Abstract:
This paper proposes a framework for evaluating information technology investments, integrating value chain analysis with activity-based costing and fuzzy logic. The proposed method should be particularly useful for businesses in emerging economies, where an uncertain economic environment is often combined with a lack of dependable, historical accounting data. The framework is illustrated by means of a hypothetical manufacturing company and a triangular fuzzy set membership function.

Abstract:
Investments in information technology (IT) do not always result in the expected payoffs. The factors which determine the success of IT investments are not well understood. Event studies are one approach to appraising IT investments. In this paper we review major event studies on IT investments, and based on the results of these studies, we propose a conceptual model describing the factors that impact successful IT investments.

Abstract:
In spite of the rapid growth many developing and emerging economies are experiencing, with much of this growth supported by information technology (IT), published research dealing with IT in developing economies is still very limited. The objective of this paper is to direct attention to this apparent gap and provide an overview of the issues related to information systems (IS) and IT specifically in developing and emerging economies. Business and social conditions specific to developing and emerging economies and their potential effects on IS/IT implementations are discussed. After a brief review of papers presented at previous AMCIS conferences, some research areas that seem particularly in need of more attention are identified.

Abstract:
Event studies, which look at stock market reactions to assess corporate business events, represent a relatively new research approach in the information systems field. In this paper we present a systematic review of thirty event studies related to information technology. After a brief discussion of each of the papers included in our review, we call attention to several limitations of the published studies and propose possible future research avenues.

Abstract:
Currently, one of the most widely discussed topics is offshoring. For many executives in the technology sector, the combination of low wages and faster work flow has made offshoring a necessity in protecting their competive edge. In this work, we provided our supplementary view why many offshoring projects may fail to deliver expected payoffs.

Abstract:
The topic of collaboration in cross-organizational and cross-border settings is an emerging subfield of information systems research. This paper presents a compressive literature review of 52 research papers, published from 2000 to 2007, in four leading journals. The focus of the analysis are topics of investigation, sources of data, and the underlying theories. The results indicate that most of the research still focuses on a limited number of technical issues related to inter-organizational systems adoption. The identified research gaps which represent promising research opportunities are discussed.

Abstract:
The break-up of the Soviet Union resulted in many formerly centrally planned and highly controlled economies to experience radical reforms that fully changed the business landscape. With the political and economic changes happening, many businesses and organizations in transition economies not only experienced major restructuring, but also acquired increased access to modern information technology (IT). Though much of the development in transition economies is supported by IT, there is not much published research dealing with the role of IT specifically in transition economies. The objective of this special issue is to stimulate research in this important area. In this introduction to the special issue, distinctive business and social conditions in transition economies, and the potential impacts of such conditions on IT use, as well as factors which may inhibit research of IT in transition economies are discussed.

Abstract:
Information Systems (IS) are increasingly being deployed across multiple departments, organizations, countries and world regions. Consequently, the quality of technical and non-technical integration of various IS modules is highly related to the tangible outcomes and, therefore, to the firm performance. In spite of the importance of the topic, not many research projects specifically focusing on cross-organizational and cross-border collaboration are reported. Thus, the context of this mini-track is the integration of people, systems, processes and infrastructure across organizations, borders, nations and world regions to enable productive teamwork toward accomplishing mutual goals.

Abstract:
A change in the stock value of a company is an important indicator of firm performance. Event studies, which look at abnormal stock price reactions to specific events or happenings that may impact a business's operations, represent a relatively new but fast growing research approach in the information systems field. Building on earlier literature reviews, in this paper we examine forty-six event studies related to information technology. The purpose of this updated review is to determine the current state of this research stream and to indentify existing research gaps. These gaps may represent promising opportunities for future event studies.

Abstract:
Information and communications technology (ICT) is a crucial driving force in economic globalization and the principal enabler in building a highly connected world. However, despite the ever-increasing importance of ICT in developing economies, the mainstream information system research remains focused on ICT in the limited number of highly developed countries. Comparatively little research is being reported that specifically addresses the issues that arise from using ICT in developing, emerging and transition economies. In this paper, we review twenty-five papers in this topic area that have been published in past proceedings of the Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS). Based on this review, trends and shortcomings in the existing research are discussed and new research opportunities are proposed.

Abstract:
Digital collaboration in cross-organizational settings is an emerging subfield of information systems research. This paper proposes a framework which describes digital collaboration as a continuous process influenced by a number of factors. The framework is derived from a systematic literature review of 80 research papers, published from 2000 to 2007, in six leading journals. The proposed framework may help to explain various aspects of digital cross-organizational collaboration.
