[Article Title: Equitable Healthcare Provision: Uncovering the Impact of the Mobility Effect on Human Development/ Sajda Qureshi and Jason (Jie) Xiong, p. 2-20]

Abstract: Even though the effects of mobile phone and internet usage on the health and wellbeing of a population are becoming apparent, few studies have uncovered the nature of this relationship to the equitable provision of healthcare. The contribution is in discovering the relationships between mobility effects and human development where inequities in income play an important role, the relationships to socio-economic development and in showing how the mobility effect can assist in addressing health inequities.

[Article Title: Defining Blockchain Governance: A Framework for Analysis and Comparison/ Rowan van Pelt,Slinger Jansen,Djuri Baars and Sietse Overbeek, p. 21-41]

Abstract: In this article, we introduce a blockchain governance framework that defines the governance of a blockchain as a combination of six dimensions and three layers. An evaluation through eight expert interviews confirms the perceived usefulness and operational feasibility of the presented framework. Furthermore, the framework, is demonstrated by an application in two case studies. The introduced blockchain governance framework establishes a shared understanding and discussion surrounding the topic of blockchain governance.

[Article Title: Achieving Social IT Alignment through the Orchestration of IT Assets: An Interpretive Case Study/ Claudia Pelletier,Anne-Marie Croteau,Louis Raymond and Dragos Vieru, p. 42-61]

Abstract: Adopting a qualitative approach, this exploratory case study analyzes the path to social IT alignment (SITA) of a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) that operates in the industrial services sector and is engaged in an organizational IT-enabled transformation. Based on three mechanisms, namely allocating, structuring, and coordinating IT resources, the findings of this study illuminate how a small, yet collaborative organization may achieve SITA through IT asset orchestration mechanisms that are better understood and managed.

[Article Title: Exploratory Analysis of Internet of Things (IoT) in Healthcare: A Topic Modelling & Co-citation Approaches/ Ramakrishna Dantu,Indika Dissanayake and Sridhar Nerur, p. 62-78]

Abstract: Internet of Things (IoT) have made a significant impact in healthcare domain. The purpose of this study is to unravel key themes latent in the academic literature on IoT applications in healthcare. Using topic modeling and author co-citation techniques, we identified five dominant clusters of research. Our results show that research in healthcare IoT has mainly focused on the technical aspects with little attention to social concerns. Our paper provides directions for future research.

[Article Title: ICT-related Behavior of Greek Banks in the Economic Crisis/ Euripidis Loukis and Spyros Arvanitis, p. 79-91]

Abstract: This article analyzes the ICT-related behavior of the five ‘system-relevant’ Greek banks in the first years 2010–2014 of the Greek economic crisis. We conclude that besides the standard immediate reaction to the crisis by reducing ICT-related expenses, the Greek banks in a later phase of the economic crisis proceeded to a substantial rationalization of their ICT processes/practices and improvement of their ICT capabilities, as well as the adaptation of their ICT plans to the crisis conditions.

[Article Title: Assessing Identity and Access Management Process Maturity: First Insights from the German Financial Sector/ Andre Schrimpf, Andreas Drechslerand Konstantinos Dagianis, p. 94-115]

Abstract: We develop an Identity and Access Management (IAM) process maturity model and provide a first assessment of four organizations in Germany’s financial industry. We find that the assessed organizations show merely average IAM maturity levels, and especially lack maturity and compliance in user registration and logging and tracking. Information technology (IT) managers, consultants, and auditors can use the model to (self)-audit, compare, or benchmark IAM process maturity, or identify weaknesses in organizations’ IAM processes.

[Article Title: The Contribution of ICT Adoption by Local Governments to Sustainability—Empirical Evidence from Poland/ Ewa Ziemba, p. 116-134]

Abstract: The model developed in this paper aims to explain how ICT (information and communication technologies) adoption by local governments contributes to sustainability. The model is empirically tested using survey data gathered from local government units in Poland and semistructured interviews with Poland-based experts. The results suggest that ICT quality, information culture, and ICT management of local government units have a significant positive impact on sustainability, whereas outlay on ICT does not have such an impact.

[Article Title: Blockchain Adoption from an Interorganizational Systems Perspective – A Mixed-Methods Approach/ Flynn Werner,Marcus Basalla,Johannes Schneider,Demelza Hays and Jan Vom Brocke, p. 135-150]

Abstract: This study investigates the potential influence of blockchain technology adoption on a company’s competitive performance from an interorganizational systems perspective. A research framework is derived based on expert interviews and tested with a quantitative survey. The results show, that by offering traceability and immutability of transactions, blockchain technology could positively impact a company’s competitive performance. The study further identified a positive influence of smart contract technology on partnering flexibility and competitive performance. https://doi.org/10.1080/10580530.2020.1767830

[Article Title: Thirty Six Years of Information Systems Management: A Bibliometric and Thematic Analysis/ Babak Abedin,Hamed Jafarzadeh and Celina M Olszak, p. 151-164]

Abstract: Following increased interests to examine key trends is IS research, this paper presents a bibliometric analysis of Information Systems Management highlighting key themes within the past 36 years, and a semantic analysis of articles’ keywords to uncover trends most influential on ISM. It considers various metrics including citation structure, and most-cited papers. The paper divides IS research into two groups of core and emerging topics, and concludes with directions for future studies in the discipline.

[Article Title: Exploring the Determinants of Intention to Use P2P Mobile Payment in Spain/ Francisco Liébana-Cabanillas,Sebastian Molinillo and Arnold Japutra, p. 165-180]

Abstract: Peer-to-peer (P2P) mobile payment is a mobile banking service with major growth potential. We contribute to the body of knowledge on technology adoption by proposing a conceptual model based on the theory of reasoned action, extended with additional mobile payment constructs identified in the literature review. The results show that usefulness, subjective norms, and personal innovativeness have a particularly strong, direct influence on intention to use.
