Abstract
This paper presents a novel approach to the development and operation of dynamic networked organization. The approach is based on the idea of using interactive models. Interactive models are visual models of enterprise aspects that can be viewed, traversed, analyzed, simulated, adapted and executed by industrial users as part of their work. The approach was developed in the EXTERNAL-project, where experiences from three case studies were used as a basis for validation and further enhancement of the approach in follow-up projects. The main innovative contributions include an environment to support concurrent modelling, meta-modelling, management and performance of work, integrated support for planned and emergent processes, and customisable model- and process-driven integration.
