Biography
Feliciano Sesé graduated in Physics at the Universitat de Barcelona.
He is a member of the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), of the Computer Society of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and of the Association for Information Systems (AIS).
His teaching activity is focused on the management and conceptual modelling of databases and on information systems analysis and design.
In recent years, he has dedicated his research activity to the study of the 'information' concept, currently one of the most frequently used but least understood concepts, which can be critical in the success or failure of many information systems projects.
His last work was devoted to this problem: 'Words and Objects in Information Systems Development: Six Paradigms of Information as Representation'. Published in the European Conference on Information Systems, Göteborg, Sweden, 2006, it was nominated as one of the best 12 of the conference.
He has lectured at ESADE since 1975.
