This paper reviews, compares, and integrates existing Knowledge Management Maturity Models (KMMM) to propose a General KMMM (G-KMMM), which focuses on assessing the maturity of people, process and technology aspects of KM development in organizations. An accompanying assessment tool is also developed to facilitate practical application. The utility of G-KMMM is explored in a case study of a lar...

The efforts of a Government to provide ICTs in a developing country are mostly well intended but not always successful. To establish why this happens can be a complex process. Influencing government initiatives are a variety of inhibitors, enablers and influences ranging from the diversity of stakeholders and their cultures and history, to skill levels, existing infrastructure, economic conditi...

Power usage within a Data Center (DC) goes beyond the direct power needs of servers to include networking, cooling, lighting and facilities management. Data centers range from closet-sized operations, drawing a few kilowatts (kW), to mega-sized facilities, consuming tens of megawatts (MWs). In almost all cases, independent of size there exists significant potential to improve both the economic ...

Data centres are complex eco-systems that interconnect elements of the ICT, electrical, and mechanical fields of engineering and hence the efficient operation of a data centre requires a diverse range of knowledge and skills from each of these fields. The Innovation Value Institute (IVI), a consortium of leading organizations from industry, the not for profit sector, and academia, have develope...

Current architecture assessment models focus on either architecture maturity or architecture alignment, considering the other as an explaining sub-variable. Based on an exploratory study, we conjecture that both alignment and maturity are equally important variables in properly assessing architecture organizations. Our hypothesis is that these variables conceptually differ, correlate, but do no...

Recent arguments in the dynamic capabilities literature suggest that firms need to develop skills with both internal development and external sourcing to be able to thrive over time. We have a limited understanding of the conditions that best suit internal and external sourcing, however, while no largescale study has examined the extent to which firms’ ability to form coherent portfolios of int...
