Impact of it on individual behaviour
Information technology (IT) encompasses all forms of technology used to create, store, exchange, and use information. IT includes telecommunications, office systems, industrial automation, robotics, and consumer products. The relationship between IT and behavioral informatics deals with the human aspects of technology through multidisciplinary research including psychology, cognitive science, computer science, management, education, and training. IT is eliminating barriers of time, space, and distance through high-speed data communication and globalization, changing behaviors toward new technologies. While telecommuting provides benefits like reduced travel costs and improved work-life balance, negative impacts of IT include potential job stress, information anxiety, and a shortened career ladder with greater electronic supervision and job mobility.
A Survey of Building Robust Business Models in Pervasive Computing
Pervasive computing is one of the most challenging and difficult computing domains nowadays. It includes many architectural challenges like context awareness, adaptability, mobility, availability, and scalability. There are currently few approaches which provide methodologies to build suitable architectural models that are more suited to the nature of the pervasive domain. This area still needs a lot of enhancements in order to let the software business analyst (BA) cognitively handle pervasive applications by using suitable tasks and tools. Accordingly, any proposed research topic that would attempt to define a development methodology can greatly help BAs in modeling pervasive applications with high efficiency. In this survey paper we address some of the most significant and current software engineering practices that are proving to be most effective in building pervasive systems.

Global workforces are expanding rapidly and will hit 3.85 billion workers by 2025, half of whom will be tech-savvy millennials prioritizing work-life balance. To attract and retain top talent, enterprises must offer flexible work styles like remote work as employee turnover costs US businesses $11 billion annually. The definition of work is radically changing with mobility and social networking altering how, when and where people work. By 2020, 1.55 billion workers will be mobile rather than confined to a desk, requiring IT infrastructure changes to support varied devices, users, environments and applications. However, 79% of enterprises have no incident response plan, wasting resources investigating breaches, while workspaces remain unprepared for growing cyber threats

Impact of computers on our work.By.Dr.Mahboob ali khan Phd
People are generally fearful and distrustful of change. Change that involve new and complex technologies are especially stressful, particularly to older and less educated workers. They are fearful of losing their jobs, of losing control to machines, and of becoming useless. Systems analysts, software engineers, and system designers need to be aware of these fears and need to directly address these fears in an honest and forthright manner, both to enhance the probability that the new system will contain the accumulated knowledge of these workers and will be used and to acknowledge their individual worth.
Intergen Think! Event: Modern Applications for a Modern Enterprise
This session is an introduction to the emerging concepts and patterns that are known as “modern applications” and will be of interest to business innovators and solution developers alike.
The modern application is not about any one technology; it is an application that delivers experiences that users have come to expect. It is more than just a consumable piece of software – it’s also the development and delivery of that software.
We review several elements that power this new wave/next generation of applications and identify how the modern enterprise can consider these as part of enabling business value through technology.

Networked computers and communications systems are now part of the daily life of a significant percentage of the public all over the world because we are in a new era of computerization. Arguably, the most crucial importance to the development of the public policy choice that fueled this increase in networked computing was the introduction of public access to the Internet. The Internet, as described by Kurose & Ross (2013) is a worldwide computer network which provides a host of communication and information capabilities, that is made up of interconnected networks using standardized communication protocols. The Clinton–Gore White House showed a high level of symbolic support for “information superhighways” which contributed to the popularization of the interest in the public access to the Internet, as well as the enthusiasm of Technology Journalists, business, and entertainment. The possibilities of the widespread public access to the Internet enabled significant developments in many applications, including electronic commerce (eCommerce), Electronic Publishing, distance learning like the Walden DIT program, virtual communities, and digital libraries. According to Noam (1995), the evolution of these new applications raised a lot of important questions and arguments about the social changes that could arise as a result of the widespread public use of the internet. Most of the arguments centered around whether electronic commerce, as portrayed by eBay and Amazon.com could gradually drive away the markets of physical stores. Noam (1995), further noted that many people also wondered whether widespread distance learning such as the programs in online Universities could provide new opportunities for an inexpensive and convenient home education that could become attractive enough to reduce the enthusiasm for place-based colleges and universities rapidly. Harnad (1991) and Fuller (1995) were concerned about the rapid development of electronic journals serving as a low-cost alternative to the increasingly expensive print journals. Furthermore, they pondered whether digital libraries would reduce the need for “brick and mortar” libraries and also the threat to community life if most social activities were to move from face-to-face, place-based settings to online forums.
For the last 25 years, the relationships between social change and information and communication technologies (ICTs) has been substantially analyzed and empirically researched with the help of all these discussions and questions. According to Kling (2000), Social Informatics is the research body that examines ...

ISBE Doctoral Day for slideshare.pptx
This document outlines three sub-projects that analyze gendered constructions of entrepreneurship across online spaces: 1) Mapping visual representations of entrepreneurial masculinities and femininities, 2) Unpacking representations of entrepreneurial advice online, and 3) Analyzing the journey of a popular female entrepreneurial image. The researchers trace images and texts across platforms to understand how entrepreneurship is gendered. They discuss challenges of reflexively analyzing online images and platforms, tracing as an ongoing process, and using a montage approach. The second sub-project analyzes entrepreneurial advice through a framework of critical public pedagogy and examines how advice shapes subjects according to capitalist norms in a gendered way. Preliminary findings suggest advice constructs entrepreneurship

Qualitative research with online text and images
This document discusses qualitative research methods for analyzing online text and images. It describes the author's journey across different methodological approaches in human resource management, identity and diversity, and entrepreneurship research. These have included digital methods like tracking online data and trawling websites, as well as visual analysis techniques. Challenges of online research are noted around data volume, authenticity, and publishing multimodal findings. Future developments may involve more socially distanced research and combining digital and traditional methods as data becomes more complex, ephemeral and multimodal.
New directions for qualitative research
This document discusses the need for new directions in qualitative research methods. It argues that traditional qualitative research has become formulaic and fails to address important issues like reification of data and lack of consideration of concepts like temporality and materiality. The document then explores potential new directions, including personal reflection on one's research, developing method guides, and using creative and digital methods. It provides an example research project that maps across digital spaces and combines visual and semiotic analysis. Finally, it stresses that doctoral researchers should challenge assumptions, experiment with different knowledge generation techniques, and focus on methodology.
Web Based Images
This document provides an overview of a research project analyzing web-based images of entrepreneurs. It discusses using a Combined Visual Analysis methodology to examine images from Google Image searches and stock image libraries. The analysis involves categorizing images, analyzing composition, semiotics, gaze and gesture. Preliminary conclusions found themes of masculinity reinforced in male images but adopted in female images, with stock images predominating. Challenges discussed include volume of data, platformization, and ethics. Key advice is to explore visual representations, notice stock image use, discuss ethics, and contribute seriously while having fun.
Young workers and generational stereotypes
This document discusses generational stereotypes about young and older workers. It notes that while "young" and "old" are constructed categories in the labor market used to exclude workers, both groups face similar means and measures of exclusion based on chronological age. The document also examines how generations are defined but debates the evidence for lasting differences between birth cohorts. It concludes by calling for future research to better understand stereotypes, intersectional experiences, age as a competition, and the impact of COVID-19 across age groups.
What happens when research goes online
This document provides an introduction to a keynote presentation about reimagining research in a digital age. It discusses how conducting research essentially involves extracting and abstracting meaning from data. When research moves online, issues like authenticity, hybridity, multimodality, temporality and sociomateriality must be critically engaged with. There are also practical challenges to consider regarding research ethics, skills, resources, and managing mixed methods. The document provides resources for conducting qualitative research on various digital platforms and methods.
Qualitative research on the internet: highlights

K pritchard for oxford brookes 23 apr15
This document provides an overview of a research seminar on age and work. It discusses several topics:
1) Generations are socially constructed cohorts that shape values and attitudes. Debates often conflate generations with age groups and present differences as natural rather than constructed.
2) Discussions of the "missing million" unemployed youth and the "missing million" unemployed older workers position different age groups in competition over limited jobs and resources.
3) Visual analyses of online news and stock photos reveal gendered discourses of ageing, with older men typically depicted in command roles and younger women as the focus of attention.
The seminar explores how notions of age and age identities are constructed online
Bam event research on line
Part of the British Academy of Management Research Methods SIG 'Sharing our Struggles' series.
The increased use of the Internet, social media and other virtual sites for discussing and accomplishing work and organization raises both new possibilities and new challenges for conducting organizational research. We have the opportunity to view work in a different way, to access the previously inaccessible and to gain insight into virtual organization through the utilisation of on-line research methods but we still know very little about how we might effectively and usefully do this. In this workshop speakers will discuss their own specific experiences of on-line research, revealing both their successes and the issues that arise.

Olkc presentation pritchard&symon for slide share
- 1. “Sent from my Blackberry ® Wireless Device”Co-constructing knowing via ‘smart’ mobile devices. Katrina Pritchard and Gillian Symon Dept of Organizational Psychology, Birkbeck, University of London OLKC 2011, 12-14 April Research funded by British Academy SG-54143
- 2. Blackberry functions Mobile Email Camera Mobile Phone (text, voice) IM (via Blackberry PIN service) Calendar Internet access GPS Mapping
- 3. Blackberry functions Mobile Email Camera Mobile Phone (text, voice) IM (via Blackberry PIN service) Calendar Internet access GPS Mapping RIM’s marketing messages: ‘act on inspiration’ ‘do more, faster’ ‘carry your friends in your pocket’‘master your every day’ (source: http://uk.blackberry.com/devices).
- 4. Existing research Computer mediated communication media richness theory Mobile communication overload, interruption, absence-presence Blackberries & work-life balance Knowledge management capability and functionality of smartphones especially in distributed work environments
- 6. Research Context Incident resolution involves office, mobile and shift work Work is distributed but also embedded in specific locations Resolving incidents involves both manual (engineering) and managerial work processes Time is a key performance measure (the clock starts ticking after 3 minutes)
- 7. Themes Responding to incidents Knowing about incidents Getting advice quickly Extended opportunities for knowledge sharing
- 8. Responding to incidents Use of BB’s camera to establish ‘facts’, emailed direct from BB Photos replacing a MOE’s assessment of the incident BUT also saves time, MOE’s can get on with ‘real’ engineering work MOE’s also use photos to challenge management:
- 9. Knowing about incidents 24/7 organization: knowledge about incidents constantly circulating Upward escalation has been replaced by management investigation BBs used to demonstrate knowledge
- 10. Getting advice quickly Audit trail differences between email, text and phone use from BB Issues related to media capability (especially attachments) and skim reading Responsiveness as effectiveness
- 11. Extending opportunities “it allows people who don’t prepare and don’t plan to impact on other people” Mixed reactions to use in meetings: distraction vs. tool to enable instant access to information to support discussions Ability to make use of travel time increases ‘presence’ in the office:
- 12. Discussion Challenges to conceptions of engineering knowledge Importance of being in the know and the risks of not knowing Visibility of both seeking and giving advice Audit trails and ‘reply alls’ Presence and distraction Both in relation to ‘real’ engineering work and ‘real’ management
- 13. Discussion Returning to RIM’s marketing messages: ‘act on inspiration’ ‘do more, faster’: but also exacerbates tensions between responsiveness and thoughtfulness ‘carry your friends in your pocket’‘master your every day’: raises issues with respect to control and power relations
