Over recent years most business processes have changed in various
dimensions (e. g. , ?exibility, interconnectivity, coordination
style, autonomy) due to market conditions, organizational models,
and usage scenarios of information systems. Frequently, inf-

only seldom de?ned as a well-codi?ed business process. This creates
the need for a so- ware infrastructure that enables ubiquitous
mobile and collaboration systems (UMICS). The anywhere/anytime/any
means paradigm is becoming the major challenge in conceiving,
designing, and releasing next-generation information systems. New
te- nologies, like wi-? networks and 3rd-generation mobile phones,
are offering the infr- tructure to conceive of information systems
as ubiquitous information systems, that is, systems that are
accessible from anywhere, at any time, and with any device.
Ubiquity is not yet another buzzword pushed by emerging
technologies, but is mainly a means to support new business models
and encourage new ways of working. This new wave of UMICS will
exploit the knowledge developed and deployed for conventional
infor- tion systems, but will also need new concepts, models,
methodologies, and supporting technologies to fully exploit the
potentials of the enabling infrastructure and to be ready for the
challenge. Moreover, people need to move across organizational
boundaries and collaborate with others within an organization as
well as between organizations. The ability to query the company's
distributed knowledge base and to cooperate with co-workers is
still a requirement, but mobility brings new access scenarios and
higher complexity.
