The growing importance of enterprise risk management and the resulting integration efforts put the need for separate IT risk management frameworks in question. In this research we analyse common and distinct elements of the COSO enterprise risk management and ISACA Risk IT frameworks. The analysis affirms the hypothesis that separate IT risk management frameworks are redundant.

Given the importance of IT investments in today’s organization, firms tend to spend increasing amounts of time and resources to better manage IT projects. However these projects continue to have high failure rates thus highlighting the need for improved risk management. A stream of IS research has focused on identifying several causes of managerial risks. The theory base that has been used in t...

Solar panels have been improving in efficiency and dropping in price, and are therefore becoming more common and economically viable. However, the performance of solar panels depends not only on the weather, but also on other external factors such as shadow, dirt, dust, etc. In this paper, we describe a simple and practical data-driven method for classifying anomalies in the power output of sol...

This paper proposes real-time interactive systems illuminating your shadows cast on the floor, which we name “Graphic Shadow.” They will make you experience an exciting space of interaction performing an illusion on your own shadow.

Though IT usage has been identified as a significant construct, significant gaps remain in our understanding of how IT is used by different organizational members. In this paper, we examine the key organizational, external environmental, and IT-related factors that influence IT usage in organizations across management and non-management levels. Based on data from over 500 functional managers, w...

A new approach for vague risk analysis based on the ranking of trapezoidal vague sets is proposed. Firstly, a new method for ranking of vague sets is presented. Then, the proposed method is applied to developed a new method for dealing with vague risk analysis problems. This analysis helps us to find out the probability of failure of each components of combustion system, which could be used for...

Society for Risk Analysis (Europe) Conference From the everyday to the extraordinary: challenges for risk analysis and management

This paper proposes a Cross Impact Analysis for supporting critical infrastructures risk analysis. This methodology contributes to decision-makers and planners with analytical tools for modeling complex situations. These features are generally useful in emergency management and particularly within the critical infrastructures scope, where complex scenarios for risk analysis and emergency plans ...

This paper reports the results of a study aimed at understanding and characterising IT management sophistication in small businesses. A multiple-case study approach was therefore used to explore the IT management practices of small businesses. Data collection involved four small-medium chartered accountancy (CA) firms and three IT firms closely associated with the CA industry. The case results ...
