FLEXIBLE IT SYSTEMS

Abstract

Demand of flexibility is emergent in every aspect of life. Flexible information systems, adapted to the rapidly changing business environment, are an old wish of information technology. Inspecting the area of inter-organisation business communication systems (traditional EDI and its children) I found out the main reason of slow intrusion of EDI and other B2B solutions could be found in the lack of flexible systems too. Because of the possible size this article intends to give a short peek to the idea of the flexible system. Article overviews the main aspects of the flexible system, first of all in sense of information management.
