This book explores important issues in human capital in human
resource management as it relates to management information systems
(MIS). It highlights how management information systems are
implemented and the potential for employee resistance, offering
behavioral strategies to involve employees in adopting effective
MIS and in overcoming resistance during change. The authors also
look at the available research that focuses on the changing skills
requirements of employees in the context of both MIS perspectives
and HRM perspectives. They address how current trends have evolved
into a hyper-emerging market of competitive advantage and
fast-changing environments toward globalization. The authors also
address: workforce planning and management systems strategic human
resource management re-engineering work processes for improved
productivity work-force diversity the integration of MIS-HRIS and
employee involvement human resource globalization and MIS
implications the impact of digital technology on decentralized work
sites organizational continuous improvement programs
Big Data is now highly regarded and accepted as a useful tool to
help organizations manage their data and information effectively
and efficiently. This new volume, The Emerging Technology of Big
Data: Its Impact as a Tool for ICT Development, looks at the new
technology that has emerged to meet the growing need and demand and
studies the impact of Big Data in several areas of today's society,
including social media, business process re-engineering, science,
e-learning, higher education, business intelligence, and green
computing. In today's modern society, information system (IS)
through Big Data contributes to the success of organizations
because it provides a solid foundation for increasing both
efficiency and productivity. Many business organizations and
educational institutions realize that compliance with Big Data will
affect their prospects for success. Everyday, the amount of data
collected from digital tools grows tremendously. As the amount of
data increases, the use of IS becomes more and more essential. The
book looks at how large datasets and analytics have slowly crept
into the world of education and discusses methods of teaching and
learning and the collection of student-learning data. The final
chapter of the book considers the environmental impacts of ICT and
emphasizes green ICT awareness as a corporate strategy through
information systems. The global ICT industry accounts for
approximately 2 percent of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions,
and the manufacture, shipping, and disposal of ICT equipment also
contributes environmentally. This chapter addresses these issues.
The information provided here will be valuable information for
education professionals, businesses, faculty, scientists and
researchers, and others.
This volume shows how ICT (information and communications
technology) can play the role of a driver of business process
reengineering (BPR). ICT can aid in enabling improvement in BPR
activity cycles as it provides many components that enhance
performance that can lead to competitive advantages. IT can
interface with BPR to improve business processes in terms of
communication, inventory management, data management, management
information systems, customer relationship management,
computer-aided design, computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and
computer-aided engineering. This volume explores these issues in
depth.

This book presents on the latest research findings, and innovative
research methods and development techniques related to the emerging
areas of broadband and wireless computing from both theoretical and
practical perspectives. Information networking is evolving rapidly
with various kinds of networks with different characteristics
emerging and being integrated into heterogeneous networks. As a
result, a number of interconnection problems can occur at different
levels of the communicating entities and communication networks'
hardware and software design. These networks need to manage an
increasing usage demand, provide support for a significant number
of services, guarantee their QoS, and optimize the network
resources. The success of all-IP networking and wireless technology
has changed the way of life for people around the world, and the
advances in electronic integration and wireless communications will
pave the way for access to the wireless networks on the fly. This
in turn means that all electronic devices will be able to exchange
the information with each other in a ubiquitous way whenever
necessary.

This book presents the latest research findings, as well as
innovative theoretical and practical research results, methods and
development techniques related to P2P, grid, cloud and Internet
computing. It also reveals the synergies among such large scale
computing paradigms. P2P, Grid, Cloud and Internet computing
technologies have rapidly become established as breakthrough
paradigms for solving complex problems by enabling aggregation and
sharing of an increasing variety of distributed computational
resources on a large scale. Grid computing originated as a paradigm
for high-performance computing, offering an alternative to
expensive supercomputers through different forms of large-scale
distributed computing. P2P computing emerged as a new paradigm
following on from client-server and web-based computing and has
proved useful in the development of social networking, B2B
(Business to Business), B2C (Business to Consumer), B2G (Business
to Government), and B2E (Business to Employee). Cloud computing has
been described as a "computing paradigm where the boundaries of
computing are determined by economic rationale rather than
technical limits". Cloud computing has fast become the computing
paradigm with applicability and adoption in all domains and
providing utility computing at large scale. Lastly, Internet
computing is the basis of any large-scale distributed computing
paradigm; it has very quickly developed into a vast and flourishing
field with enormous impact on today's information societies and
serving as a universal platform comprising a large variety of
computing forms such as grid, P2P, cloud and mobile computing.
