SGER: Collaborative Research: Exploring the Integration of Electronic Commerce in Industry Value Chains: A Focus on the Home Mortgage Service Sector

这个SGER是2002年10月在威尼斯举行的欧盟-美国研讨会的成果。该讲习班的目的是将美国和欧盟的研究人员聚集在一起，他们正在从事与电子工作和电子商务有关的类似项目，并希望开始合作。该SGER将允许美国与欧盟的星星项目合作，该项目涉及数十个案例研究，描绘欧盟成员国各种行业的变化。该项目将重点关注住房抵押贷款服务部门，特别是真实的房地产贷款机构，并将把美国及其一个行业纳入收集。将制定案例研究方案，以便与已经完成的欧盟案例研究进行交叉比较。此外，前往欧盟将允许团队会议和项目目标，方法和分析的协调。

This SGER grew out of an EU-US workshop held in Venice in October, 2002. The intent of that workshop was to bring together researchers from the US with those from the EU who were working on similar projects related to e-work and e-business and who would like to begin to collaborate together. This SGER will allow for US cooperation with the EU's STAR project, which involves the conduct of dozens of case studies mapping change in a variety of industries across member states of the EU. This project will focus on the home mortgage service sector, in particular real estate lenders, and will bring the US and one its industries into the collection. Case study protocols will be developed that will allow for cross-comparison with the EU case studies that have already been completed. In addition, travel to the EU will allow for a team meeting and coordination of project goals, methods, and analysis.
