Abstract
After explaining why business executives and academics should consider thinking about a rigorous approach to e-business models, we introduce a new e-Business Model Ontology. Using the concept of business models can help companies understand, communicate and share, change, measure, simulate and learn more about the different aspects of e-business in their firm. The generic e-Business Model Ontology (a rigorous definition of the e-business issues and their interdependencies in a company’s business model), which we outline in this paper is the foundation for the development of various useful tools for e-business management and IS Requirements Engineering. The e-Business Model Ontology is based on an extensive literature review and describes the logic of a “business system” for creating value in the Internet era. It is composed of four main pillars, which are Product Innovation, Infrastructure Management, Customer Relationship and Financial Aspects. These elements are then further decomposed.

1. Introduction
After the burst of the .com stock market bubble in 2000/2001 the term “e-business model” might provoke yawning. Wrongly, as we show in this paper. Admittedly, consultants, executives,
academics and journalists have abusively used the term and rarely given an explanation of what they really meant be talking about e-business models. This has undermined and discredited the concept. But in our opinion it merits a closer inspection by academics and executives. We think that rigorously defined e-business models can help companies implement their e-business strategies and additionally allow them to assess, measure, change and sometimes even play around with and simulate their business.
In this paper we construct and outline an ontology (rigorous framework) for e-business models based on an extensive literature review. In our opinion the understanding and use of e-business

VALUE CREATION IN E-BUSINESS

by : RAPHAEL AMIT and CHRISTOPH ZOTT
Published : Strategic Management Journal, Strat. Mgmt. J., 22: 493–520 (2001)

We explore the theoretical foundations of value creation in e-business by examining how 59 American and European e-businesses that have recently become publicly traded corporations create value. We observe that in e-business new value can be created by the ways in which transactions are enabled. Grounded in the rich data obtained from case study analyses and in the received theory in entrepreneurship and strategic management, we develop a model of the sources of value creation. The model suggests that the value creation potential of e-businesses hinges on four interdependent dimensions, namely: efficiency, complementarities, lock-in, and novelty. Our findings suggest that no single entrepreneurship or strategic management theory can fully explain the value creation potential of e-business. Rather, an integration of the received theoretical perspectives on value creation is needed. To enable such an integration, we offer the business model construct as a unit of analysis for future research on value creation in e-business. A business model depicts the design of transaction content, structure, and governance so as to create value through the exploitation of business opportunities. We propose that a firm’s business model is an important locus of innovation and a crucial source of value creation for the firm and its suppliers, partners, and customers.

Key words: value creation; e-business; business model

INTRODUCTION
As we enter the twenty-first century, business conducted over the Internet (which we refer to as ‘e-business’), with its dynamic, rapidly growing, and highly competitive characteristics, promises new avenues for the creation of wealth.
Established firms are creating new online businesses, while new ventures are exploiting the opportunities the Internet provides. In 1999, goods sold over the Internet by U.S. firms were estimated to be $109 billion and by the end of 2000 should reach $251 billion.1 By 2002, it is . . . . . . (baca_selengkapnya )

Computational Challenges in E-Commerce

Review Articles
Companies and individuals are using computer networks to conduct increasing amounts of their daily business. Web search engines auctioned some $10 billion of ad space in 2007, accounting for almost half of all online advertising revenue. Sales at Amazon.
com were $4.13 billion in the first quarter of 2008, including a fast-growing revenue stream from selling Web services to other e-commerce companies. At eBay, sales reached $15.7 billion in the second quarter, with 84.5 million active users.
This explosion of large-scale e-commerce poses new computational challenges that stem from the need to understand incentives. Because individuals and organizations that own and operate networked computers and systems are autonomous, they will generally act to maximize their own self-interest—a notion that is absent from traditional algorithm design. In this article, we provide an overview of four areas of computation in which incentives play a crucial role: resource allocation, knowledge integration, peer production and interaction, and security and privacy.

Resource Allocation

Allocating scarce resources—from bread to bytes—is a fundamental process that permeates economics and, indeed, society. Participants declare their perceived value for the resource and the market computes the best (for example, value-maximizing) allocation and the prices that participants should pay.
