Despite new technological advances such as cloud computing or model-driven development, technical ERP customization options are either outdated or ambiguously formulated in the scientific literature. Using a systematic literature review (SLR) that analyzes 137 definitions from 26 papers, the result is an analysis and aggregation of technical customization types by providing clearance and aligning with future organizational needs. The results show a shift from ERP code modification in on-premises systems to interface and integration customization in cloud ERP systems, as well as emerging technological opportunities as a way for customers and key users to perform system customization. The study contributes by providing a clear understanding of given customization types and assisting ERP users and vendors in making customization decisions.}, language = {en} } @article{DragičevićUllrichTsuietal.2020, author = {Dragičević, Nikolina and Ullrich, Andr{\´e} and Tsui, Eric and Gronau, Norbert}, title = {A conceptual model of knowledge dynamics in the industry 4.0 smart grid scenario}, series = {Knowledge management research \& practice : KMRP}, volume = {18}, journal = {Knowledge management research \& practice : KMRP}, number = {2}, publisher = {Taylor \& Francis}, address = {London [u.a.]}, issn = {1477-8238}, doi = {10.1080/14778238.2019.1633893}, pages = {199 -- 213}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Technological advancements are giving rise to the fourth industrial revolution - Industry 4.0 -characterized by the mass employment of smart objects in highly reconfigurable and thoroughly connected industrialproduct-service systems.
