A multi-layer approach to the study of inter-organizational wireless infrastructure

Published: 13 August 2006 Publication History

Abstract

The supply side of the pervasive commerce market will rely on a mix of wireless technologies that include public cellular and wireless networks as well as the wireless networks owned and operated by individuals and organizations. The integration of these diverse networks constitutes a significant milestone in the evolution of toward pervasive commerce. This research reports on results from a trial involving public cellular/private wireless network integration. Based on insights derived from the trial we propose a multi-layer approach to the study of inter-organizational systems, which facilitates the study of integrated wireless infrastructures in a way that incorporates the findings of the extant inter-organizational systems (IOS) literature from the management information systems (MIS) field.
