Data platforms enable actors to exchange personal and business data. While data is relevant for any digital platform, data platforms exclusively revolve around data artifacts. This paper argues that the specific characteristics of data artifacts challenge the authors’ understanding of platform openness. Specifically, it is argued that data artifacts are editable, interactive and distributable, which means that the consequences of opening up a data platform extend far beyond the focal platform and its context. From this, the study infers that the scope of platform openness extends beyond the data platform on which data artifacts originate. At the same time, the very nature of data artifacts afford new mechanisms to realize and reduce the risks of openness. New avenues are suggested to study platform openness in the realm of data platforms. These avenues include (1) exploring and incorporating novel consequences of platform openness in a data platform setting, (2) examining new arenas for defining openness beyond a focal platform’s confines, and (3) theorizing the implications of new mechanisms for realizing openness while maintaining apparent control over data artifacts.

数据平台使参与者能够交换个人和业务数据。虽然数据与任何数字平台都息息相关,但数据平台只围绕数据人工制品展开。本文认为,数据人工制品的具体特征挑战了作者对平台开放性的理解。具体来说,本文认为数据人工制品具有可编辑性、交互性和可传播性,这意味着开放数据平台的后果远远超出了重点平台及其背景。由此,本研究推断,平台开放的范围超出了数据工件所产生的数据平台。同时,数据人工制品的性质本身也为实现和降低开放风险提供了新的机制。本文提出了在数据平台领域研究平台开放性的新途径。这些途径包括:(1) 在数据平台环境中探索并纳入平台开放性的新后果;(2) 研究在重点平台范围之外定义开放性的新领域;(3) 理论化实现开放性的新机制的影响,同时保持对数据人工制品的明显控制。

Internet of Things (IoT) solutions are still far from using their enormous potential, partly because misconceptions lead employees to avoid using IoT solutions and stick to established working routines. To shed light on the non-rational perspective of users, which allows for inference on the emergence of cognitive misconceptions, 489 respondents' perceptions of benefits and costs of IoT solutions were analyzed. Using the perspective of “status quo bias”, the qualitative analysis reveals that the perceptions of experienced and inexperienced users partly overlap on benefits such as the reduction of errors and relief of personnel. However, the perceptions also diverge in part, as inexperienced users consider IoT solutions to be gimmicky, fostering mistrust. In addition, inexperienced users overestimate learning phases for interacting with IoT solutions, leading to loss aversion and consequently to cognitive misperceptions. Hence, the study examines the gap between experienced and inexperienced users as a neglected aspect in IoT adoption. Further, identifying relevant drivers for the implementation of IoT solutions at the individual level helps to extend the hitherto technical view of IoT solutions towards a multi-layer approach that includes a holistic, behavioral perspective.

物联网(IoT)解决方案还远远没有发挥出其巨大潜力,部分原因是错误的认知导致员工避免使用物联网解决方案,并坚持既定的工作常规。为了揭示用户的非理性视角,从而推断认知误区的出现,我们分析了 489 名受访者对物联网解决方案的效益和成本的看法。利用 "现状偏差 "的视角,定性分析显示,有经验和无经验用户对减少错误和减轻人员负担等好处的看法有部分重叠。然而,两者的看法也存在部分分歧,因为缺乏经验的用户认为物联网解决方案是噱头,从而产生了不信任。此外,缺乏经验的用户会高估与物联网解决方案互动的学习阶段,导致损失厌恶,进而产生认知误区。因此,本研究将有经验和无经验用户之间的差距视为物联网应用中被忽视的一个方面。此外,从个人层面确定实施物联网解决方案的相关驱动因素,有助于将迄今为止对物联网解决方案的技术观点扩展为包括整体行为观点在内的多层次方法。

Car manufacturers and suppliers in the Automotive industry increasingly face the issue of optimization of highly complex supply chains that need to accommodate each customer's precise demands, requiring a vast array of parts and information to be available at the right place and at the right time. This involves data sharing between organizations, which is hindered by various issues, such as fear of data misappropriation by the data receiver or the involuntary disclosure of business secrets. The paper proposes design principles for a novel type of Inter-Organizational Information System, which addresses these challenges through the technical implementation of data sovereignty. The study reports on an Action Design Research study in the Automotive industry between a car manufacturer and a 1st-tier supplier. It contributes (a) design requirements, (b) design features, (c) an instantiation, and (d) design principles for this type of data sovereign inter-organizational information system.

Human resources are considered a strategic asset for organizations and play a key role in the execution of business processes. Hence, organizations should provide an environment that enables them to operate in an effective and efficient manner. To shape such an environment, an improved understanding and monitoring of the real-life involvement of human resources in processes and the teams in which they operate would be beneficial. Using event data from information systems, process mining can play a role in this respect. Over the years, several human resource mining methods have been developed, i.e., process mining methods that convey insights related to the human resources in a process using an event log. However, there is a lack of a holistic understanding of the breadth of these methods. Against this backdrop, the paper uses a systematic literature review to develop a framework providing an overview of human resource mining use cases. These use cases are classified according to two dimensions: the level of analysis (individual versus multiple human resources) and the focus of analysis (organization-focused versus human-focused). The authors illustrate the versatility of process mining for providing insights into human resources and highlight opportunities for further enriching and extending this area of research to analyze, among other things, how teams of resources can perform better.

人力资源被视为组织的战略资产,在业务流程的执行中发挥着关键作用。因此,各组织应提供一种环境,使他们能够以有效和高效的方式运作。要塑造这样一种环境,就必须更好地了解和监测人力资源在流程中的实际参与情况以及他们所在的团队。利用信息系统中的事件数据,流程挖掘可以在这方面发挥作用。多年来,已经开发出几种人力资源挖掘方法,即利用事件日志传达与流程中人力资源相关的见解的流程挖掘方法。然而,人们对这些方法的广度缺乏整体认识。在此背景下,本文通过系统的文献综述,建立了一个概述人力资源挖掘用例的框架。这些用例按照两个维度进行分类:分析水平(单个人力资源还是多个人力资源)和分析重点(以组织为中心还是以人为中心)。作者说明了流程挖掘在提供人力资源洞察力方面的多功能性,并强调了进一步丰富和扩展这一研究领域的机会,以分析资源团队如何能更好地发挥作用等问题。

Watt’s Next? Leveraging Process Flexibility for Power Cost Optimization 下一个瓦特?利用工艺灵活性优化电力成本

The transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources poses major challenges for balancing increasingly weather-dependent power supply and demand. Although demand-side energy flexibility, offered particularly by industrial companies, is seen as a promising and necessary approach to address these challenges and realize benefits for companies, its implementation is not yet common practice. Often facing highly complex process landscapes and operational systems, process mining provides significant potential to increase transparency of actual process flows and to discover or reflect existing dependencies and interrelationships of activities, instances or resources. It facilitates the implementation of energy flexibility measures and enables the realization of monetary benefits associated with flexible process operation. This paper contributes to the successful integration of energy flexibility into process operations by presenting a design science research artifact called PM4Flex. This is a prescriptive process monitoring approach that uses linear programming to generate recommendations for pending process flows optimized under fluctuating power prices by utilizing established energy flexibility measures. Thereby, event logs and corresponding company- as well as process-specific constraints are considered. PM4Flex is demonstrated and evaluated based on its implementation as a software prototype, its application to exemplary data from two real-world processes exhibiting power cost savings of up to 75% compared to the original execution, and based on semi-structured expert interviews. PM4Flex provides new design knowledge at the interface of prescriptive process monitoring and the energy domain providing decision support to optimize industrial energy procurement costs.

从化石燃料向可再生能源的过渡给平衡日益受天气影响的电力供需带来了重大挑战。尽管需求方能源灵活性(尤其是工业企业提供的灵活性)被视为应对这些挑战并为企业带来效益的一种有前途且必要的方法,但其实施尚未普及。通常情况下,面对高度复杂的流程景观和运营系统,流程挖掘在提高实际流程的透明度、发现或反映活动、实例或资源的现有依赖性和相互关系方面具有巨大潜力。它有助于实施能源灵活性措施,并实现与灵活流程操作相关的货币收益。本文介绍了一种名为 PM4Flex 的设计科学研究工具,有助于将能源灵活性成功整合到流程操作中。这是一种规范性流程监控方法,它使用线性规划来生成建议,以便在电价波动的情况下,利用既定的能源灵活性措施优化待定流程。因此,要考虑事件日志和相应的公司以及特定流程约束条件。PM4Flex 的演示和评估基于其作为软件原型的实施、对来自两个真实世界流程的示例数据的应用(与原始执行相比,可节省高达 75% 的电力成本)以及半结构化的专家访谈。PM4Flex 在规范性过程监控和能源领域的界面上提供了新的设计知识,为优化工业能源采购成本提供了决策支持。

The classification of police reports according to the typification of the criminal act described in them is not an easy task. The reports are written in natural language and often present missing, imprecise, or even inconsistent information, or lack sufficient details to make a clear decision. Focusing on property crimes, the aim of this work is to assist judges in this classification process by automatically extracting information from police reports and producing a list of possible classifications of crimes accompanied by a degree of confidence in each of them. The work follows the design science research methodology, developing a tool as an artifact. The proposal uses information extraction techniques to obtain the data from the reports, guided by an ontology developed for the Spanish legal system on property crimes. Probabilistic inference mechanisms are used to select the set of articles of the law that could apply to a given case, even when the evidence does not allow an unambiguous identification. The proposal has been empirically validated in a real environment with judges and prosecutors. The results show that the proposal is feasible and usable, and could be effective in assisting judges to classify property crime reports.

根据报告中描述的犯罪行为类型对警方报告进行分类并非易事。报告是用自然语言撰写的,经常会出现信息缺失、不准确甚至不一致的情况,或者缺乏足够的细节来做出明确的判决。这项工作以财产犯罪为重点,旨在通过自动提取警方报告中的信息,生成一份可能的犯罪分类列表,并附带对每种分类的置信度,从而在分类过程中为法官提供帮助。这项工作遵循设计科学研究方法,将开发工具作为一种人工制品。在为西班牙财产犯罪法律系统开发的本体论的指导下,该提案使用信息提取技术从报告中获取数据。概率推理机制用于选择可能适用于特定案件的法律条款集,即使在证据无法明确识别的情况下也是如此。该提案已在真实环境中与法官和检察官进行了经验验证。结果表明,该建议可行且可用,可有效协助法官对财产犯罪报告进行分类。

Assessing Completeness of IoT Data: A Novel Probabilistic Approach 评估物联网数据的完整性:一种新颖的概率方法

The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the driving forces behind Industry 4.0 and has the potential to improve the entire value chain, especially in the context of industrial manufacturing. However, results derived from IoT data are only viable if a high level of data quality is maintained. Thereby, completeness is especially critical, as incomplete data is one of the most common and costly data quality defects in the IoT context. Nevertheless, existing approaches for assessing the completeness of IoT data are limited in their applicability because they assume a known number of real-world entities or that the real-world entities appear in regular patterns. Thus, they cannot handle the uncertainty regarding the number of real-world entities typically present in the IoT context. Against this background, the paper proposes a novel, probability-based metric that addresses these issues and provides interpretable metric values representing the probability that an IoT database is complete. This probability is assessed based on the detection of outliers regarding the deviation between the estimated number of real-world entities and the number of digital entities. The evaluation with IoT data from a German car manufacturer demonstrates that the provided metric values are useful and informative and can discriminate well between complete and incomplete IoT data. The metric has the potential to reduce the cost, time, and effort associated with incomplete IoT data, providing tangible benefits in real-world applications.

物联网(IoT)是工业 4.0 的驱动力之一,具有改善整个价值链的潜力,尤其是在工业制造领域。然而,只有保持高水平的数据质量,从物联网数据中得出的结果才是可行的。因此,数据的完整性尤为重要,因为不完整的数据是物联网中最常见、成本最高的数据质量缺陷之一。然而,评估物联网数据完整性的现有方法适用性有限,因为它们假定现实世界实体的数量已知,或者现实世界实体以规则模式出现。因此,它们无法处理物联网环境中通常存在的真实世界实体数量的不确定性。在此背景下,本文提出了一种基于概率的新型度量方法,以解决这些问题,并提供可解释的度量值,代表物联网数据库完整的概率。该概率的评估基于对现实世界实体估计数量与数字实体数量之间偏差的异常值的检测。利用一家德国汽车制造商的物联网数据进行的评估表明,所提供的度量值非常有用,信息量大,可以很好地区分完整和不完整的物联网数据。该指标有可能降低与不完整物联网数据相关的成本、时间和精力,从而在实际应用中带来切实的好处。

A remarkable peculiarity of videoconferencing (VC) applications – the self-view – a.k.a. digital mirror, is examined as a potential reason behind the voiced exhaustion among users. This work draws on technostress research and objective self-awareness theory and proposes the communication role (sender vs. receiver) as an interaction variable. We report the results of two studies among European employees (n1 = 176, n2 = 253) with a one-year time lag. A higher frequency of self-view in a VC when receiving a message, i.e., listening to others, indirectly increases negative affect (study 1 & 2) and exhaustion (study 2) via the increased state of public self-awareness. Self-viewing in the role of message sender, e.g., as an online presenter, also increases public self-awareness, but its overall effects are less harmful. As for individual differences, users predisposed to public self-consciousness were more concerned with how other VC participants perceived them. Gender effects were insignificant.

视频会议(VC)应用的一个显著特点--自我视图(又称数字镜像)--被视为用户声音疲惫背后的潜在原因。这项工作借鉴了技术压力研究和客观自我意识理论,并提出将交流角色(发送方与接收方)作为交互变量。我们报告了两项针对欧洲员工(n1 = 176,n2 = 253)的研究结果,研究时滞为一年。在接收信息时,即在倾听他人说话时,越是频繁地自我审视,越会通过公众自我意识的增强间接增加负面情绪(研究 1 & 2)和疲惫感(研究 2)。以信息发送者的身份进行自我观察,如作为在线主持人,也会增加公众的自我意识,但其总体影响的危害性较小。至于个体差异,倾向于公众自我意识的用户更关注其他虚拟中心参与者对他们的看法。性别效应不明显。

Business process management (BPM) is changing in the digital age. As a result, organizations are confronted with new logics that their business processes adhere to: processes are designed to allow for easy adaptability, infrastructure becomes progressively more flexible, and process participants make their own decisions in ambiguous situations. In this context, business process change becomes increasingly important. Digital ventures – key phenomena in the digital age – heavily rely on digital technology and, hence, have the potential to change quickly. Consequently, their business processes need to change at the same speed. While the literature on BPM proposes different types of business process change and acknowledges that digital technology can enable such developments, it remains to be explored which specific characteristics of digital technology facilitate business process change. The study investigates this by drawing on a multiple case study with seven digital ventures. It finds four patterns of business process changes in digital ventures, illustrating digital technology’s impact on business processes. The study compares the patterns with existing types of business process change from the literature and discusses differences and similarities, trying to advance the understanding of business process dynamics in the digital age.

在数字化时代,业务流程管理(BPM)正在发生变化。因此,企业面临着业务流程所遵循的新逻辑:流程的设计要易于适应,基础设施要逐渐变得更加灵活,流程参与者要在模棱两可的情况下做出自己的决定。在这种情况下,业务流程变革变得越来越重要。数字企业--数字时代的重要现象--严重依赖数字技术,因此具有快速变革的潜力。因此,它们的业务流程也需要以同样的速度变化。虽然有关业务流程管理的文献提出了不同类型的业务流程变革,并承认数字技术能够促进这种发展,但数字技术的哪些具体特征能够促进业务流程变革仍有待探索。本研究通过对七家数字企业进行多案例研究来探讨这一问题。研究发现了数字企业业务流程变革的四种模式,说明了数字技术对业务流程的影响。研究将这些模式与文献中现有的业务流程变革类型进行了比较,并讨论了其中的异同,试图加深对数字时代业务流程动态的理解。
