ABSTRACT Information Technology for Development (ITD) is the application and development of Information Technology infrastructures to bring about economic, social and human development in emerging and developed economies. Contributions of research in ITD over twenty years have been to the management of economies through the implementation of IT infrastructures to stimulate national development. Examples of such research include the use of indicators such as gross domestic product and human development indices to assess the effect of IT technologies and infrastructures on national development. Such research provides insight for policy makers seeking to increase business investment in their regions. It also provides guidelines for businesses seeking to implement and use IT infrastructures to support their sourcing strategies.

The integration of EHR (Electronic Health Records) in IT infrastructures supporting organizations enable improved access to and recording of patient data, enhanced ability to make better and more-timely decisions, and improved quality and reduced errors. Despite these benefits, there are mixed results as to the use of EHR. The literature suggests that the reasons for the limited use relate to policy, financial and usability considerations, but it does not provide an understanding of reasons for physicians' limited interaction and adaptation of EHR. Following an analysis of qualitative data, collected in a case study at a hospital using interviews, this research explains how physicians interact with EHR. The key contribution of this research is explaining how physicians interact with EHR in terms of concepts that are grounded in the real world experiences of physicians.

A paradox appears to thwart traditional knowledge sharing efforts in organizations: the greater the benefit of a piece of knowledge to an organization the less likely that it will be shared. This paper suggests that in order to mobilize knowledge where there is demand for it, it has to be activated. This paper considers the knowledge identity of the person whose knowledge is to be activated and uses these identities to analyze a case study in which highly distributed knowledge is activated. The analysis reveals activation effects needed to mobilize each of the knowledge identities.
