Stokes","doi":"10.28945/3653","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.28945/3653","url":null,"abstract":"One night in 2014, Mike, the head manager of Mellow Mushroom Tampa, paused from his exhausting evening to stare at the paper schedule posted on the wall. The schedule was covered in a mess of writing from employees drawing arrows to swap shifts, or asking others to pick up shifts. He had always tried to accommodate people’s schedules, but the task was becoming stressful and exasperating. That night one of the employees scheduled to work had neglected to show up, and none of the other employees Mike called could cover the shift. This meant that Mike would spend the remainder of the evening filling in at the bar as well as covering a few tables. Meanwhile, he would still be dealing with customer questions and complaints. Mike wished this was a rare occasion, but at least once a month he would have no-shows, either due to a conflict with an employee’s schedule, or because they did not even know they had been scheduled to work. Mike knew there had to be a way to fix the scheduling issues.","PeriodicalId":202502,"journal":{"name":"J. Inf. Technol. Educ. Discuss.

The first of these would publish business discussion case studies and technical notes intended for educational purposes and would exist entirely online. The second would publish research of interest to business practice and would initially publish online and would also provide printed volumes.","PeriodicalId":202502,"journal":{"name":"J. Inf.

Gill, Chief Financial Officer/Vice President, Strategy for Innerscope Research Inc. (ISR), addressed the question “What should be our next step?” daily while sitting in his office, not far from Boston's North Station. During the three years he had been with the company, ISR had established itself as a leading competitor in the emerging efforts to apply biometrics to predict consumer behavior. Using algorithms and techniques developed by its founders—Dr. Carl Marci, Director of Social Neuroscience for the Psychotherapy Research Program at the Massachusetts General Hospital, and Brian Levine, whose project involving the use of multiplatform sensing technology at the MIT Media Lab was a major source of inspiration for ISR’s products—the company had demonstrated how biometric signals (e.g., pulse, respiration, galvanic skin response) could be combined to produce important insights into individual reactions to advertisements, web pages, new products, and print media. Its client list looked like a “who’s who” of major advertisers (see Exhibit 1 for some examples). The company had recently established a strategic relationship with Ipsos, one of the largest market research firms in the world (and the market leader in TV advertisement research). Leveraging that relationship, the ISR’s proprietary technologies could potentially be employed in the evaluation of tens of thousands of TV advertisements each year. It was hard to imagine how a small business, with fewer than 40 employees and less than 5 years old, could have experienced a more promising start.","PeriodicalId":202502,"journal":{"name":"J. Inf.

The system, which combined information technology, robotics, and a high powered laser, made it possible to burn identifying bar codes on to specially treated boxes. Using this technology, a pallet holding dozens of boxes of freshly picked fruits of vegetables could be marked to identify both the crop and when/where it was picked in well under a minute. In the event that a problem—such as an E. coli outbreak—was subsequently detected, it would then become possible to localize the original source of the contamination at a degree of specificity that had never before been possible. Such detailed labeling of point of origin would soon become virtually mandatory as a consequence of the Produce Traceability Initiative (PTI) that was being championed by the Produce Marketing Association and other industry groups.","PeriodicalId":202502,"journal":{"name":"J.

While some still survived in this fierce competition, today, Mox Deals Vietnam, a couponing business website established in late 2012, had to find a way to be unique and different. On top of the fact that Vietnamese consumers had a negative impression of couponing businesses because of circulation of fake products in the market, there was also the perception that discounted products were not high quality.","PeriodicalId":202502,"journal":{"name":"J.
