Abstract

New organization forms and ways of conducting business require architectures for enterprise systems that can support and not hinder entrepreneurial activities. Primarily this means that the information flow between both internal as well as cross-enterprise processes must be managed by underlying systems that offer a high level of automation as well as being highly flexible and integrated. In this respect, we present an agile architecture that offers a coherent and high level conceptualisation of the above properties that enterprise information systems should display, consider a number of technologies as potential implementation candidates and demonstrate how the architecture addresses node density, velocity, viscosity and volatility as parameters for managing and controlling the dynamics of information flows.
