The importance of Business-IT alignment has been well emphasized, and the topic has been a top management concern for the past four decades. The current business environment demands in response to digitalization have made Business-IT alignment even more challenging. We take on the challenge in this research by presenting a comprehensive review of the domain of Business-IT alignment, based on a conceptual model which we propose, to facilitate future theoretical work. The review brought out multiple representations of the concept of Business-IT alignment and the characterization of its antecedents, nature, and outcomes. Based on the treatment of the domain in the extant literature, we chart out possible areas of future explorations. By doing so, this research lays a foundation for continuing inquiry on Business-IT alignment and facilitating future theoretical work.

This study's objective is to use the construal-level theory (CLT) to explore the effect of the utility of online travel reviews on tourists' perception. To accomplish this goal, online travel reviews are divided into two different categories based on concreteness, and the usefulness of each review is compared with the temporal dimension of psychological distance. The results show that close future tourists are more influenced by concrete reviews than abstract reviews; however, the far future tourists are more influenced by abstract reviews than concrete reviews. Based on these results, theoretical and practical implications are discussed, and suggestions are made for future research.

This study identified financial management patterns of college students, and compared socioeconomic characteristics among different groups of financial management patterns. Also, the study examined the level of financial knowledge of college students, and compared it among the groups of financial management patterns. Data fur this study were from a questionnaire completed by 4-year college students (n=364), and were analyzed by factor analysis, cluster analysis, chi-square test, and ANOVA. The findings of this study were as follows: First, the financial management patterns were categorized by four groups: rational management group, future-oriented group, active management group, and present-oriented group. Secondly, younger students were more likely to be in the present-oriented group, while older students were likely to be in the future-oriented or active management group. Male students were likely to be the active managers, but female were likely to be the rational managers. Students' income was higher for future-oriented or active management groups, and their part-time jobs and their experiences of financial education were also significant variables. Thirdly, the average score of college students' financial knowledge was 49.9 on a 100 point basis. The part of financial assets and investment had only 47 points. The group of rational managers and active managers received higher points than the other groups.

Most companies have been increasing temporary work projects to maximize the usage of their resources. They also have been developing the effective techniques for analyzing and managing the state of the projects. In order to monitor the state of a project in real-time and predict the project's future state more accurately, this paper suggests the Bayesian Network (BN) as a tool for discovering the causes of project risk and presenting the failure probability of the project. The proposed BN modeling method with consideration of the Earned Value Management (EVM) method shows how to induce the predictive and conditional probability of the risk occurrence in the future. The advantages of the suggested model are (1) that the cause of a project risk can be easily figured out via the BN, (2) that the future value of the project can be sufficiently increased by updating relevant components of the project, and (3) that more credible prediction can be made in the similar and future situation by using the data obtained in current analysis. A numerical example is also given.

The purposes of this study were 1) to investigate the importance level on factors affecting the foodservice management contract perceived by the clients in the office building, government and public offices and manufacturing company in Seoul and Kyungi 2) to compare the perceived importance levels of the present contract and future contract 3) to compare the perceived importance levels of the competitive bid with those of the private contract. To collect the data on the perceived importance level on the affecting the foodservice management contract, the questionnaires were developed by the delphi technique and modified by the pilot test. The questionnaires consisted of 4 categories and 19 items on the factors affecting the foodservice management contract and the importance level on the factors were measured by 5-likert scale. From March 12 to April 13 in 2003, the self-administrative questionnaires were mailed to 280 clients. The questionnaires were responded from the 50 clients (respondent rate: 25％). On the factors affecting the present contract and the future contract, among the 4 categories (the appropriateness of foodservice operation plan, the evaluation of the foodservice company, sales ability, the conditions of the cost in the contract), the importance level of the appropriateness of foodservice operation plan was higher than those of the other categories. In the comparison of the perceived importance level between the present contract and the future contract, the importance level of 4 items (sanitation and safety management plan, menu management plan, service management plan, food cost per meal) in the future contract were significantly higher than those in the present contract (p＜.01, p＜.05, p＜.05, p＜.01). There were the significant differences between the private contract and competitive bid on the factors affecting the present contract in the 3 items, which were $\ulcorner$renewal plan for interior and environment$\lrcorner$, $\ulcorner$strategic alliance with the contractor$\lrcorner$, $\ulcorner$lobby of the foodservice company$\lrcorner$ (p＜.05, p＜.05, p＜.05). And on the factors affecting the future contract, there were significant differences in the 2 items, which were $\ulcorner$renewal plan for interior and environment$\lrcorner$and $\ulcorner$cost per meal$\lrcorner$in comparing the competitive bid and private contract (p＜.05, p＜.01). The clients perceived the appropriateness of foodservice operation plan was more important than the other categories in the future foodservice management contract. It was proposed that the foodservice management contract company should focus on the foodservice operation to satisfy the customers and clients in order to get more contract in the future.
