Abstract

Location independence for organizations is desirable if they wish to achieve a given spatial distribution in a regional development plan. An organization's interaction with its environment forms the basis of its daily work and takes the form of ‘information links’ composed of fundamental indivisible blocks called ‘conversations’. To achieve location independence it is necessary for organizations to develop and maintain environment interactions independent of their location. Information technology systems are able to reduce location restrictions by providing distant parties with the conversational structure present in face-to-face interpersonal interactions.
