Managing Incompatible Impacts Of Organizational Values On Knowledge Sharing, Shahla Ghobadi Dr
Managing Incompatible Impacts Of Organizational Values On Knowledge Sharing, Shahla Ghobadi Dr
shahla ghobadi Dr
At any given time the two rival organizational values cooperation and competition coexist in any team and/or organization in different intensities and mix, depending on both internal factors (e.g., culture, task dimensions of accuracy and speed) and external factors (e.g., market and competitive forces). However, determining that desirable intensity and mix of these two values seems to be a challenging task in the current literature and no explicit method currently exists for measuring factors that may lead to determination of such desirable mix. Considering the crucial impacts of these values on organizational behaviours, this in turn may result in loss …
End User As Application Developer For Decision Support, Shah Jahan Miah
End User As Application Developer For Decision Support, Shah Jahan Miah
Dr Shah Jahan Miah
This paper discusses a new generation end-user centred information service view, for developing decision support applications. The tailorable solution allows specific applications to be designed by end-users, where integrity is assured by the architecture’s control in knowledge-based systems. In the development approach, the end-users at different level engage in interaction for secondary application creation. This initiative reinforces a shift from the traditional IS development process to a new provision where end-users can actively participate for a secondary application design. A secondary application design can be seen as a secondary activity for tailoring applications by the end users so that it …
Data Governance: Organisationskonzept Für Das Konzernweite Datenqualitätsmanagement, Kristin Weber, Boris Otto, Hubert Oesterle
Data Governance: Organisationskonzept Für Das Konzernweite Datenqualitätsmanagement, Kristin Weber, Boris Otto, Hubert Oesterle
Hubert Oesterle
Unternehmen die Datenqualität konzernweit organisieren wollen, stehen vor der Herausforderung, eine geeignete Form zu finden. Spezielle Anforderungen sind die Berücksichtigung unterschiedlicher Interessen und die Koordination aller Anspruchsgruppen. Bisher fehlen sowohl praktische Erfahrungen als auch wissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzungen, so dass Fragen nach der aufbauorganisatorischen Einordnung, der Abstimmung mit anderen Unternehmensbereichen und die Abhängigkeit vom Unternehmenskontext unbeantwortet bleiben. Der vorliegende Beitrag zeigt Möglichkeiten für die Organisation des Datenqualitätsmanagements auf und versucht Antworten auf die Fragen zu finden. Er schlägt die Einrichtung eines Shared Service Centers vor, stellt ein Data-Governance-Modell zur Definition konzernweiter Verantwortlichkeiten für Datenqualitätsmanagement vor und zeigt einen situativen Ansatz für die …

A Method For Consortial Research, Hubert Österle, Boris Otto
A Method For Consortial Research, Hubert Österle, Boris Otto
Boris Otto
Design oriented research in information systems faces two major challenges: the effort to capture practitioners’ knowledge on one hand (relevance) and the evidence to fulfill scientific requirements (rigor). In practice, businesses employ at least a centuple of the resources which are available in research for the design and implementation of innovative solutions based on information technology. For the researcher, it is almost impossible just to oversee the state of practice, in addition to the scientific body of knowledge. Since based on a single case, the engagement of an individual company in a collaborative research environment, e.g. in action research, is …

A Methodology To Allow Rural Extension Professionals To Build (With Don Kerr And John Gammack), Shah Jahan Miah
A Methodology To Allow Rural Extension Professionals To Build (With Don Kerr And John Gammack), Shah Jahan Miah
Dr Shah Jahan Miah
Expert systems (ES) development technology has been used to build rural business applications in the past but these have usually been developed using traditional expert systems shells. This paper introduces a new architecture for the development of a design environment where the domain experts can build a knowledge base for target-specific ES for rural business operators. The system allows rural business operators to use their own knowledge in building their own, target-specific ES for tailored development to their own specific requirements. At this stage, this reusable design environment caters for the Australian dairy industry but in the long run we …

Ontoeng:A Design Method For Ontology Engineering In Information Systems, Mutaz M. Al-Debei, Guy Fitzgerald
Ontoeng:A Design Method For Ontology Engineering In Information Systems, Mutaz M. Al-Debei, Guy Fitzgerald
Dr. Mutaz M. Al-Debei
This paper addresses the design problem relating to ontology engineering in the discipline of information systems. Ontology engineering is a realm that covers issues related to ontology development and use throughout its life span. Nowadays, ontology as a new innovation promises to improve the design, semantic integration, and utilization of information systems. Ontologies are the backbone of knowledge-based systems. In addition, they establish sharable and reusable common understanding of specific domains amongst people, information systems, and software agents. Notwithstanding, the ontology engineering literature does not provide adequate guidance on how to build, evaluate, and maintain ontologies. On the basis of …
One Size Does Not Fit All – A Contingency Approach To Data Governance, Kristin Weber, Boris Otto, Hubert Oesterle
One Size Does Not Fit All – A Contingency Approach To Data Governance, Kristin Weber, Boris Otto, Hubert Oesterle
Hubert Oesterle
Enterprizes need Data Quality Management (DQM) to respond to strategic and operational challenges demanding high-quality corporate data. Hitherto, companies have mostly assigned accountabilities for DQM to Information Technology (IT) departments. They have thereby neglected the organizational issues critical to successful DQM. With data governance, however, companies may implement corporate-wide accountabilities for DQM that encompass professionals from business and IT departments. This research aims at starting a scientific discussion on data governance by transferring concepts from IT governance and organizational theory to the previously largely ignored field of data governance. The article presents the first results of a community action research …
Time As Symbolic Currency In Knowledge Work, Dariusz Jemielniak
Time As Symbolic Currency In Knowledge Work, Dariusz Jemielniak
Dariusz Jemielniak
The paper discusses the issue of time slips in software development. Increasing time sacrifices toward work constitutes an important part of modern organizational environment. In fact, the reign over time is a crucial element in controlling the labor process. Yet a lack of cultural studies covering different approaches to this issue remains—particularly those focusing on high-skilled salaried workers. This article is a small attempt to fill this gap, based on an analysis of unstructured qualitative interviews with high-tech professionals from a B2B software company. It focuses on the issue of timing in IT projects, as perceived by software engineers. The …

Knowledge Management: Fad Or Enduring Organizational Concept?, Dariusz Jemielniak, Jerzy Kociatkiewicz
Dariusz Jemielniak
Knowledge management and knowledge-intensive work are two of today’s hot buzzwords, though both already have a history of managerial usage. While some authors claim that knowledge is the most important organizational asset in contemporary society, others retort that much of knowledge management literature and practical solutions are just perfunctory and propagandist and many, if not most, managerial polices rely on manipulation of emotions and identity creation. This chapter aims to capitalize on this fascinating and timely research area. We want to present the current business fad of knowledge-management in terms of excess and forgetful repetition of ideas. We look at …
