Special Issue on "Design science research in the networked economy"

This collection reports on DSR projects conducted in the research field of electronic markets, specifically the networked economy. The goal of design science research (DSR) is to generate prescriptive knowledge about the design of Information Systems (IS) artifacts like software, methods, models, and concepts (Hevner et al. 2004). In a wider sense, DSR intends to generate design knowledge, that is, knowledge about innovative solutions to real-world problems (vom Brocke et al. 2019). The editors of this collection used six core dimensions in planning and communicating these DSR projects: Problem description, solution description, key concepts, input knowledge, output knowledge, and research process.
