  摘要：Over the past 15 years, the Society for Information Management (SIM) has periodically surveyed its members to determine the most critical issues in IS management. Again in 1994-95, SIM institutional and board members were asked to consider what they felt were the most critical issues facing IS executives over the next three to five years. Signaling an evolutionary shift in IS management, this study shows that business relationship issues have declined in importance compared to technology infra...

• Measuring the extent of EDI usage in complex organizations: Strategies and illustrative examples AI翻译

  摘要：As interest into the nature and value of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) within organizations continues to grow, it becomes increasingly desirable to establish a tactical linkage between the strategic value of EDI and observed operational benefits. This article provides such a tactical linkage by presenting an approach to EDI measurement consisting of four facets: volume, diversity, breadth, and depth of a firm's EDI initiatives. Each of these facets is defined and then described through its...
• Information technology for local administration support: The governorates project in Egypt AI翻译
  作者：Nidumolu, SR; Goodman, SE; Vogel, DR; Danowitz, AK
  摘要：Experience with information technology (IT) implementation in the local administrations of less developed countries (LDCs) has been largely disappointing. Conventional wisdom suggests that such implementation efforts are usually inappropriate to the information-poor environments of many LDCs. This study describes the Governorates Project in Egypt, which seems to have been an encouraging exception to such ''wisdom.'' The project, which was initiated in 1987 by the Egyptian Cabinet's Information...
• Controlling prototype development through risk analysis AI翻译

  摘要：This article presents a new approach to the management of evolutionary prototyping projects. The prototyping approach to systems development emphasizes learning and facilitates meaningful communication between systems developers and users. These benefits are important for rapid creation of flexible, usable information resources that are well-tuned to present and future business needs. The main unsolved problem in prototyping is the difficulty in controlling such projects. This problem severely...
• Productivity, business profitability, and consumer surplus: Three different measures of information technology value AI翻译
  作者：Hitt, LM; Brynjolfsson, E
  摘要：The business value of information technology (IT) has been debated for a number of years. While some authors have attributed large productivity improvements and substantial consumer benefits to IT, others report that IT has not had any bottom line impact on business profitability. This paper focuses on the fact that while productivity, consumer value, and business profitability are related they are ultimately separate questions. Accordingly, the empirical results on IT value depend heavily on ...

• Issues and concerns about computer-supported meetings: The facilitator's perspective AI翻译
  作者：Niederman, F; Beise, CM; Beranek, PM
  作者单位：University System of Georgia; Georgia State University
  摘要：In an effort to boost meeting productivity and success, managers may employ trained group facilitators. They may also implement group support systems (GSS) for the same reason. The two approaches can be taken separately or together. In this study, in-depth interviews with 37 practicing facilitators provided their perspectives on critical factors that influence meeting success and potential benefits and concerns with the use of GSS. Respondents focused on a core of communication and group proce...
• Computer-based monitoring: Common perceptions and empirical results AI翻译
  作者：George, JF
  摘要：Computer-based monitoring, the practice of collecting performance information on employees through the computers they use at work, continues to be a popular topic. How mush is known about computer-based monitoring as it is practiced in the workplace? Unfortunately, very little, even though much has been written on the subject. This article reports on five case studies of organizations that employ computer-based monitoring to collect performance data on clerical workers. Although all five organ...
