앞으로 전산 시스템에서는 독자적인 사용자의 전산 시스템 이용보다는 조직내의 다수의 작업 참여자간의 의사소통과 정보의 교환 및 공유가 원활히 이루어지도록 할 수 있는 시스템의 지원이 필요하게 되었다. 이러한 전산환경을 CSCW(Computer Supported Cooperative Work)환경이라고 하며 많은 구성원이 공통된 자원을 공유함으로 해서 발생할 수 있는 보안 문제가 발생하게 된다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위한 방안으로 최근 다수의 사용자가 공유자원을 사용하는데 있어 발생할 수 있는 관리의 복잡성을 해결하기 위해 RBAC(Role Based Access Control) 개념이 연구되고 있다. 그러나 CSCW환경과 같이 Work개념이 중요한 환경에서는 기존의 RBAC개념만으로는 공유자원의 접근제어문제 해결에 어려움이 있어 본 논문에서는 Work개념을 RBAC모델에 도입한 CSCW환경 하에서의 RBAC 모델을 제시해 보고자 한다.

Work is a bibliographic entity serving a key role for the collocation function of catalog. This study analyzed the concept of work, provided a new device to complement conventional FRBR work. The 'prototype' was suggested to enhance the collocation function of catalog, the highest level in FRBR. This study explained the definition, attributes of prototype, and relationships between prototype and work within FRBR model.

Due to the rapid development of information communication technology, employees have conducted their tasks with smart devices such as smartphones and tablet PCs in the midst of after work hours. In line with this phenomenon, we have examined the relationships among technostress, work connectivity behavior after hours (WCBA) and technostress inhibitors and job satisfaction. Based on the results of prior research, we developed and tested our research model which posits the certain factors such as technostress, WCBA and technostress inhibitors affect work-life conflicts which, in turn influence employees' job satisfaction. Survey data collected from 345 users who have experiences on using smart devices was used to test the model using PLS (partial least squares). In this study, we found that technostress and WCBA were positively related to the work-life conflicts. We also found that the relationship between technostress inhibitors and job satisfaction was significant. The implications of these findings for both research and practice are discussed.

Purpose: The study examined core job characteristics and job preference to explain work performance among critical care nurses. The theoretical model was constructed based on the job characteristics model with core job characteristics as exogenous variables, and work performance and job preference as endogenous variables. Methods: A total of 228 hospital nurses participated in the study from May to September, 2015. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using structural equation modeling. Results: The model showed a good fit to the data with $x^2/df=2.90$, goodness of fit index = .91, root mean square residual = .20, comparative fit index = .93, and incremental fit index = .93. The core job characteristics explained 64% of the variance in job preference. The core job characteristics and job preference explained 52% of the variance in work performance. Conclusions: The core job characteristics can explain the work performance among critical care nurses through job preference. Effective strategies to improve the work performance among critical care nurses should focus on the application of the core job characteristic into a productive work environment. Further studies are warranted to explore the role of job preference of critical care nurses in promoting their work performance.

Motivating employee work engagement, which has emerged as one of the most significant drivers of high performance and achievement in today's dynamic environment, has become essential in gaining a sustainable competitive advantage. As widely known, leadership is a primary factor affecting work engagement. This is also directly related to a specific style of leadership exercised. Leadership styles affect the work engagement levels of the employees. The distracting nature of leadership type can have adverse impacts on individuals' behaviors. To provide a comprehensive understanding of the phenomenon, this article draws on social interaction theory and social exchange theory to investigate the potential effects of inclusive leadership on work engagement within the workplace, and the mediating role of psychological safety on the relationship between inclusive leadership and the work engagement. Here, psychological safety is needed by employees to avoid and manage negative feelings. SPSS and AMOS software was applied to survey data obtained from (n = 373) employees. Results revealed that inclusive leadership is a strong predictor for work engagement, and psychological safety partially mediates the link between inclusive leadership and work engagement. Implications for theory and practice alongside limitations are discussed.

This study aims to identify the relationship between human resource management practices, work engagement, and proactive behavior of health workers in Gia Lai Province in Vietnam. Based on theoretical frameworks of human resource management, work engagement, and proactive behavior, this study developed a research model and tested its relationship between human resource management practices, work engagement, and the proactive behavior of healthcare workers in Gia Lai Province. This research has used a mixed research method with qualitative and quantitative research. The quantitative research was conducted by survey with 232 health workers. The hypotheses were tested by using structural equation modeling (SEM). The findings showed that human resource management practices have a positive and significant influence on proactive behavior, which directly influences healthcare workers' work engagement. Besides, work engagement plays a role in mediating the influence of human resource management practices on proactive behavior. This research implies that health care organizations should pay more attention to human resource management practices to improve work engagement that assists in increasing employee proactive behavior. Efficient human resource management practices help boost work engagement and, initiality, improve the quality of health care services and minimize errors in treatments.

The modern government's role: As an enterprise (To be efficient and effective.); as a service and information provider (government processes that are unique to government). The modern government's role demand interoperation. The Web services architecture is based upon the interactions among three components: Service provider, service broker and service requestor. Service broker is sometimes referred to as service registry. The interactions involve publish, find and bind operations. The paper introduces the concept of web services as a way to realize interoperation between distributed applications. The paper addresses interoperation between e-government and citizen. The motivation of this work was to determine the potentials of the Web services technology for an interoperability infrastructure for e-government. In many countries, the traditional governments have many problems that stem from both insufficient and improper use of ICT. "Insufficient use" refers to the traditional means such as manual archiving systems. "Improper use", on the other hand, refers to the lack of an interoperability infrastructure within and among the government agencies. In this work.
