Fwd: [AISWorld] EJIS Special Issue - 1 Sept 2018 - Orchestration in Contemporary Software Development Ecosystems

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] EJIS Special Issue - 1 Sept 2018 - Orchestration in Contemporary Software Development Ecosystems Date: Fri, 10 Aug 2018 04:04:49 +0000 From: Sabine Matook <s.matook(a)business.uq.edu.au> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> This is a reminder for the Special Issue at the European Journal of Information Systems on Orchestration in Contemporary Software Development Ecosystems Submission deadline: 1. Sept 2018 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ This special issue call for papers welcomes contributions that have the potential to provide insight on the orchestration of software development in contemporary digital ecosystems. The past decade has seen tremendous transformation in these ecosystems giving rise to new approaches for how software is developed, as well as the management and execution of the software development process. Three domains in which these changes have been especially notable are (1) in the human resources involved in software development; (2) in the software agents that impact software applications under development; and (3) development of new practices in relation to these transformations. In the human resource domain, the emergence of software-focused crowdsourcing platforms (e.g., TopCoder) has expanded the scope and composition of who contributes to software development (Ågerfalk et al. 2015, Saremi et al. 2017). At the same time, the intensified collaborations between commercial organizations and open source communities in the development of software demands new thinking on how to balance an expectation of openness with the pursuit of commercial interests such as monetization (e.g., Germonprez et al. 2017). In the software agent domain, we have seen an increase in actors at the content, device and network layers because of the emergence of unique digital ecosystems. The intertwining of these layers of the digital ecosystem has resulted in the immense expansion of the number of stakeholders involved in the development of software and the dependencies between them (Yoo et al. 2010). For example, the explosion of APIs (17,000 at last count: http://bit.ly/2xz5GtW) across a variety of software sectors is not only evidence for an increase of involved actors, but also illustrates changes in the development of software functions that interface with services generated by these APIs (Tavares et al. 2017). In addition, the expansion of the Internet of Things has introduced products that serve as platforms that connect developers with consumers enabling the continuous delivery of services and generation of insights from products in use (Porter and Heppelmann 2014). Moreover, novel practices like DevOps and BizDev enable continuous development (Fitzgerald and Stol, 2017), and development methods are increasingly becoming hybrid (Bick et al., 2017). We are interested in ground-breaking, thought-provoking submissions that can inform our appreciation of the orchestration of software development in these different emerging digital ecosystems. These expansive changes to the software landscape necessitate a revisiting of our approaches to software development; including identification of new development practices for the challenges and opportunities that have emerged amid this transformation, understanding how existing practices are being adapted to meet these changes, exploring how development can be scaled-up to meet the challenges and opportunities created by these changes and elaborating the strategic imperatives that come to the fore when developing in such ecosystems. Conceptual and empirical submissions are welcome and may address any the following topic areas, but are not be limited to these: * Strategic considerations when leveraging crowdsourcing platforms for software development * Combinations of new approaches to software development and IT operation * Software design for leveraging API-based services * Balancing openness and commercial interest in collaboration with open source communities * Complexity in software development and organizations * Coordinating software development between employees and the crowd * Governance of software engagements with various actors * Customer collaboration across multiple boundaries * Coordinating software development and product development cycles * Scaling and tailoring agile practices in software development * Adaptation of software development methods for engaging with a multitude of actors, including crowds and in large-scale projects * Continuous software development, DevOps and BizDev practices * Empirical examples of hybrid development methods and tailoring of development methods in new contexts.

Specifically, knowledge acquisition and knowledge application are analyzed and empirically tested in relation to product and process innovation as well as business performance. The results support the direct impact of product and process innovation on business performance. In addition, the results show the indirect effect of knowledge acquisition and knowledge application on firm business performance through product and process innovation. Although KM represents a complex concept of knowledge management in a firm and can contain more processes, this article confirms that KM processes individually contribute to the innovation and indirectly on business performance. Besides, it confirms mediating effect of innovation between both knowledge acquisition and knowledge application and organizational business performance. In addition, most of the similar studies have been focused on the developed Western countries.

As a consequence, the resulting new ontology extends the original knowledge of the base ontology, but the unaligned concepts of the other ontology are not considered in the new extended ontology. On the other hand, there are experts-aided semi-automatic approaches to accomplish the task of including the knowledge that is left out from the resulting merged ontology and debugging the possible concept redundancy. With the aim of facing the posed necessity of including all the knowledge of the ontologies to be merged without redundancy, this article proposes an automatic approach for merging ontologies, which is based on semantic similarity measures and exhaustive searching along of the closest concepts. The authors' approach was compared to other merging algorithms, and good results are obtained in terms of completeness, relationships and properties, without creating redundancy.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of knowledge sharing intention (KSI) and affective trust (AT) on knowledge sharing (KS) behaviour of employees. Additionally, the mediating influence of affective commitment (AC) of the employees in this relationship is also studied. This study uses data from a sample of 246 managers in Indian private sector firms and employs Structural Equation Modelling approach to test the proposed hypotheses. The findings of this study show that contrary to the results of prior research, BI does not affect KS behaviour directly. Rather, it acts indirectly through AC, which is necessary for increasing employees' loyalty and willingness to share their knowledge. Moreover, the results indicated that AT has an indirect influence on employees' KS behaviour via KSI. Implications and limitations and future scope of the study have also been discussed.

It adopts a qualitative case study approach, focusing on three companies drawn from an initial review of fourteen technology transfer projects. This provides the foundation for the development of a model of 12 key factors that underpinned successful outcomes in these projects. The fourteen projects are reviewed in terms of their impact on either process change, service improvement or product development, drawing upon the post-project assessments of the funding body and the developed model. Findings suggest that using new technology to innovate internal processes and services is likely to prove more successful than projects focusing on new product development. The model provides an analytical framework that will be of interest and value to academics and business practitioners looking to develop university-industry partnerships involving technology change and innovation.

The process and results have been recorded in this article. A two-stage model has been developed and tested by using data obtained from 130 respondents. The first stage demonstrates that there are at least six factors affecting the knowledge transfer from foreign consultants to local partners. The second stage shows that acquired knowledge helps to improve the performance of the local partners. In addition to well-known determinants such as the transferor's willingness, capacity to transfer, the learner's intent and capability to learn, the results of the study provide the evidence to confirm the important roles of knowledge-related factors and environment-related factors.
