This book captures a range of important developments that have
occurred in Information Systems over the last forty years, with a
particular focus on India and the developing world. Over this time,
Information and Communications Technology (ICT) and Information
Systems (IS) have come to play a critical role in supporting,
complementing and automating managerial decisions, shaping and
transforming industries, and contributing to deep societal and
economic change. This volume examines a range of topics for those
interested in the adoption and use of these technologies across
varied situations. It combines empirical studies on the application
and impact of IS with commentaries, debates and insights on the
transformative role that IT and the IT industry have played, and
continue to play, within India as well as globally. The book draws
attention to issues and challenges that organizations grapple with
in tech-enabled environments, and provides insights on the role of
automation and computational techniques. It explores the global
impact of the technology revolution on economic growth and
development, electronic globalization, and the wider opportunities
and challenges of a hi-tech world. The chapters cover various
themes such as e-government in India, internet-based distribution
systems, internet banking, and use of collaborative IT tools and
functions to support virtual teams in the software industry and the
business process outsourcing industry. Other chapters focus on
methodological advances, such as systems thinking which finds
applications in organizational decision-making, and the use of
fuzzy logic. This volume will interest professionals and scholars
of information technology and information systems, computer
studies, IT systems, economics, and business and management
studies.
