Excerpt from A Framework of Composite Information Systems for Strategic Advantage

Abstract One important category of strategic applications involves intercorporate linkage or intra-corporate integration. Applications in this category require multiple systems to work together. We refer to this category of Information systems as Composite Information Systems (CIS). This paper presents the research issues and directions we have identified to date that may lead to a comprehensive foundation of CIS. With the systems environment in context, we investigate the strategic, technical, and organizational issues involved in CIS and the corresponding research directions. We are actively building a theory of CIS based on the research directions we have identified.

Key Words: database management systems, organizational information systems, strategic computing, systems development.
