Enterprise systems have the potential to bring immense benefits to organizations, but are often seen as falling short of that promise. This paper reports an on-going research project that relates the fit between enterprise systems and the nature of intraorganizational workflow interdependencies. Using task-technology fit theory, we propose that enterprise systems are best suited to organization...

Purpose – This paper aims to study the adoption of mobile technology in business and its determinants. A diagnostic tool for proper adoption of mobile technology is developed. Design/methodology/approach – Grounded on the fit-viability framework, the paper uses a multi-case study via the fit and viability dimensions to examine the success or failure of mobile technology applications in business...

Information technology (IT) is more likely to have a positive impact on individual performance if the capabilities it has more closely matches the tasks that the individual must perform. The objective of this research is to examine how improvements in the information quality can lead to quantifiable improvements in individual performance. A case study involving a spatial decision support system...

The use of virtualisation technology on modern standard PC hardware has become popular in the recent years. This paper presents the VM-FIT architecture, which uses virtualisation for realising fault and intrusion tolerant networkbased services. The VM-FIT infrastructure intercepts the client–service interaction at the hypervisor level, below the guest operating system that hosts a service imple...

The use of social technology in classroom has shown various results. This paper focuses on using social technology as a casebased learning tool. A total of 116 students in a public university in Thailand were formed into teams, and spent two weeks in discussing a Harvard business case via the social technology; Edmodo. After the experiment, an online survey is conducted with these participants ...

Users’ adaptation behaviors are vital to the success of the system if there is a poor fit between task and technology at the initial post-adoption stage. However, prior studies have mixed results on how users adapt to the fit challenge. We draw on coping theory and appraisal theory of emotion to develop an encounter-emotion-coping framework to reconcile the mixed results by exploring the links ...

Enterprise architecture frameworks provide a basis to systematically document and manage the information technology assets of an organization. Numerous frameworks have emerged to support large scale organizations and government entities but to date there has been no empirical support to determine if they meet the needs of their users. We present a research model to enable empirical testing of t...

1. Abstract: The construction of facial composites by assembling individual facial features is common in criminal investigations. Arguably, the best known such method is E-FIT (electronic facial identication technique). However, although humans have excellent facial recognition ability, it is widely recognised that they often have great difficulty recalling facial characteristics in sufficient ...

BACKGROUND Mobile health (mHealth) is a growing field aimed at developing mobile information and communication technologies for healthcare. Adolescents are known for their ubiquitous use of mobile technologies in everyday life. However, the use of mHealth tools among adolescents is not well described. OBJECTIVE We examined the usability of four commonly used mobile devices (an iPhone, an Andr...

The present study contributes to individual level information systems research by addressing an important and yet unanswered research question. The present study is a part of a large study conducted to explore and understand impact of technology allocation among Indian IT professionals. In the first part of the study we conducted a qualitative study based on grounded theory methodology. Our fin...
