The
idea of publishing a professional journal in the field of business information science was formalized at the ISBIS 2005 Conference, where the participants expressed their need for an international publication possibility.
The Scientific and Educational Forum for Business Information Systems (SEFBIS) as an Association of the John von
Neumann Computer Society was established in 2000 in order to give a controlled public
forum to the members and
to give publicity to both the experienced and the young specialists.
After two successful domestic conferences and an International Symposium and after having the
expertise's acknowledgment concerning
to the GIKOF Journal
the SEFBIS
chairmanship
decided to extend the publicity to international fields. The initiatives were supported by the
special Association of the International Federation for Information Processing. The chairman of the TC 8
Information Systems Committee, D. Roode emphasized that only the nationwide activity of the specialists manifested
by meetings, conferences and publication of a high standard can realized the international goals.
As the European Union has more and more member states, it becomes much more important to start
with another way of thinking! After that some post socialist countries including Hungary have joined to EU the
scientific and educational cooperation turned more and more important. The key issue to the European vision is the
information and the information management, which constitutes also the focused theme of our journal. We, the
committed leaders of SEFBIS take the responsibility of collaborating with professionals in realizing the knowledge
based society, and do our best to provide
Europe wide
access to and interchange of information. Our program reflects the European needs, so we
call the professionals to report the scientific results, the new business or the educational solutions with the
aim of discussing
-
- the role and the impact of IS/IT on business and on
society,
-
-
the concepts, modeling techniques, methods,
visualization languages supporting the IS development processes,
-
-
the solutions that satisfies customers' requirements
and ensures security and privacy, and
-
-
the realization of the European Higher Education
Space focusing to the field of business information systems
(aims, programs, curricula, cooperation, new teaching
materials etc.)
Although this first volume of SEFBIS Journal has only few authors from abroad, together with the members of the
Editorial Board and with the support of the IFIP TC 8 and WG 8.9
we can forecast an
international wide interest and we can also expect the success. In the hope that in the next Years the SEFBIS
Journal becomes more and more known and acknowledged, we welcome the first authors!

results from all over the world! I call the attention of the specialists in the field of business information
science to make their results public and known internationally!
