This book records one of the continuous attempts of the IFIP Working Group 8. 2, studying the interaction of information systems and the organization, to explore and understand the shifting boundaries and dependencies between organizational activities and their computer support. The book marks the result of the IFIP WG 8. 2 conference on "Designing Ubiquitous Information Environments: Socio-Technical Issues and Challenges. " Since its inception in the late 1970s, IFIP WG 8. 2 has sought to understand how computer-based information systems interact and must be designed as an integrated part of the organizational design. At that time, information systems handled repetitive and remote back-office functions and the main concern was work task design for repetitive input tasks and the potential impact of improved information support on organizational decision-making and structure. The focus of the information system design shifted in the 1980s when computers became part of the furniture and moved into the office. Reflecting this significant change, IFIP WG 8. 2 in 1989 organized a conference dedicated to the design and impact of desktop technology in order to examine how organizational processes and the locus of action changed when the computer was moved into the office. Sixteen years later, we are experiencing another significant change. Computers are now becoming part of our body and sensory system and will move out of the traditional office locations and into the wilderness. Again, IFIP WG 8.

What do we really know about mobile phone culture? This provocative and comprehensive collection explores the cultural and media dimensions of mobile phones around the world.

This book also provides a guide to convergent mobile phone culture, with fresh, innovative accounts of text messaging, Blackberry, camera phones, moblogging and mobile adventures in television. Mobile Phone Culture opens up important new perspectives on how we understand this intimate yet public cultural technology.

" "Computerization movement" (CM) refers to a special kind of social and technological movement that promotes the adoption of computing within organizations and society. ... Through theoretical analyses, systematic empirical studies, field-based studies, and case studies of specific technologies, the book shows CMs to be driven by Utopian visions of technology that become part of the "ether" within society. The empirical studies presented here show the need for designers, users, and the media to be aware that CM rhetoric can propose grand visions that never become part of a reality and reinforce the need for critical and scholarly review of promising new technologies."--Back cover.

This is the most comprehensive book discussing the impact of renewable energy transition by engaging local narratives, and combining this with the domestication of technology theory. Addressing a specific concern, the discussion considers the development of household biogas from an interdisciplinary sociological perspective and addresses the success factors for the implementation of biogas policy on the household level in Indonesia. Drawing upon extensive ethnographic fieldwork in a rural Indonesia, this book explores the interactive process of social and technological innovation from a user perspective. Their social interactions with wider stakeholders such as biogas technology trainers, laborers, construction partner organizations, and fellow users are examined. The author sheds light on emerging evidence around biogas sustainability by engaging a unique interdisciplinary framework that combines aspects of both sociology and engineering. Offering a unique insight, this book is relevant for social scientists, postgraduate students, social workers, environmental activists, communication experts, and engineers working across aspects of renewable energy development. They will gain new interdisciplinary insights and applicable approaches to building household biogas by actively engaging the users.
