Information Technology’S Influence On Productivity, Jason Smith
Information Technology’S Influence On Productivity, Jason Smith
Student Work
Previous research has had mixed results correlating information technology investments to increases in productivity. This research surveyed the perceptions of information technology managers to determine the impact that information technology, decentralized decision making, and improved business processes have on productivity. It concluded that information technology’s influence on productivity is to magnify the effect of decentralized decision making and improved business processes.
Guidelines For Evaluating Patterns In The Is Domain, Deepak Khazanchi, John D. Murphy, Stacie Clarke Petter
Guidelines For Evaluating Patterns In The Is Domain, Deepak Khazanchi, John D. Murphy, Stacie Clarke Petter
Information Systems and Quantitative Analysis Faculty Proceedings & Presentations
Patterns were originally developed in the field of architecture as a mechanism for communicating good solutions to recurring classes of problems. Since then researchers have created patterns to provide guidance and solutions associated with virtual project management, software development and engineering, human computer interaction, and design science research. However, there has been limited emphasis on developing guidelines for evaluating the validity of patterns. In this paper, we propose an evaluation framework for patterns that draws upon the literature associated with patterns, philosophy of science and research methods. The evaluation framework can be used to validate patterns in a more consistent …
From Profiles To Patterns: A New View Of Task-Technology Fit, Ilze Zigurs, Deepak Khazanchi
From Profiles To Patterns: A New View Of Task-Technology Fit, Ilze Zigurs, Deepak Khazanchi

Continuing advances in the capabilities of communication and information technologies provide a wide array of interesting ways for people to collaborate across space, time, cultures, and organizational boundaries. While the use of collaboration technologies spreads, researchers seek answers to understanding how best to match different technology capabilities with the tasks that teams need to accomplish. Different theories of task-technology fit have been promoted and these theories help to identify key issues of interest to both researchers and practitioners who seek the answer to the best technology support for collaboration. We examine existing theories of fit for collaboration technology and propose …
Risk Analysis In Extended Enterprise Environments: Identification Of Critical Risk Factors In B2b E-Commerce Relationships, Steve G. Sutton, Clark Hampton, Deepak Khazanchi, Vicky Arnold
Risk Analysis In Extended Enterprise Environments: Identification Of Critical Risk Factors In B2b E-Commerce Relationships, Steve G. Sutton, Clark Hampton, Deepak Khazanchi, Vicky Arnold
Information Systems and Quantitative Analysis Faculty Publications
The focus of this study is to identify the critical risk factors that can be used to assess the impact of B2B e-commerce on overall enterprise risk. We apply the Khazanchi and Sutton (2001) framework for B2B e-commerce assurance is applied as the organizing conceptual model for the study. The framework focuses on three primary risk components: (1) technical risks, (2) application-user risks, and (3) business risks. To identify a critical set of B2B risk factors, structured focus groups applying a nominal group technique were conducted with three internal constituency groups (corporate groups consisting of IS security, internal IT audit, …
Information Technology Adoption By Small Businesses In Minority And Ethnic Communities, Sajda Qureshi, Anne S. York
Information Technology Adoption By Small Businesses In Minority And Ethnic Communities, Sajda Qureshi, Anne S. York
Information Systems and Quantitative Analysis Faculty Proceedings & Presentations
Information systems adoption by small businesses often is viewed as a basic building block of economic development. Yet, the components that impact business success and thus economic development are mostly unexplored, especially within the context of minority and ethnic communities, both domestically and internationally. Given that IT adoption in small businesses is very often the domain of the business owner, an investigation of how the attributes of individual business owners and the context in which they are embedded is essential. This paper develops an integrative model of the role that IT adoption plays in business success and the economic development …
Adoption Of Information Technology By Micro-Enterprises: Insights From A Rural Community, Sajda Qureshi, Mehruz Kamal, Travis Good
Adoption Of Information Technology By Micro-Enterprises: Insights From A Rural Community, Sajda Qureshi, Mehruz Kamal, Travis Good
Information Systems and Quantitative Analysis Faculty Proceedings & Presentations
It appears that the growth of micro-enterprises is a key driver of economic development in underserved communities. However their growth is limited to only 20% of the economy even though they comprise 87% of businesses in Nebraska. Research has shown that IT adoption can increase their growth by 3.5% but the challenges to IT adoption by microenterprises are many. Current theoretical models on IT adoption focus on the intent to adopt IT in large organizations where employees’ attitudes and perceptions are measured in terms of their objectives within the structures of accountability. Microenterprises are unique in that the intention to …
Synergistic Ideation Through Pairing Participants In Facilitated Group Support Systems Sessions, John D. Murphy, Deepak Khazanchi
Synergistic Ideation Through Pairing Participants In Facilitated Group Support Systems Sessions, John D. Murphy, Deepak Khazanchi
Information Systems and Quantitative Analysis Faculty Publications
Group Support Systems (GSS) have been used and studied in the support of facilitated ideation sessions for years. The norm for these sessions has been for participants to work individually at GSS workstations. A review of applicable literature suggests that pairing participants at GSS workstations could result in higher quality ideas and participant satisfaction. This paper reports the results of a lab experiment that tested for differences between paired and unpaired facilitated GSS sessions. These results suggest that pairing participants can yield higher quality ideas from facilitated ideation without negative consequences.
