Mobile Dm Coupon Promotion In Japan: A Case Study On Response Behavior Changes In Services Consumption, Shahriar Akter
Shahriar Akter
This chapter investigates the changes in customers’ responses to mobile direct mail (DM) coupons on the shop visit probability (SVP) of a beauty parlor. Two experiments were carried out to examine the promotional effects of mobile DM coupons. The first experiment, conducted in 2004, compared mobile DM coupons with postcard DM coupons. The mobile DM coupons were found to have no effect on SVP, although positive effects were observed for postcard DM coupons. The second experiment, conducted in 2005 with three types of mobile DM coupons, compared the responses of new customers with those of repeat customers. The results varied …

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 …

An Information System Design Theory For And Rfid University-Based Laboratory, S. F. Wamba, Katina Michael
An Information System Design Theory For And Rfid University-Based Laboratory, S. F. Wamba, Katina Michael
Professor Katina Michael
RFID technology is defined as a wireless automatic identification and data capture (AIDC) technology and is considered as “the next big thing” in the management and “the next revolution in supply chain”. Recently, the topic has attracted the interest of the industrial community as well as the scientific community. Following this tendency, this paper applies an Information Systems Design Theory (ISDT) for an RFID-based University Laboratory. For practitioners, the paper provides some insights into the set-up and use of RFID laboratory in university settings, and at the same time, it offers a set of hypotheses that can be empirically tested.

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 …

Niagara Falls, New York was home to the 13th Annual Vincentian International Conference Promoting Business Ethics sponsored by DePaul University (Chicago, IL), Niagara University (Niagara, NY), and St. John’s University (New York, NY), the three American universities sponsored by the Congregation of the Mission (the Vincentians). Conferences in the past had specific themes and corresponding paper presentations focused on a particular topic. This one intentionally did not have a central organizing subject matter to allow for greater diversity. Leaders from the academic and corporate sectors, representing 30 countries, submitted excellent papers on a broad range of ethical issues. This rich …
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

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 …

Action Research In Emerging Technologies In Health Information Systems: Creating A Mobile Information Environment In A Hospital Ward, Linda Dawson, Julie Fisher, Stephen Weeding, Liza Heslop, Andrew Howard
Associate Professor Linda Dawson
Wireless networks, mobile devices and associated applications are key emerging technologies ideal for nomadic workers such as clinicians in hospital ward settings. These mobile information environments can potentially enhance clinicians’ use of patient management and clinical systems by providing decision support and clinical information at the bedside or point of care. Such technologies need to be critically assessed in a hospital environment for their wider potential and application for delivery of information at the point of care. This paper describes the use of action research methods in a project which analysed an existing clinical Information Communication Technology (ICT) environment in …
