Abstract:
The work presented in this paper aims at contributing to reduced information overload in organizations. We propose to capture organizational knowledge about the typical information demand of an organizational role in an information demand pattern, which can serve as basis for analyzing information flow problems and developing organizational and technical improvements. The contributions of this paper are (1) the concept of an information demand pattern, (2) the structure for textual descriptions of such patterns, and (3) experiences from the development and validation process. The approach is based on an industrial case and illustrated by an example pattern. The main achievements are validated research results, i.e. the concept of information demand patterns and actual patterns.
