Foundations of Work-Systems Modeling

Abstract: In 2006, the course "Modeling of Organizations" is taught for the third time. This third time will be the second time we will use the new lecture notes "Work Systems Modelling" from the DA VINCI series. These lecture notes, however, will be evolved further hand-in-hand with the actual process of lecturing. In the academic year 2005/2006, a second incarnation of these lecture notes will be created, where the aim is to deliver these lecture notes in three increments. An important step that will be taken in this academic year is the integration of the ICIS Work Systems Modelling lecture notes with the NICI course on Organisational Dynamics. The first results of this integration will start to appear in the second and third trimester.
