Portals And Task Innovation: A Theoretical Framework Founded On Business Intelligence Thinking, Mutaz M. Al-Debei, Dima Jalal
Portals And Task Innovation: A Theoretical Framework Founded On Business Intelligence Thinking, Mutaz M. Al-Debei, Dima Jalal
Dr. Mutaz M. Al-Debei
The main aim of this study is to develop a theoretical framework for the success of Web portals in promoting task innovation. This is deemed significant as yet little research has tackled this important domain from the business intelligence perspective. The D&M IS Success Model was used as a foundational theory and then was refined to match the context of the current research. Importantly, in this study, system quality and information quality constructs were defined on the basis of portals' characteristics since a mapping was conducted between the most significant functions and features of Web portals and quality constructs. The …

A Framework Of Value Exchange And Role Playing In Web 2.0 Websites, Mutaz M. Al-Debei, Enas M. Al-Lozi
Dr. Mutaz M. Al-Debei
Digitally engaged communities can be described as communities created and evolved within Web 2.0 Websites such as Facebook, Bebo, and Twitter. The growing importance of digitally engaged communities calls for the need to efficiently manage the building blocks of sustaining a healthy community. The initial operation of any digitally-engaged community depends on the existence of its own members, the beneficial values created and exchanged, and the relationships interlinking both. However, the level of contribution and involvement might vary depending on the benefits being gratified from engaging in such communities. In other words, motivations for participating and getting involved are purposive; …
Conceptual Modelling And The Quality Of Ontologies: Endurantism Vs. Perdurantism, Mutaz M. Al-Debei, Mohammad Mourhaf Al Asswad, Sergio De Cesare, Mark Lycett
Conceptual Modelling And The Quality Of Ontologies: Endurantism Vs. Perdurantism, Mutaz M. Al-Debei, Mohammad Mourhaf Al Asswad, Sergio De Cesare, Mark Lycett
Dr. Mutaz M. Al-Debei
Ontologies are key enablers for sharing precise and machine-understandable semantics among different applications and parties. Yet, for ontologies to meet these expectations, their quality must be of a good standard. The quality of an ontology is strongly based on the design method employed. This paper addresses the design problems related to the modelling of ontologies, with specific concentration on the issues related to the quality of the conceptualisations produced. The paper aims to demonstrate the impact of the modelling paradigm adopted on the quality of ontological models and, consequently, the potential impact that such a decision can have in relation …
Implementations Of Ict Innovations: A Comparative Analysis In Terms Of Challenges Between Developed And Developing Countries, Mutaz Al-Debei, Enas Al-Lozi
Implementations Of Ict Innovations: A Comparative Analysis In Terms Of Challenges Between Developed And Developing Countries, Mutaz Al-Debei, Enas Al-Lozi
Dr. Mutaz M. Al-Debei
The main aim of this paper is to achieve a depth of understanding of the various similarities and differences in terms of challenges between developed and developing countries and in regards to the implementation of ICT innovations. Indeed, advances in Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have brought many innovations to the field of Information Systems (IS). Despite agreements on their importance to the success of organizations, the implementation processes of such innovations are multifaceted and require proper addressing of a wide-spread issues and challenges. In this study, we address this matter by first; synthesizing a comprehensive body of recent and …
