企业系统(ES),也称为企业信息系统(EIS),在过去的二十年中变得越来越流行,因为它集成和扩展了业务流程,跨越了业务功能和公司的界限。随着全球供应链和激烈的竞争,有必要适当的ES整合企业在供应链环境中实现效率,能力和竞争力的目标。毫无疑问,ES正在对全球业务产生重要的长期战略影响。由于这一主题的重要性,有一个对ES的研究,以提供有关ES的设计,实施和管理的问题,挑战和解决方案的见解越来越多的需求。为了满足学术研究人员和实践者交流研究成果的市场需求,自2013年以来举办了一系列会议,称为企业系统国际会议(ICES)。ICES由IEEE系统、人和控制论学会企业信息系统技术委员会、IEEE系统、人和控制论学会企业架构和工程技术委员会以及IEEE系统、人和控制论学会南非分会共同赞助。第一届国际海洋考察理事会,即2013年国际海洋考察理事会,在南非开普敦成功举行。第二届ICES 2014在中国上海举行。这期企业信息系统特刊介绍了在中国上海举行的ICES 2014中的九篇论文的扩展版本。这期特刊是关于专家系统的最新研究和实践的报道。为了准备这个问题,所有作者都被邀请参加两轮同行评审。每篇论文都以不同的方式强调ES的重要性。目前,许多企业正在考虑实施供需网络(SDN)战略,以获得可持续的竞争优势(Hu et al. 2015)。多功能SDN是一个复杂的非线性系统,强调企业之间的合作和协作。在胡、侯、田、李的论文中,提出了一种基于博弈论和与理想解相似的偏好排序技术的新模型。在题为“基于云计算平台的m-Health监测系统的设计”的论文中,针对移动的健康(m-Health)(Yan et al. 2015),提出了一种基于云计算平台的m-Health监测系统(Cloud-MHMS)的框架,用于实现普适健康监测。近几十年来,企业建模中的业务流程研究一直很流行(Tan et al. 2008; Zhang,Zhao,and Xu 2015)。在题为“企业模式:将业务过程集成到现代服务企业的统一企业模型中”的论文中,作者提出了一种统一的企业建模方法--企业模式(EP),以弥合业务过程模型与企业模型之间的差距。作者提出了一种企业模式描述语言(EPDL),它涵盖了企业模式的基本语言元素,并制定了语言语法和基本抽取规则。此外,他们扩展了业务流程模型和表示法(BPMN)以支持EPDL,称为企业模式的BPMN(BPMN 4 EP)。近几十年来,随着经济全球化的快速发展,供应链管理(SCM)的研究和实践得到了迅速发展(Li 2012)。近年来,供应链管理能力越来越受到从业者和学者的关注(Li et al. 2016)。Shou和Wang在他们的论文《供应链管理者的多维能力:一项实证研究》中,对供应链管理能力的维度进行了探索性研究。作者采用多维标度(MDS)技术分析数据。确定了SCM能力的五个维度:通用技能,功能技能,SCM企业信息系统,2017年第11卷,第1期,1-3 http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/17517575.2016.1201597
Enterprise Systems (ES), also called as Enterprise Information Systems (EIS), has become increasingly popular over the last two decades because it integrates and extends business processes across the boundaries of business functions and corporate walls. With global supply chain and fierce competition in place, there is a need for suitable ES to integrate enterprises in a supply chain environment with the objective for achieving efficiency, competency and competitiveness. There is no doubt that ES is having an important long-term strategic impact on global business. Due to the importance of this subject, there is a growing demand for research on ES to provide insights on issues, challenges and solutions related to the design, implementation and management of ES. To respond to the market needs from both academic researchers and practitioners for communicating research results, a conference series called International Conference on Enterprise Systems (ICES) has been held since 2013. ICES is co-sponsored by the IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society Technical Committee on Enterprise Information Systems, IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society Technical Committee on Enterprise Architecture and Engineering and IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics Society South Africa Chapter. The first ICES, ICES 2013, was successfully held in Cape Town, South Africa. The second ICES, ICES 2014, was held in Shanghai, China. This special issue of Enterprise Information Systems presents expanded versions of nine papers from the ICES 2014 held in Shanghai, China. This special issue is to report on the recent research and practice in ES. To prepare for this issue, all authors were invited to respond to two rounds of peer review. Each paper emphasises the importance of ES in a different way. Currently, many enterprises are considering implementing supply and demand network (SDN) strategies for a sustainable competitive advantage (Hu et al. 2015). A multifunctional SDN is a complex nonlinear system that emphasises cooperation and collaboration among enterprises. In the paper by Hu, Hou, Tian and Li, a novel model based on game theory and Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution is proposed. In the paper entitled ‘The design of an m-Health monitoring system based on a cloud computing platform’, for mobile health (m-Health) (Yan et al. 2015), a framework of a m-Health monitoring system based on the cloud computing platform (Cloud-MHMS) is proposed for implementing pervasive health monitoring. In recent decades, the study on business process in enterprise modelling has been popular (Tan et al. 2008; Zhang, Zhao, and Xu 2015). In the paper entitled ‘Enterprise pattern: integrating the business process into a unified enterprise model of modern service company’, the authors provided a unified enterprise modelling approach named Enterprise Pattern (EP) to bridge the gap between the business process model and the enterprise model. The authors proposed a language named Enterprise Pattern Description Language (EPDL) covering basic language elements of EP, and formulated the language syntax and basic extraction rules. Furthermore, they extended Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) to support EPDL, named BPMN for Enterprise Pattern (BPMN4EP). In recent decades, with the rapid economic globalisation, the research and practice on supply chain management (SCM) has been developing rapidly (Li 2012). SCM competence has attracted increasing attention from both practitioners and scholars in recent years (Li et al. 2016). Shou and Wang, in their paper entitled ‘Multidimensional competences of supply chain managers: an empirical study’, conducted an explorative study on the dimensionality of SCM competence. The authors adopted the multidimensional scaling (MDS) technique to analyse data. Five dimensions of SCM competence were identified: generic skills, functional skills, SCM ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEMS, 2017 VOL. 11, NO. 1, 1–3 http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/17517575.2016.1201597
