摘要:Computer chargeback systems are installed to meet various data processing objectives. One objective is to increase user involvement in decisions regarding information systems development and use. Presumably, increasing user involvement will result in more effective information systems. In a field study the authors examine the relationship between various characteristics of a computer chargeback system, the quality of the chargeback system's user interface, user involvement, and user attitudes ...

摘要:This article describes a reasonable scenario for in technology, and its use within a major organization in the year 1990. The scenario is based upon a model used at Xerox to portray the use of Information Systems (IS) internally within the corporation in the year 1990. Assumptions are made about the technology and economics, and by coupling these with observed trend linos from historical data, predictions about the 1990 IS organization, technology, investment requirements, and support structur...
