Ontology is a powerful technique for knowledge management and reasoning tasks. Recently, most research of OE is related to developing robust, smart, knowledge-based systems in different domains. Nowadays, e-business, or electronic business, is the integrated execution of all business analytics processes of an enterprise by means of smart computing and informatics. The objective of this study is to develop a web-based ontology for e-business paradigms. In this work, five web-based ontologies were designed for the following: (a) e-business applications; (b) e-business participants; (c) e-business infrastructure; (d) e-business support areas, and (e) fields in e-business. The developed ontologies were implemented in ontology web-based language OWL2 using the Protege smart tool version 5.0.0 editing environment.

By applying Weber’s law, which explains the shifting perception of individuals on stimuli based on mental scaling mechanism, we hypothesize that the marginal effect of rating (i.e. when there is one product to value) and rating difference (i.e., when there are two products to compare) decrease as rating and rating difference increase. To validate this hypothesis, we conducted an experimental survey on 226 online shopping mall users. The results show the marginally decreasing effect of rating and rating difference on consumer purchase intention, thus supporting the different mental scaling systems in different situations. This study contributes to the literature by providing rationale for consideration of the scale and context of the rating when discussing the rating effect. To cite this document: Jung Lee and L. G.

Commercial activities conducted through social networking sites among users themselves has grown significantly. A rapid increase in the number of new vendors has forced the existing ones to improve their business for competitive advantage. Systematic and effective implementation and improvement has taken place by using a tool that provides business capability self-assessment such as the maturity model. Although there are a number of studies describing maturity of social media usage in organizations or businesses, there are few studies focusing on the C2C business model. This study presents a maturity model of C2C s-commerce for assessing stage of growth of C2C s-commerce. The methodology included both secondary research and case study research. The model includes five distinct maturity levels (Ad hoc, Active repeatable, Proactive functional, Pre-emptive managed, and Optimized). Their characteristics have been researched through four major dimensions (i.e., Business environment, People, Process, and Technology). The proposed maturity model helps online vendors implement their business activities by reducing business risks and also supports consumers by minimizing risks involved in purchasing.

The facts demonstrate that Microsoft used to own the most popular social media application for students to communicate with each other, but its major competitor, Facebook, gradually supplanted it to become the most popular social media platform in Taiwan. The decrease in the number of students of Microsoft’s social media platform reflected changes in discontinuous social media adoption. Students are involved in using social media, which means that they fall into flow (concentration) status. If students enjoy using a particular social media, they will fall into flow experience, which may influence student attitude toward and use of social media. This study examines flow experience and the discontinuous in student adoptions on social media based on a survey of 400 students and their experiences of changes to their favorite social media in Taiwan. The analytical results demonstrate that flow experience significantly influences perceived ease of use, together with attitude toward and intention to use social media. The managerial implications are also illustrated.

Although traditional and internet shopping behaviors are similar in some ways, there are some significant differences. To this end, this paper investigates the role of different types of pricing discounts in shaping consumer evaluations when shopping online. In particular, we examine the moderating effects of the list price value and online shopping experience on the consumer evaluation of “free shipping” and “dollar off” discounts. Past research suggests that the free shipping offer will be more attractive than the dollar-off offer when they are of the same economic value. This study contributes to our understanding of research by examining the moderating effects of changes in list price and the consumers’ online shopping experience. The results of the quasi-experimental design suggests that the free shipping offer works better than a dollar-off discount for lower-priced goods, but there is no difference between the two for higher-priced goods. Additionally, seasoned online shoppers are more receptive to both types of pricing discounts, no matter the list price, than are novice online shoppers.

However, the extent of its adoption in the Nigerian building industry is not clearly understood. This study investigated e-Procurement use in the Nigeria building industry with a view to improving understanding of the extent of its adoption in this country. The research involved a questionnaire survey of 213 respondents drawn from consulting and contracting firms, client organizations in the private sector and government institutions conducted in Nigeria in 2015. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Chi-square test and multiple regression analysis. The result shows that the main users of e-Procurement were quantity surveyors and construction/project managers in consulting firms; and that there was a significant relationship between professional roles and e-Procurement use in the Nigerian building industry. The most frequently used e-Procurement technologies for announcing/receiving invitation to tenders; exchanging project briefs and specifications; submitting/receiving tenders/bids and sourcing for materials and equipment were e-mails and websites. Age of organizations, top management perception of the benefits of e-Procurement and sector of procurement experience had the most significant influence on e-Procurement adoption in the study area. The study concludes that the private sector was taking the lead in e-Procurement use and that only established organizations whose top management understands the benefits of e-Procurement would most likely adopt it in the Nigerian building industry.

Since the acceptance of new technology can be somewhat challenging, the effect of perceived risk on the adoption of social commerce is examined from the perspective of Internet users. For this purpose, a conceptual model based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) has been created to take into account different types of risks, including financial, functional, social, time, psychological, and privacy risks. The results of the study, which used a structural equation modeling (SEM) approach and partial least squares (PLS), revealed that, among 277 active users of social media, the perceived risk has a significant impact on the perceived usefulness of social commerce. Moreover, among different constructs of risk, psychological, and social risks doesn’t have a noticeable effect on commerce adoption.

This study aimed to examine the effects of ambivalence toward PTs on internal conflicts and intention to use locationâ€“based mobile commerce (LBMC) and the extent to which these relationships were moderated by gender. Data were collected from a self-administered online survey of South Korean mobile users (N = 500). Structural equation results revealed that ambivalence toward PTs had a direct positive effect on intention to use LBMC and an indirect negative effect mediated by internal conflict. Gender was found to moderate two paths in the model; a high level of ambivalence toward PTs increased the internal conflicts among females but not males, whereas internal conflicts decreased the intention to use LBMC among males but not females. Theoretical and managerial implications for researchers and marketing practitioners are then discussed.

Various strategies based on deterrence, ethical arguments, psychosocial considerations, or technical measures have been effective, but only to a limited degree. The problem persists and it is clear that magic bullets do not exist. One approach is to present consumers with new value propositions based on business models centered on digital streaming and downloading. Attractive product and platform attributes, which are a function of software and hardware design, may influence consumer behavior away from digital piracy and towards legitimate purchases. The results of this study suggest that platform and product usability, quality, and enjoyment can influence unauthorized downloading intention and purchasing intention of legitimate music streaming systems.
