Journal Title：Information Technology & Management

Changes in the hardware, software and telecommunication technologies play a major role in the way our society is evolving. During the last decade, the rate of change in information technology has increased. Indeed it is clear that we are now entering an era where explosive change in telecommunication technology combined with ever increasing computing power will lead to profound changes in information systems that support our organizations. These changes will affect the way our organizations function, will lead to new business opportunities and will create a need for new non-profit organizations. Governments and international organizations do and will have to scramble to create policies and laws for control of public goods and services such as airwaves and public networks. Educational institutions will continue to change the content of educational materials they deliver to include new knowledge and skills. In addition these institutions will change the delivery mechanisms for disseminating these materials. By definition, information technology is very wide. There are a number of journals that address different technologies such as databases, knowledge bases, multimedia, group-ware, telecommunications, etc. This current trend is understandable because these technologies are indeed complex and often have a multitude of technical issues requiring in-depth study. On the other hand, business solutions almost always require integration of a number of these technologies. Therefore it is important to have a journal where the readers will be exposed not only to different technologies but also to their impact on information system design, functionality, operations and management. It should be emphasized that information systems include not only machines but also humans; therefore, the journal will be an outlet for studies dealing with man/machine interface, human factors and organizational issues. Furthermore, managerial issues arising from and dealing with managem ent of information technology and systems including strategic issues are included in the domain of coverage. The topics of coverage will include but will not be limited to the following list: Managing with Information Technology;Management of Information Technology and Systems;Introduction and Diffusion of IT;Strategic Impact of IT;Economics of IS and IT;New Information Technologies and Their Impact on Organizations;Human Factors in Information Systems;Man/Machine Interface, GUI;IS and Organizational Research Issues;Graphical Problem Solving;Multimedia Applications;Knowledge Acquisition and Representation;Knowledge Bases;Data Modeling;Database Management Systems;Data Mining;Model Management Systems;Systems Analysis, Design and Development; Case Technologies;Object Oriented Design Methodologies;System Design Methodologies;System Development Environments;Performance Modeling and Analysis; Software Engineering;Artificial Intelligence Applications to Organizational/Business Problems;Expert Systems;Decision Support Systems;Machine Learning;Neural Network Applications;Meta-Heuristics and Business Problem Solving;Distributed Computer Systems, Legacy Systems, Client - Server Computing;End User Computing;Information Systems for Virtual Organizations;IS and IT for Business Process Re-engineering;IS for Total Quality Control;IS for Supporting Team Work;Negotiation Support Systems;Group Decision Support Systems;EDI;Internet/WWW Applications;Telecommunication Networks;IT and International Information Systems;Security in Networks and Systems;Public Policy Issues dealing with Telecommunica tion;Networks and Airways;IS and IT Training;GIS;IS and IT Applications, e.g., in logistics, marketing, accounting, finance and operations.Officially cited as: Inf Technol Manag

硬件、軟件和電信技術的變化在我們社會的發展中扮演著重要的角色。在過去十年中，信息技術的變化速度加快。事實上，很明顯，我們現在正進入一個時代，電信技術的爆炸性變化與不斷增長的計算能力相結合，將導致支持我們組織的信息系統發生深刻變化。這些變化將影響我們組織的運作方式，帶來新的商業機會，并產生對新非營利組織的需求。政府和國際組織正在并將不得不爭先恐后地制定政策和法律來控制公共產品和服務，例如無線電波和公共網絡。教育機構將繼續改變他們提供的教育材料的內容，以包括新知識和技能。此外，這些機構將改變傳播這些材料的傳遞機制。從定義上講，信息技術的范圍非常廣泛。有許多期刊涉及不同的技術，例如數據庫、知識庫、多媒體、群件、電信等。這種當前的趨勢是可以理解的，因為這些技術確實很復雜，而且往往有大量需要深入研究的技術問題。另一方面，商業解決方案幾乎總是需要集成多種技術。因此，重要的是要有一本期刊，讓讀者不僅接觸不同的技術，而且了解它們對信息系統設計、功能、操作和管理的影響。應該強調的是，信息系統不僅包括機器，還包括人類；因此，該期刊將成為研究人機界面、人為因素和組織問題的研究渠道。

此外，由信息技術和系統管理引起的管理問題，包括戰略問題，也包括在覆蓋范圍內。討論的主題包括但不限于以下列表：信息技術管理；信息技術和系統管理；信息技術的引入和傳播；信息技術的戰略影響；信息系統和信息技術的經濟學；新信息技術及其對組織的影響；信息系統中的人為因素；人機界面，GUI；信息系統和組織研究問題；圖形化問題求解；多媒體應用；知識獲取和表示；知識庫；數據建模；數據庫管理系統；數據挖掘；模型管理系統；系統分析、設計和開發；案例技術；面向對象的設計方法；系統設計方法；系統開發環境；性能建模和分析；軟件工程；人工智能應用于組織/商業問題；專家系統；決策支持系統；機器學習；神經網絡應用；元啟發式和業務問題解決；分布式計算機系統、遺留系統、客戶端 - 服務器計算；最終用戶計算；虛擬組織的信息系統；業務流程再造的 IS 和 IT；全面質量控制的 IS；支持團隊合作的 IS；談判支持系統；群體決策支持系統；EDI；互聯網/WWW 應用；電信網絡；IT 和國際信息系統；網絡和系統安全；與電信有關的公共政策問題；網絡和航線；IS 和 IT 培訓；GIS；IS 和 IT 應用，例如物流、營銷、會計、財務和運營。正式引用為：Inf Technol Manag
