Miroslaw J. Skibniewski, S. Ghosh
Abstract:

Technology acceptance is a challenge that can be addressed properly if decision makers of technology acceptance are aware of all issues that need to be addressed. Borrowing theory of basic ecology, researchers propose an information technology (IT) ecosystem (IECOS) and identified in the entirety all the elements present at IECOS. The study focuses on identified elements of IECOS borrowing theory of technology acceptance model (TAM). A simplified version of technology selection is presented to guide prospective enablers to select a new enterprise wide application.

Keywords: Ecology, technology acceptance model, compatibility, usefulness
