Abstract
Interoperability in enterprise systems is currently discussed from a system
theoretic point of view. In the conceptual work described here, two special instances of
systems theory are used as a basis allowing to detail requirements for interoperability in
dynamic environments. Chaos Theory and Complex Adaptive Systems Theory focus on the
description of properties of dynamic systems where the global system's behavior cannot be
determined by summing up behaviors of system parts. First a connection between enterprise
systems and the theories are established. The theories are then used as a lens for analyzing
and discussing initial requirements for a platform that supports interoperability in a dynamic
context.
