Bringing Blockchain technology and business process management together, we follow the Design Science Research approach design, implement, evaluate a prototype for cross-organizational workflow together with German bank. For use case of documentary letter credit describe status quo process, identify areas improvement, implement solution, compare both workflows. The illustrates that as today paper-based high manual effort, can be significantly improved. Our research reveals tamper-proof...
Abstract Multi-sided platforms are omnipresent in today’s digital world. However, establishing a platform includes challenges: The utility usually increases with the number of participants. At an early stage, potential participants expect to be low and lack incentive join (i.e., “chicken egg” problem). Blockchain-enabled tokens hold promise overcome this problem. They supposedly provide suitable financial for their owners as soon possible. In first half 2018, investors seemed believe...
In the financial services industry, many people assume blockchain to have significant impacts. From research and practice, we observe two main paradigms of how organizations interact with blockchain. First, use optimize existing processes (blockchain-based business process optimization (BPO)). Second, disrupt processes, foster disintermediation, enable disruptive models disruption (BPD)). However, lack scientific that evaluates its de facto potential. We bridge this gap by following a design...
Abstract In the Internet of Things (IoT), interconnected smart things enable new products and services in cyber-physical systems. Yet, not only inherit information technology (IT) security risks from their digital components, but they may also aggravate them through use platforms (TPs). context IoT, TPs describe a tangible (e.g., hardware) or intangible software standards) general-purpose that is shared between different models things. While are evolving rapidly owing to functional economic...
