We propose a simple model to compute the probability of success under a quorum sensing strategy. We show that a quorum sensing strategy has a higher probability of success than an individualistic strategy when, for instance, the probability of success for a single individual is low and the cost of building a quorum is not too high. On the other hand if the cost of building a quorum is too high ...

Ten years ago, we presented the DeLone and McLean Information Systems (IS) Success Model as a framework and model for measuring the complexdependent variable in IS research. In this paper, we discuss many of the important IS success research contributions of the last decade, focusing especially on research efforts that apply, validate, challenge, and propose enhancements to our original model. ...

This empirical study attempts to verify non-linearity relationships among three quality dimensions and user satisfaction from the DeLone and McLean IS Success Model. We use survey data from Agriculture integrated eXcellence systems (AgriX) users and a multiple regression analysis with dummy variables to analyze separately high and low performance groups. Results from the analysis suggest that i...

Employee portals are utilized by many companies to improve information exchange and communication between their employees as well as to better support business processes. Assessing the benefits of employee portals has become important, owing to limited IT budgets and the need to justify investments in portals. In this paper, we propose a conceptual model for measuring the effectiveness of emplo...

The present research-in-progress makes significant contribution to the research in the e-enabled supply chain management (eSCM) area by extending the DeLone and McLean information systems success model and e-commerce success model to an eSCM success model. It also extends the earlier Mahmood et al. (2005) eSCM success model by incorporating the service quality construct introduced in the DeLone...

Evaluation of the success of professional virtual communities (VCs) has been the focus of many organizations. However, there are still few empirical studies conducted to examine online knowledge sharing behavior that has been thought as the most important element for VC success. In this study, by integrating two schools of thoughts (trust theory and self-efficacy expectation) with IS Success Mo...
