Furthermore, these assessment procedures are usually only available after the disassembly process has been completed. This is where conceptualization, data acquisition and simulation of remanufacturing processes can help. One major constraining aspect of remanufacturing is reducing logistic efforts, since these also have negative external effects on the environment. Thus regionalization is an additional but in the end consequential challenge for remanufacturing.

This results in new requirements for the modeling, analysis and design of information processing and performance mapping business processes.

Given that many restrictions ERP pose on their adaptability are related to the standardization of data, the database layer of ERP systems is addressed. Since database serve as the foundation for data storage and retrieval, they limit the flexibility of enterprise systems and the chance to adapt to new requirements accordingly. So far, relational databases are widely used. Using a systematic literature approach, recent requirements for ERP systems were identified. Prominent database approaches were assessed against the 23 requirements identified. The results reveal the strengths and weaknesses of recent database approaches. To this end, the results highlight the demand to combine multiple database approaches to fulfill recent business requirements.

Due to the great diversity of digital platform concepts, clear definitions are still required. Furthermore, DPs are subject to dynamic changes from internal and external factors, which pose challenges for digital platform operators, developers and customers. Which current digital platform research directions should be taken to address these challenges remains open so far. The following paper aims to contribute to this by outlining a systematic literature review (SLR) on digital platform concepts in the context of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) for manufacturing companies and provides a basis for (1) a selection of definitions of current digital platform and ecosystem concepts and (2) a selection of current digital platform research directions. These directions are diverted into (a) occurrence of digital platforms, (b) emergence of digital platforms, (c) evaluation of digital platforms, (d) development of digital platforms, and (e) selection of digital platforms.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BenderGronau2022, author = {Bender, Benedict and Gronau, Norbert}, title = {Introduction to the Minitrack on towards the future of enterprise systems}, series = {Proceedings of the 55th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 55th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences}, editor = {Bui, Tung}, publisher = {Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences}, address = {Honolulu, HI}, isbn = {978-0-9981331-5-7}, doi = {10.24251/HICSS.2022.869}, pages = {7232 -- 7233}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Enterprise systems have long played an important role in businesses of various sizes.
