This book presents a collection of original research papers
focusing on the enabling aspects of Information and Communication
Technologies. In particular, it focuses on the two topics of
digital platforms and digital artefacts, and discusses their role
in enabling organizations to achieve specific goals, to exploit
innovative value propositions, or to leverage innovative
coordination mechanisms. Adopting a multidisciplinary perspective
on a variety of information systems topics, the book offers
interesting insights for IS managers, business managers, and
policymakers alike. It is based on a selection of the best research
papers - original double-blind peer-reviewed contributions -
presented at the annual conference of the Italian chapter of the
AIS, held in Genoa (Italy) in November 2014.
* Joey F. George I was honored to be asked to open the VI
Conference of the Italian Chapter of the Association for
Information Systems (ItAIS), held in Olbia, on the Costa Smeralda
of Sardinia, Italy, in October 2009. Over 90 research papers were
presented over two days, and over 120 people attended the
conference. Each day, five par- lel sessions featured papers on
diverse information systems topics. Session themes included
Information and Knowledge Management; Organizational Change and
Impact of ICT; IS Quality, Metrics and Impact; E-Justice and Ethics
of Information Systems; Information Systems Development and Design
Methodo- gies; E-Services in Public and Private Sectors; Innovation
Transfer of IT Research Projects; the Strategic Role of Information
Systems; Accounting Management and Information Systems; Human
Computer Interaction; and Emerging Issues in a Globalized and
Interconnected World. The majority of attendees were from Italy,
which would be expected for a meeting of the Italian Chapter of
AIS. However, as much as 30% of participants came from elsewhere,
from other parts of Europe to be sure, but also from as far away as
Nigeria, Mexico and Australia. That the conference was so decidedly
international provides support for the 2009 con- rence theme,
"Achieving Fusion in the Interconnected World. " Amid lively d-
cussion and intellectual exchanges, professional networks were
extended well beyond the Costa Smeralda and new connections and
friendships were made.

Technology supports the value generation process of an organisation
by enabling or executing activities and business processes.
Throughout the ages different visions of technology and on its role
in organisations have been proposed and discussed. Currently
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) embeds a great
potential of organisational changes and performance improvements.
ICT permeates every human activity and continuously change the way
people live and work. Due to the capability of creation,
modification, storage, and transmission of information, ICT is
deeply different from traditional process technologies. Anyhow the
contribution of ICT to the value generation process in organisation
is not always evident, and is sometimes taken for granted. The aim
of this book is to discuss the problem of the identification of the
contribution of ICT to the organisational value generation process.
In particular the book describes a method to identify the main ICT
resources that support the value generation process of the
organisation. The book also describes the application of the method
to test cases based on real life scenarios.
