“…Benbasat and Zmud [9] have suggested that IS research needs to be relevant to practice, so design sciences [5,6] should be part of IS research. Their call resonated in a recent paper by Hevner et al, who argued that IS behavioral science "focuses on developing and justifying theories that explain and predict phenomena" related to IT applications, whereas design science "focuses on creating and evaluating innovative IT artifacts that enable organiDownloaded by [University of Otago] at 03:53 23 July 2015 zations to address important information-related tasks" [26, p. 98].…”

“…The proposed dynamic business model elements are a synthesis of the authors formulae (3), providing practical contribution for business users. It's scientific roots originate in so-called design science (Owen 1997) and its recent upsurge in Information Systems research (March, Smith 1995;Au 2001;Ball 2001;Hevner et al 2004). Fig.…”

The aim of this paper is to indicate the relations between company’s value added (VA) and intangible assets. Authors declare that Intellectual capital (IC) is one of the most relevant intangibles for a company, and the concept with measurement, and the relation with value creation is necessary for modern markets. Since relationship between IC elements and VA are complicated, this paper is aimed to create a usable dynamic model for building company’s value added through intellectual capital. The model is incorporating that outputs from IC elements are not homogeneously received and made some contributions to dynamic nature of IC relation and VA. Variables that will help companies to evaluate contribution of each element of IC are added to the model. This paper emphasizes the importance of a company’s IC and the positive interaction between them in generating profits for company.

“…Comparable work has been promoted in IS as "design science" through the work of March and Smith (1995), who developed a framework to demonstrate the relationship, activities, and outputs of design and natural science research in information technology. The design science ideas of March and Smith have enjoyed recent currency with a number of authors using or building on their works (Au, 2001;Ball, 2001;Hevner and March, 2003;Hevner et al, 2004).…”

Design work and design knowledge in Information Systems (IS) is important for both research and practice. Yet there has been comparatively little critical attention paid to the problem of specifying design theory so that it can be communicated, justified, and developed cumulatively. In this essay we focus on the structural components or anatomy of design theories in IS as a special class of theory. In doing so, we aim to extend the work of Walls, Widemeyer and El Sawy (1992) on the specification of information systems design theories (ISDT), drawing on other streams of thought on design research and theory to provide a basis for a more systematic and useable formulation of these theories. We identify eight separate components of design theories: (1) purpose and scope, (2) constructs, (3) principles of form and function, (4) artifact mutability, (5) testable propositions, (6) justificatory knowledge (kernel theories), (7) principles of implementation, and (8) an expository instantiation. This specification includes components missing in the Walls et al. adaptation of Dubin (1978) and Simon (1969) and also addresses explicitly problems associated with the role of instantiations and the specification of design theories for methodologies and interventions as well as for products and applications. The essay is significant as the unambiguous establishment of design knowledge as theory gives a sounder base for arguments for the rigor and legitimacy of IS as an applied discipline and for its continuing progress. A craft can proceed with the copying of one example of a design artifact by one artisan after another. A discipline cannot.Note: Adapted from Iversen et al. (2004). This article contains two design theories, with the second being a more general approach for tailoring risk management to specific contexts. This second theory is omitted in the interests of simplicity.
