SCOPE:
New object-oriented technologies have been conceived and implemented
over the past decade in order to manage complexity inherent in
information systems development. Research has spanned from information
systems modelling languages (UML and OML) to databases (ODMG), from
programming languages (Java) to middleware technology (CORBA). A more
widespread use of the Internet has led to the emergence and integration
of various other technologies, such as XML and database connectivity
tools, allowing businesses to access and exchange information over the
Internet. The shift from centralised to distributed systems and the
widespread access and use of the Internet has allowed the advent of new
opportunities for businesses to exploit in the form of e-commerce. The
main theme of OOIS 2000 is "Object-Technology and New Business
Opportunities" and focuses on research conducted in the area of
effective information systems development for the promotion of
e-commerce.
