Previous research suggested that the performance of interorganisational processes can be influenced by eight factors: stakeholders, competition, information technology, market network design, perceived risk, process design, information, and trust. This paper specifically focuses on the consequences of market network redesign for interorganisational processes. A distinction is made between trans...

Though auctions show a prevailing dominance in electronic markets, our understanding of how auctions affect human behaviour is still rather limited. In this paper we analyse the impact of emotional processes on the decision making of human agents in electronic auctions. The analysis is based on a physio-economic study, in which human agents take part in a Dutch auction experiment, while their p...

This chapter explores the private and social desirability of information transparency of a business-to-business (B2B) electronic market that provides an online platform for information transmission. The abundance of transaction data available on the Internet tends to make information more transparent in B2B electronic markets. In such a transparent environment, it becomes easier for firms to ob...

This paper takes the view that providers of electronic markets are to be considered as economic actors in a strategic game played with potential buyers and sellers. The crucial assumption clearly concerns the choice of instruments that a market provider is considered to have at hand. Contrary to large parts of mainstream economic theory, which assume a simple perfect auction market setting guar...

Strengthening the user perception of privacy and trust on the Internet will require userfocused technological approaches, enforceable privacy laws, and business interventions. We propose a novel user-focused business model for privacy with a supporting client-side e-privacy architecture. The e-privacy business model is detailed in terms of target markets and stakeholders, value or revenue model...

There is an increase in Augmented Reality (AR) adoption in the tourism sector and increasingly visitor attractions, museums and art galleries start to use AR for the enhancement of the visitor experience. However, smaller organisations often fear high investments without the proof of concept due to risks of failures. Therefore, the present study uses a small museum in Manchester to investigate ...

T developments combine previously distinct technologies that result in converging markets. In converging markets, firms from different industries compete against each other, often for the first time. We propose that firms introducing new products in converging markets will learn vicariously from other firms in the market. Further, we propose that this learning will vary across the dual-technolo...
