To deliver high-quality IT services, plan-driven IT Service Management (ITSM) frameworks and standards have been used in business organizations in the last two decades. Nowadays, new and claimed agile ITSM frameworks and standards have emerged but there is a scarcity of studies on their extent of agility coverage. This research addresses this knowledge gap. First, we elaborated a plausible Integrative Agile ITSM Framework of Tenets and Practices from a selective review of the main related SwE and ITSM literature. Second, we populated the integrative framework with all available evidence about the agile tenets and practices reported in the official publications of the new five ITSM frameworks and standards. Third, we explored its utilization with a Panel of ITSM Experts for ranking how much the new five ITSM frameworks and standards fit the integrative framework. Exploratory results revealed high concordance among experts to qualify ITIL v4 and VeriSM as agile, and FitSM, and the two ISO/IEC standards as lightweight but not agile. This research contributes to the ITSM literature with an Integrative Agile ITSM Framework of Tenets and Practices, and the ITSM practice with an exploratory evaluation from ITSM experts on the adherence to it from the new five ITSM frameworks and standards. Given the critical dependence of any business activity on IT services, further theoretical and empirical research is worthy to be pursued.","PeriodicalId":54777,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Organizational Computing and Electronic Commerce","volume":"32 1","pages":"99 - 129"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49091292","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It explicates essential influence pathways that shape firms’ responses to essential external pressures for environmental sustainability, including the general public’s awareness of environmental protection, industry norms, and competitors’ green practices. This study emphasizes the mediating roles of a firm’s pursuit of a green image and its readiness for green practices, which represent symbolic and substantive legitimacy actions, respectively. Survey data from 152 leading manufacturers and 152 service firms in Taiwan are used to test the hypotheses empirically. The results show that the general public’s environmental awareness, industry norms, and competitors’ green practices influence firms’ GIT practices through their pursuit of a green image and green readiness. A comparative analysis further indicates that green readiness mediates the effects of external pressures for service firms but not for manufacturers, whereas the pursuit of a green image mediates the impacts of external pressures for manufacturing firms but not for service firms.","PeriodicalId":54777,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Organizational Computing and Electronic Commerce","volume":"32 1","pages":"130 - 152"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42190933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous research suggests that one reason explaining the success of DMSs is the ability to engage destination-based players in adopting these systems and in using its functionalities. Nevertheless, there is almost no research on factors explaining the importance that destination-based stakeholders assign to specific functionalities typically found in DMSs, neither on the factors that influence that importance. This research is especially important to design more useful DMSs and promote the use of these platforms. The present paper examines the factors influencing the relevance that stakeholders assign to several DMSs’ functionalities. The empirical study was performed in a Portuguese region – the NUTS II Center of Portugal. Results indicate that the importance given by stakeholders to DMSs’ functionalities is influenced by factors such as their perceptions on the destination’s readiness to adopt these systems, the perceived usefulness of DMSs and, in some cases, by the resources and strategic vision of their own organization, type of respondent, the stakeholders’ knowledge on DMOs’ platforms and affiliation to DMOs. However, the impact of the previously mentioned factors differs according to the kind of functionalities considered.","PeriodicalId":54777,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Organizational Computing and Electronic Commerce","volume":"32 1","pages":"21 - 44"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47902542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the hierarchy of effective and relevant behavioral theories, we propose a research model with four components: consumer beliefs, advergame attitude, brand attitude, and purchase intention. The elaboration likelihood model (ELM) is used as a complementary lens to define three game beliefs: advergame design, psychological state, and advergame content. A comprehensive literature review is further classified to define their comprised elements. Brand familiarity is shown as a moderator for the link of advergame and brand attitude due to a connection to behavioral theories. Empirical study consists of an online survey of 477 consumers who had recent experience of advergame playing. Most variables for game beliefs, including game-brand fit, perceived interactivity, involvement, entertainment, and receptiveness, show significant, positive effects on advergame attitude. Besides, advergame attitude reports an important, direct link with purchase intention.

In line with the threat appraisal component of PMT, our cyber-risk assessment (CRA) module uses a Seasonal time series forecasting method, takes ITMS average speed as an input, and outputs the probability of anomalies in the average speed of vehicles. Subsequently, based on the concepts of risk theory, the cyber-risk quantification (CRQ) module calculates the expected loss for a smart city due to collision or congestion on the pathways. In line with the coping appraisal component of PMT, our cyber-risk mitigation (CRM) module proposes strategies for the smart-city administrator to reduce cyber-risk using technological means and pass the residual risk to third-party cyber-insurer.","PeriodicalId":54777,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Organizational Computing and Electronic Commerce","volume":"32 1","pages":"1 - 20"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48354777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the performance of OGD initiatives (POI) in some agencies has been impressive, for others it has been less so. To understand the underlying factors that influence OGD initiatives and drawing on the technology-organization-environment (TOE) framework, we propose a model that incorporates seven context-specific TOE variables. The model was tested with two complementary methods applied to responses in 198 surveys completed by Australian government agency employees. In the first stage, structural equation modeling detected that quality of data, management leadership, skilled operational professionals, political commitment, and external pressure significantly contribute to POI. However, the concept of the TOE framework fundamentally implies a joint effect, suggesting a configuration rather than independent effect of TOE variables. Therefore, in the second stage, we investigated the model using fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA), which is new to information systems research and appropriate for configuration analyses. The fsQCA results suggested complex configurational trade-off effects among the variables. Specifically, quality of data and metadata, management leadership, skilled operational professionals, and political commitment were found to drive POI. Inhibitors of POI included lack of skilled staff, lack of technology infrastructure, lack of political commitment, and external pressure. Our findings contribute to the information systems literature and managerial practice by providing strategic insight to improve OGD initiatives.","PeriodicalId":54777,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Organizational Computing and Electronic Commerce","volume":"31 1","pages":"300 - 319"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41968440","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there is still a lack of understanding of BYOD security risks and their impact on both information security and service delivery, particularly in the government sector, nor are there any strategies to reduce these risks. To examine this problem, interviews and BYOD risk assessments were conducted with eight IT security experts from selected public sector organizations to furnish in-depth insights into BYOD risks and its impact on organizations, and to recommend mitigation strategies to overcome them. Security risks that emanate from the security behavior of employees using their personal devices are identified and categorized into people, process, and technology risks. The risk assessment resulted in 16 critical risks for public sector organizations and strategies such as security training and awareness (SETA), policy, top management commitment, and technical countermeasures to overcome critical BYOD risks.","PeriodicalId":54777,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Organizational Computing and Electronic Commerce","volume":"31 1","pages":"320 - 342"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2021-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41391236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
