organizational factors affecting Internet Technology adoption
Internet Research, 2006Co-Authors: Ana Rosa Del Aguilaobra, Antonio PadillamelendezAbstract:Purpose – To explore the factors that affect the implementation of Internet technologies and to what extent the size of the company, as an organizational factor, influences that process.Design/methodology/approach – According to the innovation adoption theory, it was found that Internet adoption in firms is a process with different stages where a company is in one of a number of development stages depending on some variables related to organizational factors, such as the availability of Technology resources, organizational structure, and managerial capabilities. The paper identified empirically different stages in the Internet adoption process and linked them with those factors. It analyzed questionnaire‐based data from 280 companies, applying factor and clustering analysis.Findings – Four main groups of companies were found according to their stage in the adoption of Internet technologies. The paper established that, contrary to the literature suggestions, the size of the company does not have any effect...

ict services and small businesses productivity gains an analysis of the adoption of broadband Internet Technology
Information Economics and Policy, 2013Co-Authors: Massimo G Colombo, Annalisa Croce, Luca GrilliAbstract:Abstract We analyse the impact of the adoption of broadband Internet Technology on the productivity performance of small and medium enterprises (SMEs). We distinguish access to the broadband infrastructure from the adoption of complementary services, i.e., different types of broadband software applications. The empirical analysis considers a sample of 799 firms observed from 1998 to 2004 that are representative of the population of Italian SMEs. Our econometric estimates indicate that the impact of the adoption by SMEs of basic broadband applications is negligible (or even negative). Conversely, SMEs are found to benefit from adopting selected advanced broadband applications depending on several contingent factors: (i) their industry of operations (services vs. manufacturing); (ii) the relevance of the specific broadband software applications for SMEs’ industry of operation; and (iii) the undertaking of complementary strategic and organisational changes.

The current state and future of Internet Technology-based hypertension management in Japan
Hypertension Research, 2021Co-Authors: Junichi Yatabe, Midori Sasaki Yatabe, Atsuhiro IchiharaAbstract:Internet-based information and communication Technology is altering our lives. Although medicine is traditionally conservative, it can benefit in many ways from adopting new Technology and styles of care. Hypertension is a prime condition for the practical application of digital health management because it is prevalent and undercontrolled, and its primary index, home blood pressure, can be effectively telemonitored. Compared to other conditions that require laboratory measures or the use of drugs with frequent side effects, hypertension can be managed without actual office visits with sufficiently low risk. In this review of hypertension in Japan, we discuss the current and somewhat fragmented state of Internet Technology and the components and processes necessary for smooth, integrated, and multidisciplinary care in the future. Although further clinical trials are required to show the safety and efficacy of information and communication Technology-based care for hypertension, the deployment of telemonitoring and telemedicine in daily practice should be expedited to solve the hypertension paradox. Challenges remain relating to cost, data integration, the redesigning of team-based care, and the improvement of user experience, but information and communication Technology-based hypertension management is sure to become pivotal in improving public health.
