The paper asserts that the process of emergence which constitutes the cornerstone of contemporary sociological thought on organization lies also at the root of the process of organizational engineering. Furthermore it proposes that if the study of HRIS has crucial organizational implications, then the study of HRIS should encompass also engineering and modelling considerations. An organizational modelling framework is put forward which contains the following propositions, also applicable to the design of HRIS from an integrated perspective: (1) Enhanced traceability of organizational agents, (2) Situated enterprise modelling, (3) Model acquisition from action repositories, (4) Capturing and modelling work practices, (5) Aligning design and execution.

This paper presents a PhD research plan related with the alignment problem between the Enterprise Architecture (re)definition and the informationsystems Architecture (re)implementation. This problem is located in the Organizational informationsystems area hence exists an integration between Human, machines and information. The goal of this research is to define a control methodology that (i) allows the specification of an informationsystems Architecture starting from an a priori defined Enterprise Architecture reference and that (ii) enables the informationsystems Architecture specification alignment whenever facing Enterprise Architecture reference changes in time and finally that (iii) controls informationsystems Architecture perturbations. To achieve those goals we propose to study the state of the art related with the control systems taken from disparate scientific areas and to identify the probably useful concepts and models to this research. The research activity network, the research methodology to be used and the expected outcome are also identified.
Despite the considerable work on agent frameworks, user interfaces to manage these are mostly script based. Even though some solutions provide graphical interfaces to build agent worlds these are quite limited and ove...

We present electromyography as an interface to control computer applications. Our prototype makes possible for users to control any application through muscle contractions. Electromyographic device portability and the monitoring possibility for any muscle voluntarily contracted can bring great benefits at the mobility level as in accessibility issues. Through operating system events emulation and their association with determined muscle contractions we can replace the pointing device or some keyboard elements, achieving control of any application. Usability evaluations validate electromyography as a daily wearable interface where we show that it can be used even in a mobility context. Considering accessibility, we present a synergy between applications that ease message writing. Evaluations show that this synergy outperforms existent text-entry interfaces, based on point and click approaches.

Although there have been great advances in business process modeling as a means to better understand and control organizations and improve the development of informationsystems, the existence of functions - like IT, logistics, financial, etc. - is an inescapable reality in organizations, that strongly influences aspects like change processes, or the formation of organizational units, even if a culture of "process orientation" is established. This paper tries to clarify the concept of organizational function, discusses certain organizational artifacts that seem to be of a functional nature and proposes an ontology for the purpose of allowing a consistent and coherent modeling of this recursive self-maintenance mechanism of organizations.
