<strong>Business</strong> <strong>Process</strong><br />
<strong>Integration</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />
<strong>Management</strong>
Scope of the Journal<br />
<strong>Business</strong> processes have played an important role in enabling business application<br />
integration <strong>and</strong> collaboration across multiple organisations. The integration can be<br />
categorised into two types: internal integration <strong>and</strong> external integration. Internal<br />
integration includes all the integration aspects within one enterprise. Enterprise<br />
application integration (EAI) is a typical example of internal integration. External<br />
integration covers all the possible integration patterns across multiple enterprises.<br />
The typical business process based external application integration includes<br />
business process to application integration (BP2Ai) <strong>and</strong> business process to<br />
business process integration (BP2BPi). To stay competitive, companies must be<br />
agile in adapting their business processes to the ever-changing market dynamics.<br />
The adaptive business process based enterprises should look beyond the<br />
traditional enterprises <strong>and</strong> marketplaces through collaborative interactions <strong>and</strong><br />
dynamic e-business solution bindings. The enterprise infrastructure has to provide<br />
the capability for dynamic discovery of trading partners <strong>and</strong> service providers as<br />
well as enabling federated security mechanisms, solution monitoring <strong>and</strong><br />
management. IJBPIM will focus on the emerging business process modelling,<br />
simulation, integration <strong>and</strong> management using emerging technologies. It is the first<br />
academic journal that concentrates on the information technology (IT) level as well<br />
as the relationship between the business level <strong>and</strong> IT implementation level.<br />
