Abstract

Methodologies. This is the first time we organize this new minitrack on electronic commerce systems development. The flexibility, scalability, user-friendliness, privacy, security, intuitiveness, and other important characteristics of electronic commerce systems make the systems development process of such systems very multifaceted and complex. Today, most electronic commerce systems are built based on intuition and rule of thumbs.Many practitioners have the misconception that there is no need for a systematic modeling and design technique for these systems. The lack of appropriate methods and methodologies to support electronic commerce systems development is another stumbling block. Most of the widely used methods are weak in supporting the modeling of user interface, non-traditional data types (e.g. multimedia), security, and access control that are so important for electronic commerce systems. New modeling methods and methodologies need to be engineered to address this new breed of electronic commerce systems development projects.The field is still in its infancy. Innovative ideas and new systems development methods and methodologies are only starting to emerge. One thing, however, is sure. Electronic commerce systems development is a critical new area and will get more even more important as electronic commerce continues to grow and expand.We would like to take this opportunity to thank Eileen Dennis, track administrator, and Alan Dennis, track chair for Internet and the Digital Economy track, for their support. We also like to express our gratitude to the group of reviewers for this minitrack.If you have any comments or suggestions that will help us improve the minitrack, please do let us know. Have a great time in Hawaii and do keep in touch.
