Analysing B2B electronic procurement benefits – Information systems perspective
This paper presents electronic procurement benefits identified in four case companies. The
benefits achieved in the case companies were classified according to taxonomies from the
Information Systems discipline. Existing taxonomies were combined into a new taxonomy
which allows evaluation of the complex e-procurement impact. Traditional financial-based
methods failed to capture the nature of e-procurement benefits. In the new taxonomy, eprocurement
benefits are classified using scorecard dimensions (strategic, tactical and
operational), which allows the identification of areas of e-procurement impact, in addition
the benefits characteristic is captured (tangible, intangible, financial and non-financial)
Information systems evaluation in context–impact of the corporate level
The paper presents the results of a doctoral research related to Information Systems
evaluation in context. The authors propose changes in the context, the new level of contextual
analysis was added: the system context located between the internal and external context. The
system context reflects the fact that the case companies are business units and parts of the
corporations and IS evaluation is influenced by the corporation, Three levels of context
analysis can be used in case of IS evaluation in complex structures, such as corporations or
supply chain

Rozwiązania mobilne w sprzedaży i serwisie
Growing competition, higher customers expectations involved changes in business models. Today company’s staff have to be closer to the customers, to better understand their
needs, provide faster and better service. This situation creates
new problems; It is difficult to control and manage staff
what spends most of their time outside of the office, also are
problems with communication between company and workers.
Traditional voice phones are not enough to send all
required information, especially when electronic data
(e-mails, internet pages) getting more and more important.
One possible solution to solve these problems are mobile business
(m-enterprise) systems, which base on wireless communication
and mobile devices. In this article are describes
examples how mobile solutions can be connected with enterprise
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems to
provide support for sales and service staff.Wzrastające wymagania klientów i konkurencja powodują,
iż pracownicy muszą spędzać coraz więcej czasu poza przedsiębiorstwem.
Już nie tylko przedstawiciele handlowi, technicy, czy
kierowcy muszą udawać się do klienta - dotyczy to coraz większej
grupy pracowników. Problemem staje się zarządzanie pracownikami,
przydzielanie im zadań, kontrola czasu pracy i jej jakości.
Dlatego też powstają i coraz szerzej rozwijają się aplikacje
informatyczne oparte o bezprzewodowe przesyłanie danych, oraz
niewielkie przenośne urządzenia umożliwiające pracę poza biurem.
Rozwiązania te określane są jako Mobile Enterprise, m-Enterprise,
czy też mobile E-business. W artykule przedstawione zostały wybrane
rozwiązania informatyczne oparte o technologie mobilne, w powiązaniu
z systemem zarządzania relacjami z klientem, Customer
Relationship Management (CRM), oraz sposób, w jaki mogą one
pomóc w obszarze wspierania sprzedaży i serwisu technicznego.Zadanie pt. „Digitalizacja i udostępnienie w Cyfrowym Repozytorium Uniwersytetu Łódzkiego kolekcji czasopism naukowych wydawanych przez Uniwersytet Łódzki” nr 885/P-DUN/2014 zostało dofinansowane ze środków MNiSW w ramach działalności upowszechniającej nauk
Information Technology and Systems in the Visegrad Group of Countries (Czech Rep. Hungary, Poland and Slovakia) – A Literature Review
There are two aims of this editorial article. The first is to present the current state of research related to widely defined Information Technology (IT) and Information Systems (IS) in the Visegrád Group (V4) of countries. The second is to introduce articles included in the special issue. While there are already reviews focused on the transition economies (Roztocki & Weistroffer, 2015), there is a lack of reviews which cover the four Visegrád Group countries—the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia. All four countries share similarities, such as recent historical events; they joined the European Union (EU) in 2014 and NATO in 1999 (with exception of Slovakia which joined in 2004)—thus 2014, when this issue was completed, was a year full of anniversaries—10 years since joining the EU, 15 years since joining NATO (10 years for Slovakia); also it was the 25th anniversary of the first free 1989 elections in Poland. However, it is important to stress that there are also socio-economic and political differences between the V4 countries. The transformation process from the centrally planned economy to the free market, from communism to democracy, was not easy and smooth and was full of mistakes, problems, and delays; nevertheless, it is a remarkable achievement. Lessons learned from the transformation, including the role of technology in the creation of the modern economy, and relevant societal changes, should be collected and analyzed to be applied in different contexts. This is especially important when failed attempts of the transition and modernization processes in the Middle East, or some post-communist countries, such as Ukraine have been witnessed. This is also an important issue from the academic point of view, as, unfortunately, such lessons are neither widely captured, nor available internationally; Roztocki and Weistroffer (2015) pointed out that research focused on transition economies is very limited. There are some changes in this trend, following publications of special issues on the topic, edited by Roztocki and Weistroffer (2008a, 2008b, 2011a, 2011b); however, such publications were focused on all transitional economies. This special issue is likely to be the first one covering solely the Visegrád Group of countries—the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia.
This editorial article is structured as follows. First some main terms are defined; this is followed by a short methodology section, which explains the articles’ selection and literature review process. Afterward, the current status of IT/IS related research in V4 is presented, then the articles included in the special issue are overviewed, and finally some conclusions and directions for future research are offered
How to do: Telerehabilitation in heart failure patients
According to the present guidelines for heart failure patients, regular exercise training has
obtained the class of recommendation I, level of evidence A. Despite the benefits of cardiac
rehabilitation, many heart failure patients are inactive. Common patient’s rejection of existing
forms of rehabilitation and limitations resulting from the disease itself hinder the outpatient
cardiac rehabilitation. That is why home telerehabilitation seems to be the optimal form of
physical activity for heart failure patients
