Information Systems Development faces many recurrent issues that must be addressed in every project. A lot of common requirements and features repeatedly appear on different projects challenging the development team. Exchanging solutions and the expertise gained over the evaluation of such solutions among projects can prevent the development teams from reinventing the wheel. The MDArte framework has...
Many organisations have adopted outsourcing for delivering critical IT services to their clients. Organisations need to identify the potential security threats of outsourced IT projects as early as possible to avoid or mitigate security incidents. Existing threat classification approaches suffer from limitations such as the lack of exhaustive threat classification criteria. In this paper, we propose...
This paper introduces a model to represent the information systems using a tactical service-oriented infrastructure (TSI) together with the orchestrations of core services providing the reactive/proactive connectivity mechanisms within TSIs in/out chains. The model was instantiated with services realizing an algorithm behaving differently under stable or unstable network conditions. A quantitative...
Complex user's needs often require heterogeneous services to be combined together. In this paper, we explore a novel approach to enable flexible and dynamic composition of heterogeneous services for end users who are usually not familiar with technical process models. End-users are only required to model their goals and semantic reasoning is used for the composition itself. The possible service compositions...
Nowadays, companies seek to optimize their position in the global market. To do so, they are forced to work together to maintain a competitive advantage based on a unified approach to value creation. This collaboration is increasingly taking place through information systems and technologies. This article aims to present the role of inter-organizational collaboration in the logistics information systems...
Despite the growth and commercial potential of instant messaging service, little is known about what factors create users' satisfaction with a particular service application. In this context, the major contribution is to examine the sources of users' satisfaction with WeChat official account. For this purpose, combining Information System Success theory, Theory of Reasoned Action and Technology Acceptance...
Many governments are increasingly reliant on externalservice providers to process, store or transmit sensitivedata on behalf of the government. This study is motivated by the problem of preserving the confidentiality of sensitive government data, particularly following Edward Snowden's revelations of alleged pervasive surveillance, a problem posed by foreign intelligence services to the Indonesian...
Cyber-physical-human systems find new applications in various areas of human lives. The paper proposes usage of a system of this class to achieve a synergy between the connected car and e-tourism ideas. The developed approach is presented with more attention paid to the situational awareness and behavioral awareness. The approach is illustrated via a case study aimed to organization of infomobile...
Human resource information systems (HRIS) are adopted and used in various organizations all over the world. Following on this trend, universities including those in South Africa have also adopted and are using such systems for their human resource (HR) purposes. However there is still a lack of understanding on how organizations such as universities adopt and use HRIS. This paper provides a conceptual...
Tourism is one of important resources in Japanese economy. The number of tourists has been increasing year and year. And the divergence and personalization for tourists are required and new tourism function and deployment are expected to attract those tourists. In this paper, we suggest a new tourist information system, by the augmented reality using the information of the beacon which can provide...
This paper presents an investigation into the changing nature of user involvement in Information System Development (ISD) projects. This analysis shows the representative papers that have been published on user involvement in ISD projects and identifies areas requiring further investigation and research. Considering different project contexts the need for a new approach where an ISD project is steeped...
In this paper, we propose a statistical test to determine whether a given word is used as a polysemic word or not. The statistic of the word in this test roughly corresponds to the fluctuation in the senses of the neighboring words a nd the word itself. Even though the sense of a word corresponds to a single vector, we discuss how polysemy of the words affects the position of vectors. Finally, we...
With the advent of Internet technologies, information privacy has emerged as an important but complicated notion that is difficult to articulate and conceptualize in technological system design. In this study we identify the key baseline factors for designing privacy-enhancing systems from users' perspective. Utilizing Solove's pragmatic approach to investigate global users' conceptualization of information...
In mobile computing developers will need to develop applications that will interact with the end user. Context-aware applications notify or ask users what they want based on what they have sensed or on a user profile. Event-driven mobile computing detects conditions of interest to users and notifies them accordingly. In this paper we discuss the importance and challenges in designing event-driven...
Nowadays organizations are becoming even more focused on their business processes (BP) and in addition increasing interest in goal-oriented BP. Traditional BP simulation approaches consider BP as a pre-defined sequence of activities, limiting possibilities to adapt a process model to changes occurring in the business environment. To be able to use dynamic BP in simulation we need an approach, which...
Information Technology Governance (ITG) is the deliberate behaviour adopted by senior management in her corporate design of IT and for the enterprise use to enable continuous performance. ITG Absorptive Capacity (ACAP) is the organisational competence in recognising, acquiring or creating valuable new business-IT knowledge, assimilating or transforming and applying it, to ensure continuous performance...
In the context of meeting the increasing demand for healthcare services, hospitals have to promote a continuous improvement of quality while reducing costs. For that, there is a serious obligation to search for new ways of improvement. A good management of healthcare supply chain (HSC) flows may ensure a better performance and enhanced healthcare services quality. Considered as the most critical flow...
How can students be included as critical stakeholders in the systems and services provided by a university? To address the whole student experience, we engaged students and employees at a large Swedish university in a vision seminar process to elicit how these groups envisioned an ideal future university, and the necessary changes to technology and organisational structures required to achieve this...
In the collaborative systems, in order to establish successful and protected collaboration, the trust management is first established between the participating entities and the trust score of each entity is calculated. This score is obtained based on the three trust criteria (satisfaction, reputation and recommendation) that are redefined and reused in our model: Tr-OrBAC. The evaluation of these...
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) value relates to the extent to which its investment have created value for an organization. The issues of ERP value are how to define and to measure ERP value. Therefore, the objectives of this research are not only to develop a model for ERP value but also to define and to measure ERP value in the post-implementation stage. Using the Resource-Based View (RBV) approach,...
