A Meta-model for Digital Business Ecosystem Design

• The Digital Business Ecosystem (DBE) theory has evolved to facilitate the functioning of open business networks by adopting the ecosystem paradigm from nature in a shared digital environment. While it enables exhibiting diverse interests, it also places high demands on managing the DBE’s resilience. The current research lacks support for how a DBE-based business model can be integrated with its supporting information system’s data structure to enable the design and monitoring of resilience for indicating the needed adaptations caused by changes in DBE’s actors, their engagement or performance balance. We propose and instantiate a meta-model that describes the DBE’s entities relevant to its design using the CIVIS ecosystem. The meta-model provides a foundation for a modelling language for the management of the resilience of DBE.
