7、this document as a template is highly recommended as it gives the best input for the final publications. body of the paper: the whole paper should be written in “times new roman” font. except the title of the paper that is in 14-font size and authors names with their affiliations in 11-font size, th

8、e whole paper should be written in 10 fonts. do not use multiple columns. the line spacing should be single line. every paper should be less than or equal to 6 pages. set the page to a4 with margins of 2.54cm all around. do not use headers and footers, do not use end notes and do not put page number

9、s. microsoft word file is strongly preferred. 2. why a new theory ofinformation systemperformance? 10pt, capitalized, boldheadings are numbered and capitalized. all major headings are centered in bold in 10 fonts. do not put a period after the text of the heading. there should be no more than three

10、levels of heading. in the infancy of software development, designers held functionality (what the system does to the world) as the primary goal of software development. this is because at that time, software was just a tool, as say a hammer is a tool. as information systems developed however, they n

11、ot only became more complex, but also less passive and more active systems in their own right. is today works with the user not just for the user, and now enables a virtual online society that could span the globe. hence functionality has become an insufficient indicator of information system perfor

12、mance. the main battle against functionality as the prime directive of system designers was carried out by the proponents of usability, human-factors and human-computer interaction, supported by theoretical frameworks such as the technology acceptance model (tam). these views presented ease of use a

13、s equal to usefulness in determining user acceptance of a system 1, e.g. if a web site performs well functionally, but users dont like it and click on to other sites, then it is a failure. functional failure and usability failure it was noted have the same effect the system does not run! 3. what is

14、a systems approach? 10pt, capitalized, boldnearly forty years ago bertalanffy noted that certain mathematical formulas repeated across many disciplines like chemistry, physics and biology 2, which used the same formulae to describe completely different things. hence was borne the idea of studying a

15、“system” without referencing what type of system it was. computer systems seem systems in a general sense 3, so a hardware computer system of chips and circuits is also a software system of information exchanges, and today also the human-computer combination 4, e.g. a plane is mechanical, its comput

16、er controls are informational, but the plane plus pilot is also a system a human-computer system. human-computer interaction (hci) sees computers as more than just technology (hardware and software). table 1 summarizes the four computer system levels, matching the idea of an information system (is)

17、as hardware, software, people, and business processes5. the levels are different views of the same system not different systems, and match disciplines of engineering, computing, psychology and sociology, respectively. figures and tables should be placed as close as possible to where they are cited.

18、captions should be times new roman 9-point, bold. figures and tables should be numbered separately and consecutively. avoid color diagrams. figures captions should be flush center below the figures, and table captions should be in center above the table body. initially capitalize only the first word

21、ein the web of system performance (figure1):· web area represents system performance in general, so a bigger the area means a greater system performance potential.· web shape represents the goal criterion weights, which vary with the environment, e.g. a threat environment may mean security

24、ers theory to is. over forty years ago alexander noted the “tension” problems of physical world system design 5. since then, his architectural pattern theory has been applied to information systems (is) and object orientated (oo) design. design tensions arise when physical systems composed of parts

25、have multiple contextual demands. for example, in a simple machine such as a vacuum cleaner, each part, like the engine, can be designed for its specific function by using the best materials. specialized materials allow a powerful engine, with more suction, but this may also create more noise, heat

26、and weight, making the vacuum harder to use. part specialization may also mean more complex joints that fail easier, reducing reliability. finally, customizing parts can increase manufacturing material diversity, raising costs.all equations should be placed on separate lines and numbered consecutive

27、ly, with the equation numbers placed within parentheses and aligned against the right margin as shown in equation (1).min c = (1)be sure that the symbols in your equation have been defined before the equation appear or immediately following. 5.2 is wosp useful for system evaluation as well as system

28、 design? 10pt, no capitalized, boldyes, it can be used as a process-oriented design framework for system developers, or a product-oriented evaluation framework for system users/buyers. the common concept of system performance connects the two fields: generally designers want to produce high performa

29、nce systems, and likewise users want to buy them.5.2.1 reason adesign then, is the art of synthesizing “forms” to reconcile contradictory contextual demands, e.g. vacuums that are both lightweight and powerful. “patterns” are generic solutions to design conflicts that repeat: “each pattern describes

30、 a problem which occurs over and over again in our environment, and then describes the core of the solution to that problem.” 6. if problems repeat, it makes sense to re-use successful solutions. the logic applies as well to is design as it does to physical design.6. conclusions10pt, capitalized, bo
