such that electronic design and production of services can be simplified to a configuration task: Serviguration. Second, a configurable service approach must be linked with a clear conception of customer value over the Internet, such that it is ultimately expressable in computational terms. We discuss associated requirements and generic components, in the form of a service ontology needed to achieve online configurability of real-world services in a Semantic Web environment.},

the business model, which we call a value model, to enhance the common

an e-business model. We illustrate our modeling approach by a state of the art

abstract = {We define e-business models as conceptual models that show how a network of actors (a value constellation) creates, exchanges and consumes objects of value by performing value adding activities. In this paper we present a semi-formal ontology-based representation of e-business models that is useful in carrying out a preliminary business and requirements analysis. In particular, we show that a small set of generic model deconstruction operators is able to generate design variations on a given e-business model, so that upfront analysis of the characteristics and consequences of a range of alternative e-business models becomes possible. We illustrate our ontology-based e3-value approach by a commercial project on Internet news services.},

We often encounter the view, in research as well as industry practice, that an e-business model is similar to a business process model, and so can be specified using UML activity diagrams or Petri nets. In this paper, we explain why this is a misunderstanding. The root cause is that a business model is not about process but about value exchanged between actors. Failure to make this separation of concerns leads to poor business decision-making and inadequate business requirements.},

abstract = {Digital goods such as music are vulnerable to illegal use over the internet. Technology-driven IT solutions to protection are useful but limited. Instead, we suggest that incentives to legal forms of consumption can be constructed by redesigning how the e-business model for digital content creates consumer value. We present a general framework that enables a quantified utility analysis and clarifies what parameters, technological as well as market ones, influence consumer value. On this basis, we discuss several business scenarios that show how to make the value gap between legal and illegal offerings as large as possible. This analysis 

framework is part of our e3-valueTMmethodology for e-business modelling and decision making in which business and IT considerations are integrated.},

abstract = {Electronic commerce applications have special features compared to conventional information systems. First, because electronic commerce usually involves yet nonexisting business activities, requirements for e-commerce applications have to be created from scratch rather than elicited. Second, design decisions about e-business models and the associated information systems architecture cannot be sequentially made in a decoupled way, because business and technology considerations are strongly linked. On these counts, current methodology for requirements engineering is inadequate for electronic commerce applications. We outline a structured approach to e-commerce requirements creation. This e3-VALUE approach enables one to clarify business model decisions to be made by management, by modelling the end-to-end value activities and exchanges in the e-commerce 

stakeholder network. In addition, this value network model enables system developers to derive high-level requirements concerning the software architecture.},

abstract = {Electronic commerce applications are a challenging new class of information systems. Due to the everincreasing technical possibilities, new, yet undiscovered ways of doing business are possible. Therefore, requirements for e-commerce systems can hardly be elicited but instead need to be created because elicitation requires a dormant view of users on requirements. Also, E-commerce systems are, in contrast to 

other information systems, an intrinsic part of the product or service a company offers to others. Therefore, developing the business model, which represents the offering, and defining the requirements for a supporting e-commerce system, is not a sequential process and, neither can it be done in a decoupled way. Current requirements engineering methodology does not support requirements creation nor deals with information system requirements as an intrinsic part of developing business models. We outline a structured approach to e-commerce requirements creation called e3-VALUE. This approach identifies three views to be developed: (1) the e-business model view, (2) the e-business process view and (3), the esoftware architecture view. We discuss the e-business model view in more detail and discuss a more formal way to represent business models. In our interpretation of business model, the notion of value is a central theme. We illustrate our e3-VALUE by presenting an experience report.},
