Formulate a topic in Joint Research Paper - some advice

For students studying Research in IT, your joint research paper should employ Socio-technical Systems thinking to address a specific concern arising from Internet impacts for a specific organization (business or non-business). For examples,

a. how the Internet commerce affects office support for a specific Audit firm
b. how the Internet applications affects the customer service practice of a specific bank
c. how the Internet application affects the staffing practices for a specific professional translation service company in Hong Kong


Try to focus on a real-life company for your assignment work. Try to examine one specific organization in your Joint Research Paper work.

You also need to read the assignment requirements and relevant literature yourself. For the coming workshop session, I will make use of the following article for illustration on how to analyze office automation (with Internet as the IT enabler) using socio-technical systems approach:
