The field of information systems has been evolving since the first application of computers in organizations in the early 1950s. Focusing on information systems analysis and design up to and including the 1980s, the field has expanded enormously, with our assumptions about information and knowledge being challenged, along with both intended and unintended consequences of information technology. This second edition takes stock of the progress made in recent years and presents a forward-looking perspective that can help to shape future scholarly conversations both in the field of information systems but also in cognate fields where information technology is having profound effects. With the advances in digital technology, such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, cloud computing, blockchain, green tech and the like, we herald a digital era and can envision a shift and a need for new logics – “new ways of thinking” and new ways of engaging with digital technology now and in the near future. As compared to the four themes in the previous edition, this book introduces a fifth theme, “Digital Phenomena”, to specifically attend to contemporary issues and what is a pertinent agenda for future research. This prestige reference work offers students and researchers a critical reflection on major topics and current scholarship in this evolving field, with each chapter providing a balanced overview of current knowledge, identifying issues and discussing relevant debates. This book is required reading for any student or researcher concerned not just with the broad - and expanding - field of management information systems per se but all those in cognate disciplines interested in the impacts, management and use of modern information technologies in organizations and modern society, whether it be strategy, organizational behaviour, marketing, sociology or the like. This single-volume repository deals not just with the current state of knowledge, the current debates and the extant literature, but also with questions concerning emerging management concerns and implications of the fast-changing world of digital technologies.

This book is concerned with the importance of Human Computer Interaction (HCI), Usability, user participants, and Sustainability in the Information Communication Technology (ICT) industry throughout the world. ICTs have become a crucial instrument for communication, entertainment, commerce and research and this increased usage is presenting new environmental and sustainability issues as we try and meet the ever-growing needs of both businesses and individuals. Sustainability and sustainable design must become central to the design of new technologies to make a concerted effort to tackle the environmental concerns we face now and in the future. Development frameworks, tools and models are used and explored, and the New Participative Methodology for Sustainable Design (NPMSD) is introduced as a way of identifying key factors needed in developing more sustainable systems including new smart technology and portable devices. In this book, the sustainable step in the design stage is evaluated and assessed by 11 countries: namely, Australia, Brazil, China, Germany, India, Norway, Singapore, South Korea, Sweden, UK, and USA. The new results are generated confirming that sustainable design awareness should be considered by designers, and users to minimize and reduce the carbon emissions, raw materials usage, and global warming, since these problems should be tackled soon, otherwise, it will be too late to solve it. Further research is needed in the future to implement and assess the sustainable design step with large IT companies to ensure compliance with environmental standards and rules for sustainable systems. Sustainable Design is an invaluable resource for students and researchers, designers and business managers who are interested in the human-centered, environmental concerns of sustainable technologies.

This Open Access book presents an in-depth portrait of the use and impact of digital technologies by learners ages 5-18 years in their everyday lives. The portrait is framed by the ecological-systems theory and situated across four domains: home, leisure time, education, and civic participation. Various methodological approaches are used in innovative ways to analyze data collected in a large-scale EU Horizon 2020 project. The purpose of this edited collection is to shed light on both beneficial and harmful effects of digital technology from a perspective that children are active agents who are empowered to accentuate the positives of digital technology use and over common challenges that inhibit digital competence with support from education stakeholders. This is an open access book.
