Semantic technologies are about to play a crucial role in this integrative process. However, cross-company data exchange requires mechanisms to enable fine-grained access control definition and enforcement, preventing unauthorized leakage of confidential data across company borders. Currently available semantic repositories are not sufficiently equipped to satisfy this important requirement. This paper presents an infrastructure for controlled sharing of semantic data between cooperating business partners. First, we motivate the need for access control in semantic data federations by a case study in the industrial service sector. Furthermore, we present an architecture for controlling access to semantic repositories that is based on our newly developed SemForce security service. Finally, we show the practical feasibility of this architecture by an implementation and several performance experiments.}, language = {en} } @article{WinklerGoebelBidaultetal.2012, author = {Winkler, Till J. and Goebel, Christoph and Bidault, Francis and G{\"u}nther, Oliver}, title = {Information technology and business practieses in Germany}, series = {The UCLA Anderson Business and Information Technologies (BIT) Project}, journal = {The UCLA Anderson Business and Information Technologies (BIT) Project}, publisher = {world scientific}, address = {Singapore}, doi = {10.1142/9789814390880_0005}, pages = {81 -- 114}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @article{GuentherBrechtEckhardtetal.2012, author = {G{\"u}nther, Oliver and Brecht, Franziska and Eckhardt, Andreas and Berger, Christian}, title = {Corporate career presences on social network sites: an analysis of hedonic and utilitarian value}, series = {CHI '12 Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems}, journal = {CHI '12 Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems}, publisher = {ACM}, address = {Texas}, isbn = {978-1-4503-1015-4}, doi = {10.1145/2207676.2208408}, pages = {2441 -- 2450}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Due to the shortage of skilled workforce and the increasing usage of social network sites, companies increasingly apply social network sites to attract potential applicants. This paper explores how corporate career presences on network sites should be realized in order to attract potential applicants. Therefore, we tested the impact of seven individual characteristics (namely Appointments, Daily Working Routine, Jobs, Corporate News, Entertainment, Media Format, and Features) of these corporate career presences that we extracted by a comprehensive pre-study on users' perceived hedonic and utilitarian value of these presences on social network sites. Based on an online survey with 470 participants, the results reveal a highly significant impact of five characteristics that corporate career presences provide both a hedonic as well as a utilitarian value to the user}, language = {en} } @article{KrasnovaVeltriGuenther2012, author = {Krasnova, Hanna and Veltri, Natasha F. and G{\"u}nther, Oliver}, title = {Self-disclosure and privacy calculus on social networking sites the role of culture intercultural dynamics of privacy calculus}, series = {Business \& information systems engineering : the international journal of Wirtschaftsinformatik}, volume = {4}, journal = {Business \& information systems engineering : the international journal of Wirtschaftsinformatik}, number = {3}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Heidelberg}, issn = {1867-0202}, doi = {10.1007/s12599-012-0216-6}, pages = {127 -- 135}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Social Network Sites (SNSs) rely exclusively on user-generated content to offer engaging and rewarding experience to its members. As a result, stimulating user communication and self-disclosure is vital for the sustainability of SNSs. However, considering that the SNS users are increasingly culturally diverse, motivating this audience to self-disclose requires understanding of their cultural intricacies. Yet existing research offers only limited insights into the role of culture behind the motivation of SNS users to self-disclose. Building on the privacy calculus framework, this study explores the role of two cultural dimensions - individualism and uncertainty avoidance - in self-disclosure decisions of SNS users. Survey responses of US and German Facebook members are used as the basis for our analysis. Structural equation modeling and multi-group analysis results reveal the distinct role of culture in the cognitive patterns of SNS users. The authors find that trusting beliefs play a key role in the self-disclosure decisions of users from individualistic cultures. At the same time, uncertainty avoidance determines the impact of privacy concerns. This paper contributes to the theory by rejecting the universal nature of privacy calculus processes. The findings provide for an array of managerial implications for SNS providers as they strive to encourage content creation and sharing by their heterogeneous members.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{GuentherWinkler2012, author = {G{\"u}nther, Oliver and Winkler, Till J.}, title = {Explaining the governance of software as a service applications}, series = {Multikonferenz Wirtschaftsinformatik 2012 - Tagungsband der MKWI 2012}, booktitle = {Multikonferenz Wirtschaftsinformatik 2012 - Tagungsband der MKWI 2012}, publisher = {Gito}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-942183-63-5}, pages = {599 -- 612}, year = {2012}, abstract = {Defining the allocation of decision rights for enterprise applications is a crucial issue in IT governance and organization design. Today, emerging delivery models such as Software as a Service (SaaS) defy the notion of the internal IT department as the focal point of centralized governance. Recognizing the importance of this issue, we find that the phenomenon of 'SaaS governance' itself is not yet well understood. Based on two cases of SaaS adoption, we take a process-theoretic approach to investigate the complex interaction between factors that influence in the allocation of SaaS authority. The results suggest that some factors, such as the locus of initiative and the decision for SaaS, interact with absorptive capacities and determine the later mode of application governance at a very early stage. Thus, the initiative for introducing SaaS emerges as an important intermediate variable between the overall IT governance mode and the resulting SaaS governance outcome.}, language = {en} } @article{Guenther2012, author = {G{\"u}nther, Oliver}, title = {More politics in the GI - More GI in politics}, series = {Informatik-Spektrum}, volume = {35}, journal = {Informatik-Spektrum}, number = {6}, doi = {10.1007/s00287-012-0657-9}, pages = {397 -- 398}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchoendienstKulzerGuenther2012, author = {Sch{\"o}ndienst, Valentin and Kulzer, Florian and G{\"u}nther, Oliver}, title = {Like versus dislike}, series = {International Conference on Information Systems : (ICIS 2012)}, booktitle = {International Conference on Information Systems : (ICIS 2012)}, publisher = {Curran}, address = {Red Hook}, pages = {439 -- 454}, year = {2012}, abstract = {As Facebook's Like-button has become ubiquitous, it is the purpose of this research to investigate (1) whether Likes serve as a signal of a product's or service's quality and (2) how the introduction of a Dislike-button would alter perceptions. Following a qualitative study, we conducted an experiment in which 653 participants were presented with website screenshots featuring varying levels of Likes and Dislikes. The results indicate that the theoretical framing of Likes as a Signal is valid and that people do perceive the quality of products and services as superior when they are associated with more Likes. Signaling also explains the counter-intuitive finding that Dislikes can have a positive effect on people's quality perceptions.
