  1. 11. On the Economic Return of a Software Investment – Managing Cost, Benefit and Uncertainty

    Författare :Emil Numminen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Economic Return; Managerial Decisions; Real Option; Software Investment; Uncertainty;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this dissertation is to explore how the economic return of a software investment can be assessed and managed. This topic has been studied in research and has been a concern for firms making software investments. In order to study this we need a model of the underlying factors affecting the economic return.

  3. 12. Strategic Objectives in Complex Planning Environments : Insights from a Swedish Case for Critical Infrastructure Protection

    Författare :Christine Große; Aron Larsson; Olof Björkqvist; Pär M. Olausson; Henrik Tehler; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Systemic Thinking; Soft Operations Research; design-oriented Information Systems Research; Governance; Complex Systems; Critical Infrastructure Protection; Largescale Planning; Multi-level Planning; Strategic Management;

    Sammanfattning : Large-scale and long-term planning imposes extensive requirements on governance efforts regardless of whether it involves public organisations, private organisations, or both. The proportions of such planning entangle many actors and stakeholders as system components within and around a complex system. LÄS MER
