Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Managers face enormous challenges today to plan the decision rights and responsibilities in order to reach desired IT behaviors which are aligned with business objectives of organizations. This is known as IT governance and is ranked as one of the firms' top concerns. Not surprisingly, it is crucial for organizations to find the affecting factors on IT governance and solve the problems associated with it. Culture in national, organizational or group level is an affecting factor in organizations that can play a role in IT governance and this role is rarely explored in academic research. This paper provides a literature review investigating the influence of culture on IT governance. The research purpose is to identify how culture and IT governance in the companies can be linked together and promote this area for future research. The literature review is done systematically and the findings are classified by using an IT governance framework with three main components of structures, processes and relational mechanisms. The results indicate there is an influence from national and organizational culture on IT governance. However, the number of studies is very few and there is still a lack of knowledge on how culture can influence IT governance. This research calls upon a further research on culture impact on achieving an effective IT governance implementation in organizations.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Simulation plays an important role on studing the Internet of Things (IoT) traffic, which has an increasing impact on network infrastructures.The existing simulation tools and mechanisms on IoT mainly focus on simulating large-scale deployment of IoT and heterogeneous IoT applications. This paper concentrates on how to simulate the lengthy, burthty and multi-level time-scale IoT applications quickly. A time-scale data generation (TSDG) method is proposed to reduce the used simulation time of different IoT scenarios while keeping the real world characteristics of the IoT applications. Implementations of TSDG in ns-3 and simulation experiments of smart home and smart shopping centre are described in the paper. The evaluations results show that the proposed TSDG method can effectively reduce the time used to simulation IoT applications in ns-3 while reflect the IoT application traffic in the real world.

Prioritising Business Processes : Design and evaluation of the Prioritisation and Categorisation Method (PCM)
- 2018
-
Bok (refereegranskat)abstract
- This book addresses business process prioritisation – a problem in Business Process Management research that is often ill-structured and complex. The book introduces and describes the Prioritisation and Categorisation Method (PCM), a novel approach well aligned with today’s business needs and climate. It embraces an explorative approach to facilitating process innovation and designing new processes in dynamic environments.Three classic theories are employed as the basis for PCM and summarised here – Ackhoff’s interactive planning, Winograd and Flores’ network of commitments, and Simon’s bounded rationality. In addition, the book features a tutorial on a web-based tool that facilitates the application of PCM, together with two industry case studies that illustrate the method in practice and demonstrate its value.
