Electronic Data Interchange(EDI) is a relatively new technique around the world and enables the firm more competitive because of transmitting computer-generated documents directly to a firm's trading partner's computer across a telecommunication network. This study investigates the relationship among the organizational characteristics and information systems(IS) maturity, and the extent of internal and external diffusion of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) in Korean firms. The data for this study were collected from 131 firms that have implemented EDI. The results of t-test show that subgroups classified by industry, the extent of decentralization and formalization, and IS maturity, except the size of organization, are not different in the extent EDI diffusion. Also, the results of multiple regression analysis show that the size of organization is the major predictor of internal diffusion, and IS maturity and the size of organization are the major predictors in external diffusion of EDI. This study implies that the size of organization among organization characteristics and IS maturity should be considered as important variables for the diffusion of EDI system.

Many researchers have studied the theme on CASE technology. However, there are no many researches which lightened the diffusion of CASE technology and organizational change. The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors that influence on the diffusion of CASE technology and the way how IS organization changes as a result of the diffusion. We exploited a case study research as a methodology. We selected five software development firms which possessed the leading IS technology abilities as the case companies. We realized that the diffusion of CASE technology proceeded under the three context variables - managerial context of information systems, the intent and behavior of key players and implementation strategy of organization - to enhance the performance of information systems. The contribution of this study is to clarify the change of IS organization as a result of CASE technology diffusion. This study has the limitation that tried to analyze the organizational change only in a direction.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the diffusion period and productivity of smartwork in an organization. Firms are increasingly interested in smartwork for non contact work and working from home because of the corona 19. The smartwork is a new technology that changes face-to-face work in an organization. It helps the work of individuals and organizations regardless of time and place. The theoretical background describes the complexity, system thinking, diffusion theory, smart work, organizational resistance, and productivity. This study analyzes the diffusion period and productivity of smart work through business simulation techniques. A simulation study progresses four stages. There are problem definition, hypothesis establishment and causal loop diagram, model construction and verification, and policy evaluation. The simulation models contain an individual's resistance variables organizational investment and leadership variables related to the operation of smartwork. The organizational investment variables include organizational culture, legal system, implement systems and technology investment. The individual resistance variables include cognitive, attitude, structure and technological resistance. The leadership includes leadership interest variables and performance linkage variables. The simulation executed the changes of a people number adopting smart work and the organizational productivity monthly. As a result of the simulation, many organization members have accepted the smart work innovation after 20 months. The organizational productivity through smart work showed very high value after 16 months. In scenario analysis, the individuals' awareness and attitude resistance showed very important variables to productivity and a personal change of smart work adoption. Meanwhile, The organizational investment showed that the high driving-force increased not productivity and the low driving-force showed decreased low productivity. Also, leadership variables showed a powerful driver for changing smart work productivity. The implication of the study has suggested extending complexity, diffusion theory and organization resistance theory based on simulation methods.

With the progress of IT, the strategic use of information systems (IS) has been applied to the inter-organization business areas, that is called Inter-organization Systems (IOS). Previous IT diffusion researches or IT adoption researches have been focused to newly emerged IT but confined into individual organization. However, IOS such as internet relates with between organizations. In this sense, this research has analysed the IT diffusion factors affected by IOS based on the previous studies of IT adoption. This study employed a research model using the factors of adopting IOS in organization, and conducted an empirical research with questionaries with top domestic 80 firms. And the finding is that the factors of the CIO support, business partners and an industry community have significance but other factors such as the size of firm, the degree of IS maturity, the degree of firm centrality, the complexity or suitability of IOS does not.

Diffusion of non-professional flower growing in Korea still lags behind. The objectives of the study are to establish a theoretical modes to explain the diffusion of social floriculture, to identify some characteristics and problems of growing flower crops to cultivate amenities and emotions, and to suggest remedial measures for fostering it. Theoretical model adopted in this study consists of such variables as education, social movement, policies, diffusion of social flower growing, amenities, and emotional cultivation. For identifying the diffusion characteristics of flower growing, projects implemented by a non-governmental organization, schools, local and central government organizations were analyzed. In order to stimulate the diffusion of social flower growing and to increase its effects, there needs to strengthen education of stakeholders, establishment of partnership among schools, non-governmental and governmental organizations, and institutional supports including manpower and finances. Linking flower growing projects to community festival and tourism development programs can foster institutionalization of community flower growing. Furthermore, the introduction of wild, symbolic and traditional flowers and trees will help to specialize and improve community landscapes.

Objectives: Antivenom serums have been used extensively for over a century and are the only effective treatment option for snake bites and other dangerous animal envenomations. In therapeutic serum centers, a wide range of antivenoms is made from animal serum, mainly equine and sheep, that are immunized with single or multiple venoms. This work aimed to use caprylic acid (CA) to purify therapeutic snake antivenom. Methods: Plasma was obtained from equine immunized with a mixture of venoms. Immunized plasma was obtained by precipitation of different concentrations (2-5%) of CA. This methodology was compared to that based on ammonium sulfate (AS) precipitation. Sediment plasma proteins were purified by ion-exchange chromatography. Protein assay, SDSPAGE, and agar gel diffusion were performed. Results: The total protein precipitation with AS was higher than precipitation with CA, but the best results were obtained when CA was added to the plasma until a final CA concentration of 5% was reached. Chromatography and electrophoresis indicated a stronger band for the 5% CA, and the gel diffusion assay showed antigen-antibody interaction in the purified serum. Conclusion: The use of CA compared to the routine method for purifying hyperimmune serums is a practical and cost-effective method for preparing and producing therapeutic serums. It constitutes a potentially valuable technology for alleviating the critical shortage of antivenom in Iran.

A deeper understanding of how organizations behave as social complex adaptive systems is needed. In this paper we demonstrate how the Leadership Invigorating Flows of Energies model can help with this understanding. The model highlights the role of emergent leadership as a force encouraging the creation, diffusion, and utilization of knowledge through self-organizing mechanisms. We illustrate our approach by examining Wikipedia and show how it can be described as a social CAS. Our analysis of Wikipedia describes how emerging intrapreneurship behaviors result in dynamic flows of knowledge and self-organizing feedback mechanisms across the organization. We provide implications for organization studies and present evidence to support claims made by advocates of complexity theory. We conclude by proposing that Wikipedia can be seen as a new form of organization, and finish with a brief note highlighting a possible way forward.

이 연구는 국내 대학 소속 교수학습개발센터(CTL)의 운영과정을 신제도주의 동형화 이론을 바탕으로 고찰하는데 목적이 있다. 신제도주의자들은 조직의 구조와 행동이 조직의 자율적, 합리적 선택이라기보다는 사회에서 인정되는 가치와 규범을 반영하는 것으로 본다. 광범위한 선행연구와 관련 문헌연구 방법을 통해 그리고 동형화 이론적 틀을 바탕으로 CTL의 도입 및 확산, 제도화 과정을 분석한 결과, 국내 대학 CTL의 도입 및 확산 과정에서는 정부 주관의 강제적 동형화와 대학 간 상호 모방 효과가 상대적으로 크게 작동하였다. 또한 전문협의체인 대학교육개발센터협의회는 규범적 동형화의 직접적인 주체로서 핵심적인 역할을 수행하였다. 즉, 국내 대학 CTL은 환경에 대한 외적 정당성 확보를 위한 과정으로 볼 수 있고, 특히 대학은 정부의 평가 기준에 순응 및 동조하면서 조직 형태를 동형화시켰음을 확인할 수 있었다. 급변하는 대학교육 환경의 변화에 대응하여 CTL이 주도적으로 대학교육 발전의 엔진이 될 수 있도록 고유한 가치와 전략을 개발하고 이를 대학 실정에 맞게 발전시키는 노력이 필요하다.
