Electronic commerce and the organizational impact

E-commerce quickly becomes an instrument of strategic importance for companies. Choosing e-commerce supposes developing and deploying intercompanies architectures supported by the use of information technologies and communications (IT&C) and especially by the Internet technology in commercial transactions and also in evaluating the changes made within the company. Changes’` management is a condition for the success or failure of the e-commerce. Research in organizational changes brought by the e-commerce concern many themes, as: organizational impact using IT&C within companies (Venkatraman, 1991; Gilbert, 2001; Reix, 2002), numerical company: challenges and consequences for the new informational systems (Isaac, 2000), e-commerce and organizational changes (Mennis, 2003), understanding business models and strategies (Afuah 2003), strategic alignement and business performance (Bergeron & al. 2002). Our paper presents a general analysis framework of the impact for the e-commerce supported by the analysis of IT&C impact within companies. It could stimulate interesting ideas concerning the e-commerce impact and elaborating e-commerce model coherent with the specific of the companiesE-Commerce; Informational technologies and communications (IT&C); E-business

L’IMPLANTATION DE L’ERP : FACTEURS CLES DU SUCCES ET IMPACTE SUR LA PERFORMANCE

The implantation of an ERP (abbreviation for "Enterprise Resource Planning") system is an enterprise project that implies the remodeling of the information system, mostly the rethinking of management procedures within the organization. The expansion and the complexity of these projects demand a theoretical framework and « optimal practices » in order to model and to evaluate the key factors of implementation success and to analyze its impact on the organization’s performance. The research problem of our communication can be divided into three research questions: • What conceptual framework for ERP implantation? • What are the key factors of success in ERP implantation? • What is the relationship between ERP implantation and enterprise performance?Enterprise Resource Planning, organizational change, integration, Key factors of success, organization performance.

Fe₃O₄@C Matrix with Tailorable Adsorption Capacities for Paracetamol and Acetylsalicylic Acid: Synthesis, Characterization, and Kinetic Modeling

In this study Fe3O4@C matrix was obtained by combustion method and used hereafter as adsorbent for paracetamol and acetylsalicylic acid removal from aqueous solutions. The Fe3O4@C matrix was characterized by electronic microscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and magnetic measurements. Two kinetic models of pseudo first-order and pseudo-second-order for both paracetamol and acetylsalicylic acid were studied. The experimental data were investigated by Langmuir, Freundlich, and Redlich−Peterson adsorption isotherm models. The adsorption followed the Redlich−Peterson and pseudo-second-order models with correlation coefficients R2 = 0.98593 and R2 = 0.99996, respectively, for the adsorption of paracetamol; for the acetylsalicylic acid, the adsorption followed the Freundlich and pseudo-second-order model, with correlation coefficients R2 = 0.99421 and R2 = 0.99977, respectively. The equilibrium was quickly reached after approximately 1h for the paracetamol adsorption and approximately 2h for acetylsalicylic acid adsorption. According to the Langmuir isotherm, the maximum adsorption capacity of the magnetic matrix was 142.01 mg·g−1 for the retention of paracetamol and 234.01 mg·g−1 for the retention of acetylsalicylic acid. The benefits of using the Fe3O4@C matrix are the low cost of synthesis and its easy and fast separation from solution by using an NdBFe magnet

Intravenous NPA for the treatment of infarcting myocardium early: InTIME-II, a double-blind comparison on of single-bolus lanoteplase vs accelerated alteplase for the treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction

Aims to compare the efficacy and safety of lanoteplase, a single-bolus thrombolytic drug derived from alteplase tissue plasminogen activator, with the established accelerated alteplase regimen in patients presenting within 6 h of onset of ST elevation acute myocardial infarction. Methods and Results 15 078 patients were recruited from 855 hospitals worldwide and randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive either lanoteplase 120 KU. kg-1 as a single intravenous bolus, or up to 100 mg accelerated alteplase given over 90 min. The primary end-point was all-cause mortality at 30 days and the hypothesis was that the two treatments would be equivalent. By 30 days, 6.61% of alteplase-treated patients and 6.75% lanoteplase-treated patients had died (relative risk 1.02). Total stroke occurred in 1.53% alteplase- and 1.87% lanoteplase-treated patients (ns); haemorrhagic stroke rates were 0.64% alteplase and 1.12% lanoteplase (P=0.004). The net clinical deficit of 30-day death or non-fatal disabling stroke was 7.0% and 7.2%, respectively. By 6 months, 8.8% of alteplase-treated patients and 8.7% of lanoteplase-treated patients had died. Conclusion Single-bolus weight-adjusted lanoteplase is an effective thrombolytic agent, equivalent to alteplase in terms of its impact on survival and with a comparable risk-benefit profile. The single-bolus regimen should shorten symptoms to treatment times and be especially convenient for emergency department or out-of-hospital administration. (C) 2000 The European Society of Cardiology
