Dr. Mehruz Kamal (Department of Computing Sciences) presented and published her latest research at the 25th Southern Association for Information Systems conference, a leading regional Information Systems conference on March 24, 2023.

Dr. Kamal’s research paper is titled, “Cloud Services for Microenterprise Sustainability – Multi case Analysis.

Abstract

In this study, the opportunity offered by cloud services within microenterprises is investigated. Since the ability of micro-enterprises to adopt technology depends upon the unique conditions in which they find themselves, the goal of this study is to investigate and assess such adoption through a very systematic and contextualized approach. An action research methodology was used to investigate three micro-enterprises in Western New York during a five-month timespan. The contribution of this study is in applying a modified adaptation of the capabilities framework to understand the impact from adopting and using cloud services within micro-enterprises.
