4 Proceedings of the CENTERIS 2010 Conference on ENTERprise Information Systems Preface CENTERIS Conference on ENTERprise Information Systems is an international conference addressing the largely multidisciplinary field embraced by enterprise information systems (EIS) from its social, organizational and technological perspectives. Focused on aligning technology, organizations and people, the CENTERIS 2010 edition, was held in Viana do Castelo,. This was the place where, from October 20 to 22, 2010, under the leitmotiv of Enterprise Information Systems, academics, scientists, information technologies/information systems professionals, managers and solution providers from all over the world had the opportunity to share experiences, bring new ideas, debate issues, and introduce the latest developments from the social, organizational and technological perspectives of this domain. More than 150 manuscripts were submitted to CENTERIS 2010, coming from the five continents. There were 92 selected papers for presentation and inclusion in the conference proceedings, representing 221 authors from academia, research institutions and industry. This book of proceedings is organized in eleven sections, distributed by two volumes. Volume I includes the following five sections: Knowledge Society; EIS Design, Implementation and Impact; EIS Adoption; EIS Applications and IT/IS Management. The second volume comprises six sections: EIS Architectures; Business Aspects; Collaboration, Networked and Virtual Organizations; Social Aspects; IS in Education and Technical Aspects and Emerging Technologies. These proceedings are intended for use by academics and practitioners that want to be aware of what is currently in the EIS agenda, from research to everyday business practice. We believe that the high quality and interest of the contributions received in CENTERIS 2010 makes this an important publication in the EIS field. It is expected that this conference proceedings will effectively transmit to the readers the enriching and exciting communication, exchange of views and debate promoted within this truly global group of recognized individuals, as experienced by all who attended CENTERIS Finally, on behalf of the organization, we would like to express our gratitude to all the authors for their visions and excellent contributions to the conference, as well as to the scientific committee members, who acceded to share their insights, prompt collaboration and constructive comments in the review process. We are also grateful

5 VI Preface to all who acceded to contribute to CENTERIS, some of them with high-quality manuscripts that unfortunately, due to several constraints could not see their work accepted for presentation and publication.
