====================
FIRST EUROPEAN CONFERENCE ON INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY FOR ORGANISATIONAL SYSTEMS
ATHENS 16-20 MAY 1988
========================================
CONCEPTS FOR INCREASED COMPETITIVENESS
========================================
organised by: COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
sponsored by: IFIP
The development of Information Systems cannot be separated from the develop-
ment of organisation style.
The aim of this conference is to explore trends and concepts in organisations
triggered by the widespread introduction of information technologies. These
technologies are making possible profound changes in the way which organi-
sations react to the market. Technological developments have a significant
impact on the competitive environment of companies of nearly all industries,
administrations and enterprises changing their shape, size, and mode of oper-
ation.
The conference will bring together decision makers, managers and researchers
from Europe and overseas, who are working on these issues. Key questions the
Conference aims to address are:
- What are the strategic neeeds of organisations which are not yet being
aided by information technology?
- What are the problems and difficulties with present information tech-
nology at both strategic and operational levels?
- What are the most significant trends in information technology?
- How does information technology change the competitive environment and
the nature of organisations?
- What are the requirements for further information technology develop-
ments from the users point of view?
- Which new concepts and tools for applied information system design are
available?
- What is the payoff for modern technology-based tools in the office? in
the factory? for engineers?
TECHNICAL PROGRAMME:
====================
Complex information systems offer suppliers and system designers a very wide
range of design options. Early feedback from potential users will be
beneficial for all sides. In order to assess the impact of advanced infor-
mation technology on future organisational systems, and to analyse user needs
and user solutions for their impact on technological development, the tech-
nical programme will be developed according to three main themes:
I. Information management for organisations
II. Advances in information technology
III. Examples of advanced systems in a range of application domains
STRUCTURE OF THE PROGRAMME:
============================
PAPERS:
The Conference will be structured in a number of parallel sessions to give
appropriate time to each contribution. Each session will be planned to
allow more discussion time than usual.

becoming popular.
