Why Should the Q-method Be Integrated Into the Design Science Research? A Systematic Mapping Study
(2019)
The Q-method has been utilized over time in various areas, including information systems. In this study, we used a systematic mapping to illustrate how the Q-method was applied within Information Systems (IS) community and proposing towards integration of Q-method into the Design Sciences Research (DSR) process as a tool for future research DSR-based IS studies. In this mapping study, we collected peer-reviewed journals from Basket-of-Eight journals and the digital library of the Association for Information Systems (AIS). Then we grouped the publications according to the process of DSR, and different variables for preparing Q-method from IS publications. We found that the potential of the Q-methodology can be used to support each main research stage of DSR processes and can serve as the useful tool to evaluate a system in the IS topic of system analysis and design
Globalization and information technology enable people to join the movement of global citizenship and work without borders. However, different type of barriers existed that could affect collaboration in today’s work environment, in which different generations are involved. Although researchers have identified several technical barriers to intergenerational collaboration (iGOAL), the influence of cultural diversity on iGOAL has rarely been studied. Therefore, using a quantitative study approach, this paper investigates the impact of differences in cultural background on perceived technical and operational barriers to iGOAL. Our study reveals six barriers to IGC that are perceived differently by culturally diverse people (CDP) and non-CDP. Furthermore, CDP can foster IGC because CDP consider the barriers to be of less of a reason to avoid working with different generations than do non-CDP.
In the course of this thesis, an overview will be given on which way developers can guide
users into acting environmentally friendly without the users realizing they are being
nudged. In the last couple of years, our private and work-life have been more and more
shifted away from reality into a digital context. Since the start of the Covid – 19 pandemic
in 2019, even more aspects of everyday life have been shifted to an online context, one
of them being groceries shopping. Even though online groceries shopping is not yet
common in Germany, there is a trend toward the online purchase of groceries visible.
This can be seen as a possibility to tackle another challenge the world is facing, the
climate crisis. One reason for the climate crisis is mindless consumption and purchasing
of too much food. This paper aims to combine the need for more aware consumption
with the newly rising trend of online supermarkets. Furthermore, a supermarket will be
provided to show if the implementation of environmentally–friendly nudges is technically
possible. To eventually prove the effectiveness of a nudge, it needs to be tested.

We are “not” too (young/old) to collaborate: Prominent Key Barriers to Intergenerational Innovation
(2019)
In this study, we analyzed the barriers to technology-supported intergenerational innovation to understand better how young and old can collaborate towards global innovations. Researchers in different disciplines have already identified various barriers to intergenerational collaboration. However, barriers are changing depending on the context of collaboration, and difficulties still exist to support intergenerational innovation in global settings. Therefore, we investigated the barriers that emerge when people work with someone decades older or younger. The results of our study have shown what barriers are influenced by age, what barriers exist only for senior and younger adults. The study theoretically contributes to deepening the Information Systems (IS) community's understanding of the barriers to intergenerational innovation that need to be considered when developing systems for global innovation
The goal of this empirical study is to answer whether predictions about stock price movements can be made with the use of machine learning in the energy sector and what influence contributions from social media have on its development. To answer the research
question, the social media platforms Twitter and Reddit, in terms of the suitability of the information, were studied and evaluated. Then, the sentiments of the posts from social media were collected and used in machine learning models. The models include the Gradient Boosted Regression Tree, Multilayer Perceptron, and Long Short-Term
i Memory, which predict a subsequent day's closing stock price. The study showed that deviations from predictions of stock price movements of 1.05 % are possible and further sentiment values do not show significant positive effect on reducing the error value. The
result shows that the collected sentiments from the social media platform Twitter have no positive effect on the stock price movements within the energy industry.

Vergleich von Logistischer Regression und Deep Learning bei der Vorhersage von Schlaganfällen
(2022)
Die Bachelorarbeit befasst sich mit dem Vergleich von Logistischer
Regression und Deep Learning bei der Vorhersage von Schlaganfällen
hinsichtlich der Frage, ob in einer binären Klassifikationsaufgabe die
komplexe und aufwändige Methode des Deep Learnings sich bei
Anwendung auf kleine tabellarische Datensätze bewährt oder ob
Logistische Regression als Basismodell des Maschinellen Lernens
effizienter ist. Methodisch werden folgende Schritte ausgeführt:
Beschreibung beider Modelle, Durchführung der Datenvorbereitung unter
Verwendung des „Stroke Prediction Dataset“ von Kaggle, Implementierung
beider Methoden mit dem gleichen angepassten Datensatz. Der
abschließende Vergleich benennt als Fazit die Unterschiede in den
Ergebnissen und Voraussetzungen für den sinnvollen Einsatz beider
Methoden. Eine Schlussfolgerung angesichts der geringen
Ergebnisunterschiede hinsichtlich der Prognosegenauigkeit der
Schlaganfallrisikos dürfte sein, dass Deep Learning, um ökonomisch
sinnvoll bei tabellarischen in kleineren Datensätzen eingesetzt zu werden, aktuell noch nicht genügend bessere Ergebnisse vorweist.
Background:
Influential actors detection in social media such as twitter or Facebook can play a major role in gathering opinions on particular topics, improving the market
-
ing efficiency, predicting the trends, etc.
Proposed methods:
This work aims to extend our formally defined
T
measure to
present a new measure aiming to recognize the actor’s influence by the strength of
attracting new important actors into a networked community. Therefore, we propose a
model of the actor’s influence based on the attractiveness of the actor in relation to the
number of other attractors with whom he/she has established connections over time.
Results and conclusions:
Using an empirically collected social network for the
underlying graph, we have applied the above-mentioned measure of influence in
order to determine optimal seeds in a simulation of influence maximization. We study
our extended measure in the context of information diffusion because this measure is
based on a model of actors who attract others to be active members in a community.
This corresponds to the idea of the IC simulation model which is used to identify the
most important spreaders in a set of actors.

Die Digitalisierung des deutschen Gesundheitswesens ist im direkten Vergleich zu anderen Branchen und Gesundheitswesen deutlich im Rückstand. Ursachen für diesen Rückstand sollten identifiziert werden, um aus den gefundenen Faktoren Handlungsempfehlungen zu entwickeln, die dabei helfen sollen künftige Digitalisierungsprojekte effizienter zu gestalten. Zur Identifizierung wurde zunächst eine unstrukturierte Literaturrecherche durchgeführt, gefolgt von Experteninterviews, die den eigentlichen Kern der Arbeit darstellen. Die ausgewählten Probanden stellen Beteiligten des Projektes elektronische Arbeitsunfähigkeitsbescheinigung dar, dessen Projektverlauf evaluiert wurde, um aus den Herausforderungen zu lernen.
The virtual classroom continues to grow, but it is becoming more and more the norm, and it is fundamentally different from the vocational students at the Indonesian university. With the promised benefits of the virtual classroom, many challenges and difficulties come in the implementation. Although there are already successful design principles for virtual classrooms that support organizations in overcoming the challenges, the approach to implementing the design principles of virtual classroom at the vocational higher education in Indonesia is still lacking. In this study, we aim to answer the research gap and used the design sciences research by interviewing the lecturers to design the solutions. The proposed design approaches were implemented in a course and evaluated with students from two different groups. Overall, the evaluation of the proposed approaches shows1 significant results as an indicator of the benefits of the implementation of a virtual classroom for vocational students in Indonesia.
Digital transformation is a process of digitizing the working and living environment in which people are at the center of digitization. In this paper, we present a personas-based guideline for system developers on how the humanization of digital transformation integrates into the design process. The proposed guideline uses the positive personas from the beginning as a basis for the transformation of the working environment into the digital form. We used the literature research as a preliminary study for the process of wellbeing-driven digital transformation design, consisting of questions for structuring the required information in the positive personas as well as a potential method that could be integrated into the wellbeing-based design process.
