to understand the importance of managing documents to their
operations along with presentation of document content to
facilitate business planning and operations support. This book

covering document creation to Web publication.
Featuring contributions from prominent thinkers and researchers,
this volume in the "Advances in Management Information Systems"
series provides a rich set of conceptual, empirical, and
introspective studies that epitomize fundamental knowledge in the
area of Business Process Transformation. Processes are interpreted
broadly to include operational and managerial processes within and
between organizations, as well as those involved in knowledge
generation. Transformation includes radical and incremental change,
its conduct, management, and outcome. The editors and contributing
authors pay close attention to the role of IS organizations and
information technologies in facilitating business process
transformation. Each chapter places major emphasis on clearly
articulating the "knowledge" generated, both theoretical and
applied. The book incorporates case studies and tables throughout,
and provides fundamental grounding for any stakeholder of business
process transformation.

Information technology (IT) use has become essential to how
individuals interact with the world. From ordering meals to taking
classes or consulting a physician, so many aspects of daily life
are bound up with IT that effective participation in the world
demands IT use. The ubiquity of IT in work and personal lives has
created a shift from IT as a tool to IT as a basis of identity
formation and verification, making it fundamental to how we see
ourselves and act in the world. The essential role of IT use in all
aspects of daily life and social interactions has drawn information
systems (IS) researchers' focus to identity issues. In this stream,
IS scholars have examined IT implementation and usage as a
determinant of identity, a medium for communicating and protecting
identities, and how identities influence IT use. In recent years,
IT use as identity has garnered interest. The IS literature on
identity is rich and varied. There is substantial research interest
in understanding the complex and constantly changing relationship
between people and IT. To facilitate new theorizing, this monograph
provides a review of diverse perspectives on IT use and identity.
This work reviews 90 conceptual and empirical IS studies and
identifies major themes, examines their theoretical foundations,
and suggests an agenda for future research on IT use and identity.
Global competition, sluggish economies and the potential offered by
emerging technologies have pushed firms to fundamentally rethink
their business processes. Business Process Reengineering (BPR) has
become recognized as a means to restructure aging bureaucratized
processes to achieve the strategic objectives of increased
efficiency, reduced costs, improved quality and greater customer
satisfaction. Business Process Change: Reengineering Concepts,
Methods and Technologies provides extensive coverage of the
organizational, managerial and technical concepts related to
business process change.
Among some of the topics included in this book are: process
change components; enablers of process change; methodologies,
techniques and tools; team-based management; effective adoption of
BPR.
