This assessment is made on five separate, but related, attributes of each system in the portfolio: importance, investment, technical quality, use, and management value. The Health Grid is introduced as a way of representi...

摘要:This study addresses three key issues related to media differences among computer-mediated groups meeting face-to-face, synchronously, and asynchronously: First, do groups using different media perceive characteristics of these media differently! Second, do media-related perceptions remain static or change as they are used over time? And finally, do media differences result in performance differences, i.e., do richer media result in better performance for equivocal tasks as predicted by bandwi...

Groups electronically brainstormed on intact tasks (where all parts of the task were presented simultaneously) or on partitioned tasks (where three subcategories of the task were presented to the groups). The time periods in which groups worked were either one 30-minute lime period or three 10-minute periods separated...

The commentary begins by defining what is meant by relevancy in the context of academic research. It then explains why there is a lack of attention to relevance within the IS scholarly literature. Next, actions that can be taken to mak...
