ELECTRONIC COMMERCE

Motivation

With the emergence of internet and the world wide web new methods of

carrying out business transactions using the world wide web began to be
explored. Electronic Commerce emerged as a very important application of

the world wide web. Today it is difficult to find an isolated computer.

Computers in an organization are interconnected to form intranets and

Intranets of the cooperating organizations are interconnected to form

extranet. It is cheaper and faster to carry out business transactions within an

organization and among organizations electronically using the network

connection. Thus it is important to understand how business transactions are

carried out electronically reliably and securely. When designing information

systems it is essential to understand the emerging web based transactions. A

number of organizations are exploring how to carry out all day-to-day

operations electronically using the intranet in a so-called paperless system. It

is thus important for a student to understand how to design such systems.
