The Activity Theoretical Iterative Evaluation Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper is an academic reflection on the Activity Theoretical Iterative Evaluation Method (ATIEM). ATIEM is based on Activity Theory (AT), and aims to concretise the abstract concepts of AT into a practical method for evaluation that can be applied by IS practitioners without requiring in-depth knowledge of the theory. We describe how the method was developed, its links to AT, and the application of ATIEM in a case study. We then discuss our reflections on the method, which are framed as contradictions. Additional issues and recommendations also emerged from the development and application of ATIEM, and these are addressed in the subsequent section of this paper, followed by some conclusions.

A New Two-stage Iterative Method for Linear Systems and Its Application in Solving Poisson's Equation
In the current study we investigate the two-stage iterative method for solving linear systems. Our new results shows which splitting generates convergence fast in iterative methods. Finally, we solve the Poisson-Block tridiagonal matrix from Poisson's equation which arises in mechanical engineering and theoretical physics. Numerical computations are presented based on a particular linear system...
