Abstract

Ubik is a system within which organizational structure, concepts, and actions are described and organizational applications are executed. Ubik represents an organization not with one global model, but with multiple overlapping models which can be physically distributed within multiple knowledge bases. There is a basic computational object in Ubik called the Ubik Configurator. The Configurator is used to specify organizational concepts, handlers, goals, and constraints. Configurators are linked together in lattices within a model. There are different types of models built using the configurator. Ubik models support the communication between distributed applications and the control of the parallel execution of applications. Development models support the continual evolution necessary in a large organization to cope with the changing external environment. Due process models support the resolving of conflicts between conflicting models. Organizational models describe the end-users organization and applications.
