Recent research in systems engineering shows the community’s interest in scenarios. Advantages of using scenarios have been reported in wide range of contexts within the area. Recalling that any systematic, and eventually, automated management of scenarios presupposes firm formal ground, research on formal theories for scenarios is highly motivated. However, only little work has been reported for that purpose, e.g. Hsia, Samuel, Gao, Kung, Toyoshina and Chen (1994). This chapter presents a formal approach to managing scenarios, using first order temporal logic extended with basic set theory, in the context of information systems modelling (ISM). In our framework scenarios are dealt with from two formal points of view, namely representation and reasoning.

Abstract. Digitalization, enhanced storage capacities, and the Internet of Things increase the volume of data in modern organizations. To process and make use of these data and to avoid information overload, management information systems (MIS) are introduced that collect, process, and analyze relevant data. However, a precondition for the application of MIS is that users trust them. Extending accounts of trust in automation and trust in technology, we introduce a new model of trust in MIS that addresses the conceptual ambiguities of existing conceptualizations of trust and integrates initial empirical work in this field. In doing so, we differentiate between perceived trustworthiness of an MIS, experienced trust in an MIS, intentions to use an MIS, and actual use of an MIS. Moreover, we consider users’ perceived risks and contextual factors (e. g., autonomy at work) as moderators. The introduced model offers guidelines for future research and initial suggestions to foster trust-based MIS use.
