Challenges in Information Systems Procurement in the Norwegian Public Sector
2011
Published version of a chapter in the book Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 6846, 404-417. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-22878-0_34 Public procurement of information systems (IS) and IS services provides several challenges to the stakeholders involved in the procurement processes. This paper reports initial results from a Delphi study, which involved 46 experienced procurement managers, chief information officers, and vendor representatives in the Norwegian public sector. The participants identified altogether 98 challenges related to IS procurement, divided further into 13 categories: requirements specification, change management, cooperation a…
Communication et Interculturation
2021
Interpersonal communication brings together individuals who try to make sense of one another in a given context. In this ongoing intersubjective process, they use culturally-structured knowledge and references to conjure up figures and styles rooted in identity-play. Whether in organisations, in the media, or in our open, cosmopolitan, liquid societies of late modernity, identities appear ever more present, ever more pressing. They are linked to the cultural traits that people use to “perform” and make sense of themselves and others in different social situations. The forms, figures and styles in circulation are mediated and updated through these everyday symbolic interactions, within a soc…
La gastronomie, question tarte à la crème ?
2024
La gastronomie fait partie de ces notions de sens commun que chacun se représente aisément mais que personne n'arrive à définir véritablement. Pourtant les approches ne manquent pas mais elles déplacent volontiers le curseur, entre le discours, les arts de la table, la culture et finalement tout un écosystème. On peut néanmoins se donner des repères pour fixer les idées, à défaut de trouver la formule ou la formulation idéale :- Repères historiques, bien sûr, qui font ou feraient de la gastronomie une "invention bien française". - Repères littéraires, entre toutes les classifications des "espèces de mangeurs" ou se distinguent gourmets et gourmands, et en mode dépréciatif, gloutons et goinf…
Online environmental activism and Internet use in the Indonesian environmental movement
2013
Author's version of an article in the journal: Information Development. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0266666913485260 This article investigates the use of the Internet among Indonesian environmental non-governmental organizations (ENGOs) and how this use influences the mobilizing structure of the environmental movement. The discussion is informed by an explorative study of nineteen Indonesian ENGOs working in the domain of forest protection. The study reveals that the Internet empowers the environmental activism of these organizations by enhancing opportunities for political participation. A main finding in the article is that well-established organization…
Antibiotics and food in the American press
2021
AbstractThe emergence of antimicrobial resistant infections from food is well documented in the scientific literature but, in this kind of matter, the public opinion is an important policy driver and is vastly forged by traditional media. Here, we propose a text mining study through about 500 articles from two reference daily U.S. newspapers to assess the media coverage of this issue. Our results indicate that, since the middle of the 80s, the two journals considered here adopted a very different narrative around the issue, echoing civil society concerns in one case and the official discourse in the other.
Características y visibilidad de las revistas españolas de ciencias de la salud en bases de datos
2015
Se describen las características de 207 revistas españolas de ciencias de la salud activas en 2014 y su visibilidad en seis bases de datos biomédicas y multidisciplinares. Scopus e Ibecs son las bases de datos que mayor número de revistas cubren, y Medline y WoS las que menos. La disciplina mejor representada es medicina, seguida de psicología, enfermería y farmacia. Se observa la práctica ausencia de revistas editadas exclusivamente en papel, la existencia de revistas publicadas en inglés, el aumento de versiones bilingües español-inglés y el acceso gratuito a los contenidos. El artículo incorpora el censo de revistas, que puede servir de referencia para los investigadores para selecciona…
Dietas confinadas: análisis del discurso de la prensa sobre la nutrición en tiempos de Covid-19
2021
The essential elements of the Spanish press’s discourse on nutrition guidelines during the Covid-19 health crisis are identified. To do this, the evolution of media representation is examined, with a semantic analysis of the news appearing in the national media in Spanish regarding nutrition and Covid-19. The analyzed period is from 31 January 2020 to 31 January 2021. The content search carried out using the Factiva database identified 117 records, which were analysed using T-LAB software. The results reveal that the press warned of hoaxes regarding nutrition during the study period. Four semantic groups are identified, informing about the most appropriate eating patterns according to the d…
A Literature Review on Cloud Computing Adoption Issues in Enterprises
2014
Part 3: Creating Value through Applications; International audience; Cloud computing has received increasing interest from enterprises since its inception. With its innovative information technology (IT) services delivery model, cloud computing could add technical and strategic business value to enterprises. However, cloud computing poses highly concerning internal (e.g., Top management and experience) and external issues (e.g., regulations and standards). This paper presents a systematic literature review to explore the current key issues related to cloud computing adoption. This is achieved by reviewing 51 articles published about cloud computing adoption. Using the grounded theory approa…
Co-construct territorial cultures
2015
International audience; Carrying out investigations in the framework of the scientific network INTI (International Network of Territorial Intelligence, http://inti.hypotheses.org/), the main idea is here to value the contribution of multiple approaches in territorial information and communication science that can be experienced there. Inspired by the triad of Pestalozzi, these experiences have applied and adapted the territorial engineering approach "Catalyse" in their territories.From the cooperative structuring of information to concrete initiatives of local change, communication processes make possible iterations between understanding and action, in which the analysis of the effects of s…
Querytogether : Enabling entity-centric exploration in multi-device collaborative search
2018
Collaborative and co-located information access is becoming increasingly common. However, fairly little attention has been devoted to the design of ubiquitous computing approaches for spontaneous exploration of large information spaces enabling co-located collaboration. We investigate whether an entity-based user interface provides a solution to support co-located search on heterogeneous devices. We present the design and implementation of QueryTogether, a multi-device collaborative search tool through which entities such as people, documents, and keywords can be used to compose queries that can be shared to a public screen or specific users with easy touch enabled interaction. We conducted…
