More and more organizations are being run dependent on information systems. This makes information systems a pivotal component of our lives. Because of globalization and harsh competition, strategic cost management has become essential to keep or gain competitive advantage. These two trends make the investigation of Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for information systems crucial. To this end, a systematic mapping study (SMS) is presented to identify the use of TCO in information systems context. A summary of the findings after analyzing and synthesizing 75 relevant publications are as follows: (1) an increased interest in TCO for information systems is observed over the years; (2) 76% of the selected publications lack validation and evaluation; (3) the main motivation behind the 72% of the publications is reduction of TCO; (4) essential means of reducing TCO are cloud computing, SaaS model, and multi-tenancy; (5) TCO calculations are also generally made to compare cloud-based infrastructures with in-house infrastructures and SaaS model with on-premise software; (6) TCO is an important criterion in making investment decisions for information systems such as ERP, CRM.

Conventional grid-enabled portal designs have been primarily based on the usual traditional requirements specifications such as security requirements, grid resource requirements, job management requirements and the likes. However, the pay-as-you-use service provisioning model of utility computing platforms need to consider and satisfy certain salient requirements considered relevant in a bid to achieve better conceptual designs of Service-based Electronic Commerce On-Demand (SECOnD) that are well-usable for grid utility platforms such as the Grid-based Utility Infrastructure for Small, Micro, and Medium Enterprises (SMME) Enabling Technology (GUISET). The work aspect profiled in paper entails the conceptual design and usability evaluation of a SECOnD portal which serves as the uniform channel through which targeted under-resourced SMMEs can inexpensively access and use e-Commerce technologies and tools without owning them. The outcome of the evaluation experiment revealed that the service portal designed largely achieve the usability expectations of it users.
