The aim of this study is to investigate, on the one hand, the main effects of personal innovativeness and familiarity on perceived community support in the domain of the social network site Tuenti, and, on the other hand, the moderating effects of personal innovativeness on relationships between familiarity and perceived community support. A Structural Equation Modelling, specifically Partial L...

Knowledge network is one of the new strategies of knowledge management and it,s rationale of it is create synergy effects through a combination of effective human resources knowledge workers and knowledge bases of allied companies. Today, the face of complex structural issues and various stakeholders,s views to it, leading to increase use of software systems, particularly in managerial issues t...

Structural balance theory has proven useful for delineating the blockmodel structure of signed social networks. Even so, most of the observed signed networks are not perfectly balanced. One possibility for this is that in examining the dynamics underlying the generation of signed social networks, insufficient attention has been given to other processes and features of signed networks. These inc...

Although the number of users has been growing exponentially in SNSs, some SNSs are facing a financial crisis and might be shut down in the near future. Therefore, understand users' incentives to switch to another SNS has great influence on operators' business performance. The study extended "Push-Pull-Mooring" migratory theory to explain the switching behaviors of users in SNS. Structural equat...

Despite almost thirty years of research in the area of telework, the findings regarding outcomes remain equivocal (Bailey and Kurland, 2002). This research in progress hopes to advance understanding by identifying a key mechanism by which telework affects performance, specifically its influence on the social network properties of cohesion, power and structural holes. With knowledge of how the n...

Object-Oriented software structures represent multi-level characteristics. In this paper, two parameters -structural holes and closeness used in complex networks are introduced to study topological characteristics of software networks from multi-granularity perspective. By this method, software networks are observed and analyzed in three levels: package granularity, class granularity and method...
