TL;DR: This paper re-conceptualizes 'information system success' as a formative, multidimensional index that would facilitate cumulative research on the impacts of IS, while at the same time providing a benchmark for organizations to track their IS performance.
Abstract: This paper re-conceptualizes 'information system success' as a formative, multidimensional index. A validated and widely accepted such index would facilitate cumulative research on the impacts of IS, while at the same time providing a benchmark for organizations to track their IS performance. The proposed IS-Impact measurement model represents the stream of net benefits from an Information System (IS), to date and anticipated, as perceived by all key-user-groups. Model measures are formulated to be robust, economical and simple, yielding results that are comparable across diverse systems and contexts, and from multiple user perspectives. The model includes 4 dimensions in two halves. The 'impact' half measures benefits to date, or Individual- and Organizational-Impact; the 'quality' half, uses System-Quality and Information-Quality as proxies for probable future impacts. Study findings evidence the necessity, additivity and completeness of these four dimensions.
The validation study involved three separate surveys, including exploratory and confirmatory phases preceded by an identification-survey. Content analysis of 485 qualitative 'impacts' cited by 137 respondents from across 27 Australian Government Agencies that implemented SAP Financials in the late 90's, identified salient dimensions and measures. The resultant a-priori model ('pool' of 37 measures) was operationalized in the subsequent specification-survey, yielding 310 responses across the same 27 agencies. The confirmation-survey, employing 27 validated measures from the specification-survey, was next conducted in a large university that had implemented ORACLE Financials. Confirmatory analysis of the 153 responses provides further strong evidence of model validity.

TL;DR: Though enterprise resource planning has gained some prominence in the information systems (IS) literature over the past few years and is a significant phenomenon in practice, through historical analysis, meta-analysis of representative IS literature, and a survey of academic experts, dissenting views are revealed.
Abstract: Though enterprise resource planning (ERP) has gained some prominence in the information systems (IS) literature over the past few years and is a significant phenomenon in practice, through (a) historical analysis, (b) meta-analysis of representative IS literature, and (c) a survey of academic experts, we reveal dissenting views on the phenomenon. Given this diversity of perspectives, it is unlikely that at this stage a broadly agreed definition of ERP can be achieved. We thus seek to increase awareness of the issues and stimulate further discussion, with the ultimate aim being to: (1) aid communication amongst researchers and between researchers and practitioners; (2) inform development of teaching materials on ERP and related concepts in university curricula and in commercial education and training; and (3) aid communication amongst clients, consultants and vendors. Increased transparency of the ERP-concept within IS may also benefit other aligned fields of knowledge.

TL;DR: In this paper, the main phases of generic maturity model development are outlined with the help of examples from two advanced maturity models in the domains of Business Process Management and Knowledge Management, respectively.
Abstract: Practitioners and academics have developed numerous maturity models for many domains in order to measure
competency. These initiatives have often been influenced by the Capability Maturity Model. However, an
accumulative effort has not been made to generalize the phases of developing a maturity model in any domain.
This paper proposes such a methodology and outlines the main phases of generic model development. The
proposed methodology is illustrated with the help of examples from two advanced maturity models in the
domains of Business Process Management and Knowledge Management.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a comprehensive summary of concentrating solar power (CSP) plants both in operation and under construction, covering the available technologies for the receiver, thermal storage, power block and heat transfer fluid.
Abstract: A concentrating solar power (CSP) system converts sunlight into a heat source which can be used to drive a conventional power plant. Thermal energy storage (TES) improves the dispatchability of a CSP plant. Heat can be stored in either sensible, latent or thermochemical storage. Commercial deployment of CSP systems have been achieved in recent years with the two-tank sensible storage system using molten salt as the storage medium. Considerable research effort has been conducted to improve the efficiency of the CSP system and make the cost of electricity comparable to that of the conventional fossil-fuel power plant. This paper provides a comprehensive summary of CSP plants both in operation and under construction. It covers the available technologies for the receiver, thermal storage, power block and heat transfer fluid. This paper also reviews developments in high temperature TES over the past decade with a focus on sensible and latent heat storage. High temperature corrosion and economic aspects of these systems are also discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, a direct Z-scheme g-C3N4/SnS2 heterojunction was constructed by depositing SnS2 quantum dots onto the g-c3n4/snS2 surface in situ via a simple one-step hydrothermal method.
