ABSTRACT
In the chapters of this book so far, we have explored the e-business space along a number of dimensions as outlined in Chapter 2 and Chapter 3. This provides a conceptual ‘tool’ for analyzing and designing e-business scenarios, but does not yet explain how to precisely ‘handle this tool’ in practice. In terms of cooking: the ingredients are there, but the overall recipe is still missing. Therefore, we provide guidelines in this chapter as to how to use the theory in this book for the following tasks:
• classifying an existing e-business scenario (Section 8.2); • analyzing an existing e-business scenario (Section 8.3).
