The project goal of COOP is to define consistency relationships between model of a value web and coordination process of the cooperating businesses:

• Coordination process executed by ICT systems of cooperating partners

• Different levels of trust among partners

• Risk taken by partners by participating in the cooperation

Design questions are:

• How to design a coordination process based on a value model and trust assumptions, and assuming the reuse of legacy ICT?

• How to incorporate the cost of security mechanisms in the value model?

• How to estimate the risk of the coordination given the value model and levels of trust?

The solutions approach is to:

• Formalize value models and coordination models

• Use available correctness techniques to analyze correctness relations

• Extend with risk estimation techniques

Research questions are:

• When is a coordination process "correct" with respect to a value model?

• How do companies currently manage the risks of cross-organizational cooperation?

COOP is a cooperation between the Information Systems Group of the University of Twente and the Business Informatics Section of the Free University of Amsterdam.
COOP is sponsored by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research NWO.
