• Competitive Actions and Dynamics in the Digital Age: An Empirical Investigation of Social Networking Firms AI翻译
  作者：Gnyawali, Devi R.; Fan, Weiguo; Penner, James
  作者单位：Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University
  摘要：This paper examines two important questions in the context of the social networking services (SNS) firms: what kind of competitive moves do SNS firms undertake and to what extent do the competitive moves impact firm performance? We blend the literature streams on information systems (IS) and strategic management and argue that given the unique characteristics of this nascent industry, SNS firms' competitive moves are likely to focus on value cocreation, as well as enhancement of the repertoire...
• Visualization of Network Concepts: The Impact of Working Memory Capacity Differences AI翻译
  作者：Zhu, Bin; Watts, Stephanie A.
  作者单位：Boston University
  摘要：As networks of all forms become ubiquitous, the network-based information they generate is increasingly being used in a wide variety of analysis tasks. In organizations, social network analysis techniques are being applied to a number of domains, particularly the understanding of knowledge stocks and flows. Because this information is generated from large data sets, computerized visualizations of it are very helpful for accomplishing these complex tasks. This paper presents a model for evaluat...
• Reframing the Dominant Quests of Information Systems Strategy Research for Complex Adaptive Business Systems AI翻译

  摘要：We review and reframe three main quests of research on information systems (IS) strategy: (1) the strategic alignment quest, (2) the integration quest, and (3) the sustained competitive advantage quest. The assumptions and logic of these quests have become less relevant in increasingly complex adaptive business systems (CABS), where the competitive performance landscapes of products and services are highly dynamic and co-evolve. We revise the strategic alignment quest to propose a co-evolution...
• Assessing Screening and Evaluation Decision Support Systems: A Resource-Matching Approach AI翻译

  摘要：This research explores how consumers use online decision aids with screening and evaluation support functionalities under varying product attribute-load conditions. Drawing on resource-matching theory, we conducted a 3 x 2 factorial experiment to test the interaction between decision aid features (i.e., low versus high-screening support, and aids with weight assignment and computation decision tools) and attribute load (i.e., large versus small number of product attributes) on decision perform...

  摘要：Interest in the area of virtual work continues to increase with articles being written from different disciplinary perspectives-e. g., information systems (IS), management, psychology, and transportation. In this paper, we map research on virtual work to (a) understand the intellectual base from which this field has emerged, (b) explore how this field has evolved over time, and (c) identify clusters of research themes that have emerged over time and the relationships between them. Specifically...
• Changing the Competitive Landscape: Continuous Innovation Through IT-Enabled Knowledge Capabilities AI翻译
  作者：Joshi, K. D.; Chi, Lei; Datta, Avimanyu; Han, Shu
  作者单位：Washington State University; Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute; Yeshiva University
  摘要：We theoretically and empirically investigate the relationship between information technology (IT) and firm innovation. Invoking absorptive capacity (ACAP) theory, we introduce and develop the concepts of three types of IT-enabled knowledge capabilities. Firm innovation is examined through two observable innovation outcomes: patents, and new product and service introductions. These innovation outcomes are often labeled as competitive actions aggressively undertaken by firms to gain market share...
• An Empirical Analysis of Software Vendors' Patch Release Behavior: Impact of Vulnerability Disclosure AI翻译
  作者：Arora, Ashish; Krishnan, Ramayya; Telang, Rahul; Yang, Yubao
  作者单位：Carnegie Mellon University
  摘要：A key aspect of better and more secure software is timely patch release by software vendors for the vulnerabilities in their products. Software vulnerability disclosure, which refers to the publication of vulnerability information, has generated intense debate. An important consideration in this debate is the behavior of software vendors. How quickly do vendors patch vulnerabilities and how does disclosure affect patch release time? This paper compiles a unique data set from the Computer Emerg...
• On Evaluating Information Revelation Policies in Procurement Auctions: A Markov Decision Process Approach AI翻译
  作者：Greenwald, Amy; Kannan, Karthik; Krishnan, Ramayya
  作者单位：Brown University; Purdue University System; Purdue University; Carnegie Mellon University
  摘要：Each market session in a reverse electronic marketplace features a procurer and many suppliers. An important attribute of a market session chosen by the procurer is its information revelation policy. The revelation policy determines the information (such as the number of competitors, the winning bids, etc.) that will be revealed to participating suppliers at the conclusion of each market session. Suppliers participating in multiple market sessions use strategic bidding and fake their own cost ...
• The Digital Transformation of Healthcare: Current Status and the Road Ahead AI翻译

  摘要：As the United States expends extraordinary efforts toward the digitization of its health-care system, and as policy makers across the globe look to information technology (IT) as a means of making health-care systems safer, more affordable, and more accessible, a rare and remarkable opportunity has emerged for the information systems research community to leverage its in-depth knowledge to both advance theory and influence practice and policy. Although health IT (HIT) has tremendous potential ...
