Abstract
Design and operation of a distributed information system have to consider a dynamic environment of requirements and opportunities. Full usage of the power of an information system can only be achieved through its integration into the various interrelated design and management activities in an enterprise. Simultaneously engineering the entire design process is recommended. ESPRIT project COMANDOS takes an adaptive approach for the design and management of distributed information systems that allows the original design of the infrastructure to be modified as experience is gained and as user requirements towards the operating environment change. One tool out of a set of required tools is described in detail: DISDES — a tool for organizational design.
