The objective of this paper is to put forward a discussion of how a better understanding of the issues surrounding control can be an important element in the development of generativity strategies in business models for mobile platforms, such as Apple's iPhone. Generativity refers to “a technology's overall capacity to produce unprompted change driven by large, varied, and uncoordinated audiences”...
Rich and attractive mobile services have been developed as result of technological advances and emergent mobile business models. Product launching has been improved through packaging and orchestration of services components using service composition techniques. The design of charging systems, which can explore partner information, is a strong enabler for mobile composite services ecosystems. The authors...
This paper reviews what theoretical models of technology evaluation are used in mobile work context. We examine how these models are extended to take mobility and organisational contexts into account. We found that most of the extensions were related to mobile task and mobile technology aspects but also costs, impacts and organisational viability were added. The paper provides discussion on the strengths...
Technology diffusion theory is mainly focused on technology adoption, while prerequisites to such adoption are largely disregarded or taken for granted. The study argues that the in-depth analysis of what comes prior to adoption and use of technology – what we define “technology activation” – is equally important, so as to spot industry-specific characteristics that enable or hinder a value proposition...
With the good customer foundation and increasing revenue, m-commerce is on the growing development stage. Although there are many literatures about the factors affecting customer intention in internet-based e-commerce contexts, it is necessary to do an empirical validation in m-commerce contexts. Factors of trust and social influence integrated to TAM were used in the conceptual model. Empirical data...
Objective of this research is to investigate customers' adoption of M-payments by examining the adoption determinants that are specific for the M-payment context. For this aim, we are going to review some adoption theories and previous studies which have been done in adoption of m-payment area and extract the most significant factors and finally develop appropriate model for Iranian customers. The...
Users may use a mobile service in various contexts. It is critical to study how users' perceptions and intentions are affected by context. We discuss the definition and structure of context, then propose a contextual acceptance model of mobile commerce based on TAM. We apply this model to the case of a GPS-based taxi-dispatching system. Preliminary data analysis illustrates that context has significant...
