Eric Yu is Professor at the University of Toronto, in the Faculty of Information. His research aims to advance the practice of information systems by incorporating intents and motivations of social actors into the analysis and design process. Social concepts are needed for dealing with complex issues such as security, privacy, and trust, knowledge management, business process innovation and strategy, policy and compliance, etc. Professor Yu received his Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Toronto. Earlier, he held positions in research and development labs at Bell and Nortel Networks in Ottawa. He also supervises graduate students in the Department of Computer Science through a status-only cross-appointment, and at the University of Ottawa through an adjunct appointment.
Specialties: information systems analysis and design, requirements engineering, software engineering, knowledge management, business modeling, social modeling, goal modeling

From MIT Press: "This book offers a new approach to the requirements challenge, based on modeling and analyzing the relationships among stakeholders. The i* framework conceives of software-based information systems as being situated in environments in which social actors relate to each other in terms of goals to be achieved, tasks to be performed, and resources to be furnished. The book includes Eric Yu's original proposal for the i* framework as well as research that applies, adapts, extends, or evaluates the social modeling concepts and approach." Chapter 2 is a reprint of Eric Yu's doctoral dissertation from 1995. It is followed by 18 chapters authored by researchers from around the world who have applied, adapted, or extended the i* framework in various ways, and for diverse application contexts – from business processes to knowledge management to air traffic control, from information security to software development.

"This book introduces research problems and solutions on various aspects central to next-generation BI systems. It begins with a chapter on an industry perspective on how BI has evolved, and discusses how game-changing trends have drastically reshaped the landscape of BI. One of the game changers is the shift toward the consumerization of BI tools. As a result, for BI tools to be successfully used by business users (rather than IT departments), the tools need a business model, rather than a data model. One chapter of the book surveys four different types of business modeling. ..." Part of the Synthesis Lectures on Data Management series. 163 pages. Full-text online via your library.

This Festschrift volume, published in honor of John Mylopoulos on the occasion of his retirement from the University of Toronto, contains 25 high-quality papers, written by leading scientists in the field of conceptual modeling. The first section focuses on the foundations of conceptual modeling and contains material on ontologies and knowledge representation. The four sections on software and requirements engineering, information systems, information integration, and web and services, represent the chief current application domains of conceptual modeling. Finally, the section on implementations concentrates on projects that build tools to support conceptual modeling. With its in-depth coverage of diverse topics, this book could be a useful companion to a course on conceptual modeling.

Chapter 7 in:Conceptual Modeling: Foundations and Applications - Essays in Honor of John Mylopoulos
IBM / ACM Press
The simultaneous widespread and rapid adoption of a number of emerging technologies including low-cost sensing, mobile devices, social and cloud computing, and especially big data analytics is leading up to a perfect storm which will transform our conception of society and organizations. When acting in isolation, each of these technologies is already radically changing our lives and reshaping many industries. When deployed together as elements of a coherent strategy, the impact could be even more far-reaching. Yet, there is no conceptual framework for developing such strategies. In this paper, we explore some avenues for formulating such a framework.

IWSECO'11 3rd International Workshop on Software Ecosystems
...a preliminary attempt is made to use a strategic modeling approach based on the i* modeling framework to help understand software ecosystems. i* models are used to depict strategic dependencies between software vendor, third party developers, and end-users, and to help explore and reason about alternate ways for achieving strategic goals for each actor. We compare the buyer-supplier relationships in the traditional software supply chain to the open ecosystem format from a mobile platform vendor's perspective. Implications of the changing dynamics between the software vendor and its direct buyer and supplier are also discussed.
