The objective of this study is to examine the trends in information systems research. The abstracts of 1,245 articles were extracted from three leading Korean journals published between 2002 and 2016: Asia Pacific Journal of Information Systems, Information Systems Review, and The Journal of Information Systems. Time series analysis and topic modeling methods were implemented. The topic modeling results showed that the research topics were mainly "systems implementation", "communication innovation", and "customer loyalty". The time series regression results indicated that "customer satisfaction", "communication innovation", "information security", and "personal privacy" were hot topics, and on the other hand, "system implementation" and "web site" were the least popular. This study also provided suggestions for future research.

The results show that there is a difference between China and Korea in all factors of technology readiness. In particular, Chinese users' optimism, innovation and discomfort were higher and insecurity was higher in Korean users. These results are expected to provide a strategic approach to expand the use of third-party mobile payment services.

In this study, the influence of the CEOs' characteristics on the technology innovation performances of IT venture companies was analyzed. The relation between business performance and the characteristics of CEOs has been dealt with in earlier studies, but most paid attention to financial perspective, and few of these focused on the influence of managers on technology innovation. On the other hand, most of the studies related to the role of managers in technology innovation mainly focused on R&D investment and research infrastructure but did not delve on the characteristics of them in an in-depth way. In this study, the characteristics of CEOs and their technology innovation performances were empirically analyzed based on the results of a recently conducted survey on the IT venture companies. In the analytical aspect, a negative binominal model was applied to solve the over-dispersion problem that often appears in the count variable analysis. As a result, it was found that major, work type, and work experience, among managers' characteristics, have significant influences on managers' technology innovation performances, along with the company's innovation capacity, technological competitiveness, market competition, and support from the government.

Based on the user-centered innovation theory of von Hippel (2005), this research seeks to provide a case study of user innovation in the automobile navigation industry, which is a representative applied service in the area of Location-Based Service (LBS). The automobile navigation development and maintenance/repair processes of M&Soft are analyzed around the seven characteristics of user innovation as outlined by von Hippel. As a result, among the three strategic responses of sellers in the successful utilization of user innovation, it was determined that the approach of M&Soft was limited to providing an easy-to-use information technology platform so as to encourage members to easily share all types of map or mobile information or ideas. The significance of this paper is in that the theory of von Hippel originally based on physical products was applied to digital ones in line with the trend of increasing importance of Internet-based content services.

ERP adoption characteristics like IS planning and change management before ERP implementation are rising in importance, because of gaining competitive advantage. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of the characteristics of ERP adoption on ERP implementation success. From previous researches on ERP adoption and implementation, two characteristics of ERP adoption such as IS planning and change management, and 2 dependent variables such as process innovation and business performance, are identified. From data collection processes, 122 samples are collected. The results of hypothesis testing show that organizations with IS plan have higher implementation performance than organizations without IS plan. Also, organizations with the process of change management have higher implementation performance than organizations without the process of change management. Also, The interaction effect between IS planning and change management shows bigger impact in ERP implementation success.

AI is recognized to be a key technology for digital transformation (DT) and the value of AI is considered to determine the future of the company. However, in reality, although managers acknowledge the future value of AI and have plans to introduce it, most are not sure what to expect from AI or how to apply it to their business. This study compares two company cases to demonstrate how an organization has successfully achieved AI led organizational change while another failed. Specifically, by taking institutionalist's view, this study examines how the legitimacy enables and constrains AI led organizational changes in organization's practices, processes, and infrastructure. The results of this study indicate that for the success of AI led organizational changes, the legitimacy plays an important role by reducing the challenges from stakeholders and increasing the institutional momentum to move through the phases of the change.
