This paper introduces the narrative network as a device for representing patterns of “technology in use.” The narrative network offers a novel conceptual vocabulary for the description of information and communication technologies (ICTs) and their relationship to organizational forms. We argue that as ICTs have become increasingly modular and recombinable, so have organizational processes and f...

In this paper we study topology of the variety of closed pla-nar n-gons with given side lengths l1,. .. , ln. The moduli space M ℓ where ℓ = (l1,. .. , ln), encodes the shapes of all such n-gons. We describe the Betti numbers of the moduli spaces M ℓ as functions of the length vector ℓ = (l1,. .. , ln). We also find sharp upper bounds on the sum of Betti numbers of M ℓ depending only on the num...

Systemic validity is generally in conformity with the understanding of adopted by legal officials. On other hand, it suffers from an inability to account for why enactment systemic criteria constitutes a norm. Axio-systemic aims compensate this deficiency introducing hybrid validity. While component continues descriptive and explanatory advantages, minimum axiological element guarantees that en...

It is often assumed that the information representations used in interactive information systems are grounded firmly and objectively in mathematics. This positivist view is at odds, however, with contemporary mathematics and philosophy of science, which sees subjective, social, and situated symbol systems — semiology — at the base of all human information use. We describe some of the reasons be...

Statistical representations in the popular almanacs published at the end of the 19th century in the Habsburg Empire are an early prototype of visualizing statistical data for popular consumption and informing the public of an ethnically and linguistically differentiated society. The purpose of this article is to analyze these statistical representations using a combination of humanistic and vis...

In this paper, I introduce the notion of participative epistemology and discuss how it can contribute to make social data science more accountable. do so by offering case a project where ethnographic, computational sequence analysis methods have been used in combination. By presenting here greater detail research design pilot results using professional networking understand careers IT industry ...

ABSTRACTThis study aims to investigate the dominance of research with paradigm positivism in accounting, especially related internal function audit. The dominant accounting date is positivist paradigm. In audit, all things are not only seen from facts that on surface and concluded directly existing data, but also must understand meaning contained it. Therefore, it necessary have another contrad...
