1. OVERVIEW
Pervasive Business is the way successful organisations will interact in the
future. Pervasive Business is concerned with the dynamics of the online
systems that allow interactions to seamlessly occur within and between
organisations. Many organisations are currently harnessing these electronic
systems to enhance the channels in their value chains.

Pervasive Business currently includes many business communication tools,
processes and structures such as vertical and horizontal portals, B2B, B2C,
and C2C processes, virtual enterprises and workgroups, m(obile)-commerce and
e-learning. Pervasive Business involves many complex issues such as
modelling the architectures for effective B2B processes, security of
transactions, effective business rules and laws and working within the
limitations of devices such as mobile computing.

DSTC's EVOLVE CONFERENCE: Pervasive Business aims to address some of the
fundamental business and technical problems associated with such complex
issues.  The event runs for two days, with parallel streams aimed at both
technical and business audiences. The event is preceded by tutorial sessions
which complement the topics covered in both streams.
