Cloud computing is a new method of computing and managing organizational information technology resources strategically. From the user perspective, it involves computing environment for accessing applications remotely, storing data, and supporting cooperative works. For the cloud computing to be effective in an organization, it should be accepted by individual users. In this paper we propose a research model, extending and modifying UTAUT model. We also test the validity of the model using the questionnaire from a sample of cloud computing services users.

The purpose of this study is to explore factores for subject teachers to actively participate in the LBI by establishing a relationship model between the acceptance variable and the variable for LBI and verifying with a structural equation based on the UTAUT model that explains the relationship between the variables that affect the process of accepting and utilizing the new information technology. As a result of the study, first, the performance expectancy and social influence of the subject teachers on LBI influenced the intention of teaching. Second, behavioral intention affected use behavior. Third, there were moderating effects of LBI perceived risk level on the relationship of subject teachers' social influence on LBI to behavioral intention. Based on the results above, performance expectancy, social influence, and perceived risks should be considered for activating LBI of subject teachers.

BSC(Balanced Scorecard: 균형성과표)는 1992년 기존의 성과관리접근법의 한계를 인식한 Kaplan & Norton(1992)에 의해서 발표된 후 새로운 성과관리시스템이자 다양한 혁신을 통해 경쟁력을 키우려는 많은 기업들로부터 각광 받고 있다. 특히 우리나라의 경우 변화와 혁신을 강조하는 참여정부의 출범 이후 공공분야의 BSC도입이 활발히 이루어지고 있으며 많은 공공부문 기관들이 도입을 추진하고 있다. 하지만 BSC관련 기존의 연구들은 대부분 조직의 성과에 미치는 영향을 살펴보거나 도입 프로세스에 관한 연구가 대부분이어서, BSC 수용에 있어 중요시 되는 요인들에 관한 실증연구는 부족한 실정이다. 정보시스템 형태로 구현되는 BSC를 보다 효율적으로 활용하기 위하여 BSC 수용요인에 대한 고찰이 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 정보시스템 형태로 구현된 BSC를 활용하는 사용자를 대상으로 실증분석을 통하여 수용에 영향을 미치는 요인을 확인하기 위한것이다. 구체적인 BSC 사용자들의 적극적인 활용을 장려하여 기업의 경영성과를 높일 수 있도록 BSC 수용에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 추출하고, TAM(Technology Acceptance Model)을 기본으로 영향정도를 파악하여 BSC를 이미 도입한 기업과 앞으로 도입하려는 기업들에게 사용자들의 보다 적극적인 활용을 장려할 수 있는 가이드라인을 제시하는데 있다.

In this paper we investigate the factors influencing the purchase intention of Smart-Phone which was introduced recently. Smart-Phone is a new information technology that converges PDA into a mobile phone. It has a various functions such as phone, information processing, Internet search etc. New information technology like Smart-Phone gives us a very important and interesting research issue, which is to find and prove the factors influencing the purchase intention. We try to find and prove the factors influencing the purchase intention of Smart-Phone by expanding Technology Acceptance Model. We include the perceived playfulness to the research model in order to analyze the factors. This empirical paper proves that the perceived usefulness, the perceived ease-of-use, and the perceived playfulness give positive effects to the purchase intention. In addition, this paper indicates some managerial implications that various and useful applications and the easy user interface can help to increase the degree of user acceptance.

In this paper, we propose a novel behavioral model that explains the use of the military battlefield management system more effectively in the non-voluntary use environment. This study intends to suggest a model based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology(UTAUT), an extended TAM. Also, it introduces the concept of 'Conative IS use' as a dependent variable that can explain user's behavior more effectively in non-voluntary technology acceptance environment. In addition, we propose the major factors affecting the UTAUT components from the TOE(Technology-Organization-Environment) perspectives, and analyze their effects. In order to validate the proposed model, this study applies PLS(Partial Least Squares) to the survey collected from military personnel. The findings of our study may shed a light on improving the effectiveness of battlefield management information system.

As the Cloud Computing services are growing fast in the world, the number of Cloud Computing service users are being increased enormously in China. Studies on Intention-to-Use have been one of the interesting topics in the field of marketing. In this paper we investigate the factors influencing the intention-to-use of Cloud Computing services in China. Our research model is based on Technology Acceptance Model and includes 'privacy', 'information needs', 'service types', 'service appropriation', 'system quality', and 'system security'. We surveys the Chinese Cloud Computing service users and analyzes with Structural Equation Model. The results show that 'privacy', 'service appropriation', 'system quality', and 'system security' give positive effects to 'intention-to-use'. However, 'information needs' and 'service types' does not give positive effects.

Conventional studies on technology acceptance have focused on information technology for utilitarian value and hence based on 'theory of reasoned action'. Correspondingly, the studies depend on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use as rational decision making elements. However, in ubiquitous society, innovative technologies are applied to non-task area, as well as task-oriented area. Therefore, users are more influenced by affective factors than cognitive factors in causing their usage intention. In line with those discussions, we cannot make sure that the conventional technology acceptance model could fully explain the current u-service acceptance phenomenon. Hence, to overcome the limitations of the prior technology acceptance studies, we propose an amended TAM which includes one hedonic factor and two factors on ubiquitous computing technology : ubiquity and intelligence.

This study analyzed the factors that affect acceptance of online direct marketing in agricultural companies. Empirical analysis was conducted using the research model based on the individual's technology acceptance model (TAM) and the information technology adoption models in organizations. These models have four dimensions: 1) technology characteristics, which include perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use of TAM 2) CEO characteristics, which including the innovativeness and IT capability of CEOs; 3) organizational readiness, which include financial, technological, and human resources capabilities and 4) environment and external pressure, which include government support and changes to the Internet environment. These concepts were empirically tested. A total of 209 valid data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis and path analysis through the application of structural equation modeling. Results show that perceived usefulness, IT capability of CEOs, and changes to the Internet environment have significant effects on the adoption intention of online direct marketing. However, perceived ease of use, CEO innovativeness, government support, and the variables of organizational readiness dimension did not have significant effects on adoption intention. This study suggests practical implications for adoption of online direct marketing in agricultural companies.

This study, based on flow theory and unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT), examines various factors that influence the continuous use of mobile applications, particularly those providing users with satisfaction and pleasure as well as useful information. This study extends the previous studies that have been based on technology acceptance model, in which usefulness and ease of use are key determinants of use of new technology, by introducing flow theory in explaining the use of various technologies in mobile environment. For this purpose, this study employes a survey based field study and collects data from individuals who use fashion mobile apps since these are considered to provide fun and pleasures. This study finds that flow theory is a proper framework to understand the use of mobile technology, indicating flow experience is an important variable to determine the usage of fashion apps. In addition, performance expectation, effort expectation, social influence, and facilitation condition are found to be significant in influencing use of mobile apps, suggesting UTAUT still plays an important role in understanding the use of mobile technology.

As smart devices have proliferated and mobile networks have accelerated, various wired IT(Information Technology) services are transplanted in wireless environments. Cloud computing service, enabling individual users or firm users to download data from a server and upload data after manipulating data, is also available in mobile devices. Unlike cloud service in wired network environments, mobile cloud service provides differentiated aspects in mobility, security issues caused by persistent connection to networks. In this paper we aim to analyze the factors affecting the user attitude and their structural relationships towards mobile cloud service use. We extend TAM(Technology Acceptance Model) to consider the characteristics of mobile environments. Research findings, analyzed by SEM(Structural Equation Model), are explained and practical implications are presented with concluding remarks.
