Abstract

Secure and efficient decision making processes are of particular importance especially for small and medium-sized enterprises. In this context, delocalization of responsible decision makers often leads to decision making processes relying on circular resolutions. Although circular resolutions based on written consent are usually efficiently manageable for a limited number of decision makers, involving a potential large number of persons inevitably
complicates these processes in practice. In this paper, a circular resolution database system that addresses this problem is introduced. Our solution, which is based on the Austrian citizen card concept, makes use of qualified electronic signatures that provide means for secure authentication of users as well as for electronic signing of digital documents. By enhancing
decision making processes in terms of security, usability, and effectiveness while assuring auditing acceptability, the presented circular resolution database system especially contributes to the future competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises.
