In this {\textquotedblleft}active learning{\textquotedblright} approach, it is equally important to optimize the creation of the initial ML model given less training data so that the model is able to capture most if not all positive examples, and filter out as many negative examples as possible for human annotators to correct. This paper reports our attempt to optimize the initial ML model through feature exploration in a complex content analysis project that uses a multidimensional coding scheme, and contains codes with sparse positive examples. While different codes respond optimally to different combinations of features, we show that it is possible to create an optimal initial ML model using only a single combination of features for codes with at least 100 positive examples in the gold standard corpus.}, author = {Jasy Liew Suet Yan and McCracken, Nancy and Shichun Zhou and Kevin Crowston} } @proceedings {2013, title = {Open Source Software Adoption: A Technological Innovation Perspective}, year = {2013}, month = {5/2013}, address = {Lyon, France}, abstract = {This research-in-progress aims to indentify the salient factors explaining adoption of open source software (OSS), as a technological innovation.

This paper intends to discuss the connection between FOSS and organizational learning in contexts where the usual assumptions about them cannot be taken for granted. It is argued that the relevance of open technologies as public goods is in allowing organizational learning in public administration. Such a focus on the organizational aspects would complement existing studies on the economical relevance of FOSS. The argument is built by addressing FOSS-related emphatic expectations for emancipation in the {\textquotedblleft}knowledge society{\textquotedblright} on one side (Government of Kerala 2002), and implementation and use, on the other. Then, a meso-level between global trends and local specificities is identified as crucial in situating FOSS for development potentialities. Empirically, this level is between the two usual poles in information systems studies: decision makers (public administrators and software developers, both oriented by a top-down approach to systems design) and the ground of implementation (usually sensitive to a variety of contexts). As it is unusual in developing contexts to have spontaneous voluntary participation, the software development process needs to be designed and carried out in a way that allows local organizations to {\textquotedblleft}indigenize{\textquotedblright} FOSS.1 Its fluidity allows inscribing a variety of context-bound socio-technical arrangements (De Laet and Mol 2000), and also can cause avoidance of path-dependencies and vendor lock-ins (Weerawarana and Weeratunge 2004). The case of a health information system being implemented in Kerala, as part of an international initiative, is presented. We describe, on one side, the principles and views supporting the network and local politics and, on the other side, aspects of the implementation dynamic, which is underestimated in the common approach to ICT for development (Avgerou 2007). The project presented in the paper has significant links both at the global level (participating in a broad and heterogeneous network of trend-setting organizations like universities and research centers, international donors, ministries of different countries) and local levels (where systems are piloted and implemented, capacity building is carried out, requirements for further developments are collected). Empirical exploration showed that the (formal and informal) institutional constraints, which FOSS implies and relies on, are fragmented or absent, whereas others can be relevant. Nevertheless, FOSS narrative proves to be present and effective both in negotiations between stakeholders, and in facilitating local participation to information system development.2 The meso-level position of this initiative shows the distance between the two ends, descriptively. Prescriptively, it suggests how possible bridges can allow interorganizational relations across a variety of actors rarely involved in the same FOSS initiative. The interactions around local technical skills improvement and the increased ability for organizations to formulate, express, negotiate, and inscribe their needs in technology is proposed as a chance for organizational learning. In contexts of multiple accountabilities (Suchman 2002), we claim that the relevance of FOSS emerges from negotiating alliances, and does not inhere in FOSS itself. FOSS facilitates learning as far as its openness is allowed by software development processes, and enacted by brokering activities to relate dispersed practices (Gherardi and Nicolini 2002). }, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-09768-8_31}, author = {Miscione, Gianluca and Margunn Aanestad} } @inbook {miscione2008organizationalsoftware, title = {Organizational learning in health care: Situating free and open source software}, volume = {267}, year = {2008}, month = {Jan}, pages = {372{\textendash}373}, abstract = {Free and open source software (FOSS) has been attracting the interest of organizations involved in the development and implementation of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in developing countries for years.

Traditional organizational boundaries blur in symbiotic, network-like entrepreneurial relationships (chapter 6). Technical infrastructures revolutionize markets (chapter 7) through the step-wise dissolution of spatial and temporal restriction. The increasing dissolution of locations, as well as the conditions for and implications of this for actual and future organizational forms, is the focal point of this chapter. Virtual organizations are an outgrowth of these developments. They therefore function more like spider-webs than networks. They are opposites of organizations that, with regard to ownership and contracts, have relatively well-defined boundaries, have a steady location, relatively permanent resource assignments, and controlled process structures. According to Aristotelian philosophy, virtuality may be regarded as an idealized goal of a boundless organization (Legrand 1972, p. 269). It may also be regarded as an organizational form that considers virtuality in the same sense as information systems researchers might, i.e. as a concept of performance improvement. This perspective also regards concrete locations where the actual work is carried out as systematic and dynamic (Mowshowitz 1991; Szyperski / Klein 1993). We will next address fundamental aspects of the dissolution of the work location, as well as questions pertaining to the drivers and organizational manifestations of dispersed work locations. The virtual organization as a specific result of telecooperative work forms is presented later.}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-71395-1_8}, author = {Picot, Arnold and Reichwald, Ralf and Wigand, Rolf} } @inbook {858, title = {OASIS in the Mirror: Reflections on the Impacts and Research of IFIP WG 8.2}, booktitle = {IFIP International Federation for Information Processing, Volume 214, The Past and Future of Information Systems: 1976-2006 and Beyond}, year = {2006}, note = {WCC Santiago, Chile}, pages = {63-66}, publisher = {Springer}, organization = {Springer}, address = {New York}, author = {Kenneth E.

We have good reasons, I suggest, to be skeptical of any claim that there is a need for a new, cyberspace ethics to address the moral dilemmas arising from these technologies.
