Welcome to 00lS'01 and Calgary! This is the 7th International
Conference on Object-Oriented Information Systems (OOlS) that focus
on Object-Oriented and Web-Based Frameworks for Information
Systems. In the last few years we've seen significant new
development in this field, from one-off design technologies to
reusable frameworks, and from web applications to bioinformatic
systems. We perceive that information processing is one of the most
important activities of human beings. Object-orientation and
frameworks have been the main-stream technologies for design and
implementation of large-scale and complex information systems.
Recent research advances and industrial innovations in information
systems modeling and Internet applications have explored the new
trends in shifting information system vendors from component and
system developers to services providers. Users of information
systems are increasingly demanding higher performance, mobility,
and personalization in order to realize the dream to access and
obtain necessary information anywhere and anytime. The new
development requires the investigation of new architectures,
frameworks, processes, and inter-connectivity of information
systems at society, organization, team, and personal levels. The
00lS'01 Proceedings has put together a program of 53 papers from
leading researchers and practitioners in the field of object
technology and information systems.
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 main theme
of OOIS 2000 was "Object-Technology and New Business Opportunities"
and focused on research conducted in the area of effective
information systems development for the promotion of e-commerce.
Papers were invited from academics and practitioners. The
thirty-nine papers accepted for oms 2000 are included in these
proceedings. It is nice to see this year that 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.
This volume contains the papers presented at the Intemational
Conference on Object Oriented Information Systems 00lS'94, held at
South Bank University, London, December 19 - 21, 1994. In response
to our call for papers, a total 85 papers from 24 different
countries were submitted. Each paper was evaluated by at least two
Program Committee members and an additional reviewer. Together, we
selected 41 papers for presentation at the conference and inclusion
in the Proceedings. Also included are the keynote addresses by
Peter Gray and Michael Jackson. The other submissions were
recommended for presentation in the poster sessions. Peter Gray,
our invited speaker, evaluates the problems of object-oriented
systems and data independence by looking at how object oriented
database applications are failing to perceive its benefits, and
instead rely too much on encapsulation. He suggests alternative
kinds of object storage to preserve data independence. The second
invited speaker, Michael Jackson describes a way of solving
problems, by focusing directly on the problems themselves, their
components and structures and on the relationships between the
problem and the solution method. He discusses a particular view of
the role of object-orientation in software development.
