The basic argument underlying this model is that computer-supported groups, given adequate time, will exchange enough social information to develop strong relatio...

Electronic Document Management (EDM) promises major product...

摘要:Many EDI researchers and practitioners have recognized the importance of high penetration levels for the success of EDI. Unfortunately, such penetration is partly impeded by the resistance of small companies to become EDI capable. To investigate this issue, three major factors are identified that influence the EDI adoption practices of small firms. These factors are: organizational readiness (because of the low levels of IT sophistication and resource availability of small firms), external pre...

To provide as broad a perspective as possible, the study was conducted by a joint industry/academ...
