Business process documentation in creative work systems:a design science study in television production

Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht den Einfluss von Kreativität auf die Modellierung und Dokumentation von Geschäftsprozessen. Dabei wird ausgehend von einer theoretischen Basis eine Methode entwickelt, die die Erfassung kreativitätsintensiver Prozesse ermöglicht. Deren Besonderheit ist, dass sie das in der Prozessmodellierung vorherrschende strenge Kontrollflussparadigma aufbricht, um so dem Anspruch kreativer Arbeitssysteme an Flexibilität gerecht zu werden. Ausgehend vom kreativen Produkt werden dabei sukzessiv kreative Teilprozesse von administrativen Aufgaben isoliert, um so ein angemessenes Management beider zu ermöglichen. Die Methode wird in einer umfassenden Studie im Kontext der Fernsehproduktion in Deutschland evaluiert. Auf Basis semi-strukturierter Interviews werden dabei umfassende Modelle für die Produktlinien TV-Film, Serie, Daily Soap und Entertainment diskutiert. Die Ergebnisse werden abschließend auf die Methode und die zu Grunde liegende Theorie zurückgespiegelt.This study investigates the influence of creativity on the modeling and documentation of business processes. Based on a substantive theory a modeling method is developed that allows for the capturing of creativity-intensive processes. This method discards a strict and formal interpretation of the predominant control-flow paradigm in process modeling and thus conforms to the flexibility requirements of creative work systems. Emanating from the creative product, creative and administrative subprocesses are successively revealed, thus enabling the adequate management of both process types. The method is applied to the context of German television production. Comprising process models for the product lines television movie, primetime series, daily soap and entertainment are derived from qualitative interview data. The results of this evaluation are fed back to both the method as well as the foundational theory

Advances in Computational Social Science and Social Simulation

Aquesta conferència és la celebració conjunta de la "10th Artificial Economics Conference AE", la "10th Conference of the European Social Simulation Association ESSA" i la "1st Simulating the Past to Understand Human History SPUHH".Conferència organitzada pel Laboratory for Socio­-Historical Dynamics Simulation (LSDS-­UAB) de la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona.Readers will find results of recent research on computational social science and social simulation economics, management, sociology,and history written by leading experts in the field. SOCIAL SIMULATION (former ESSA) conferences constitute annual events which serve as an international platform for the exchange of ideas and discussion of cutting edge research in the field of social simulations, both from the theoretical as well as applied perspective, and the 2014 edition benefits from the cross-fertilization of three different research communities into one single event. The volume consists of 122 articles, corresponding to most of the contributions to the conferences, in three different formats: short abstracts (presentation of work-in-progress research), posters (presentation of models and results), and full papers (presentation of social simulation research including results and discussion). The compilation is completed with indexing lists to help finding articles by title, author and thematic content. We are convinced that this book will serve interested readers as a useful compendium which presents in a nutshell the most recent advances at the frontiers of computational social sciences and social simulation researc

Implementation of Legal Protection for Journalists in Safeguarding Local Democracy

One of the reasons for the decline in Indonesia’s ranking in the freedom of the press and expression was due to the many cases of violence against journalists and the criminalization of those who expressed their opinions. Legal protection for journalists is a guarantee given by the government and the public to journalists in carrying out their journalistic duties. The study used an empirical legal approach or non- doctrinal research. This research was conducted in several media from 2011-2018 in Pekanbaru, Riau, Indonesia. The main findings of this study indicate that the phrase of ”protection” in the formulation of Law Number 40 of 1999 concerning the press has given rise to multiple interpretations which resulted in journalists experiencing pressure in carrying out their duties. In conclusion, it is highly recommended that the law should be revise
