Since the early 1950s, the collection and analysis of structured data were the focus of interest, followed by unstructured data since the early 1990s. The third wave of BI \& A comprises unstructured and sensor data of mobile devices. The article at hand aims at drawing a comprehensive overview of the status quo in relevant BI \& A research of the current decade, focusing on the third wave of BI \& A. By this means, the paper's contribution is fourfold. First, a systematically developed taxonomy for BI \& A 3.0 research, containing seven dimensions and 40 characteristics, is presented. Second, the results of a structured literature review containing 75 full research papers are analyzed by applying the developed taxonomy. The analysis provides an overview on the status quo of BI \& A 3.0. Third, the results foster discussions on the predicted and observed developments in BI \& A research of the past decade.

As the Human Development Index provides insight into a country's cultural and socio-economic characteristics and development in addition to economic indicators, it allows a comparison of the two countries. The hypothesis presented and discussed in this paper was researched before. A qualitative research approach was used in the author's master's thesis "The Human Development Index (HDI) as a Reflection of Resource Abundance (using Nigeria and Norway as a case study)" in 2018. The management of scarce resources is an important aspect in the development of modern countries and those on the threshold of becoming industrialised nations. The effects of a mistaken resource management are not only of a purely economic nature but also of a social and socio-economic nature. In order to present a partial aspect of these dependencies and influences this paper uses a quantitative analysis to examine the interdependence and impact of resource rents on socio-economic development from 2002 to 2017.

These are endeavours in which social, environmental, and financial aspects must be weighed against each other. They can prove difficult to handle and, in some cases, almost unrealistic. Concepts such as green controlling, IT, and manufacturing look promising and are constantly evolving. This paper aims to achieve a better understanding of the field of corporate sustainability (CS). It will evaluate the hypothesis by which Corporate Sustainability thrives, via being efficient, increasing the performance, and raising the value of the input of the enterprises to the resources used. In fact, Corporate Sustainability on the surface could seem to contradict the idea, which supports the understanding that it encourages the reduction of the heavy reliance on the use of natural resources, the overall environmental impact, and above all, their protection. To understand how the contradictory notion of CS came about, in this part of the paper, the emphasis is placed on providing useful insight to this regard. The first part of this paper summarizes various definitions, organizational theories, and measures used for CS and its derivatives like green controlling, IT, and manufacturing. Second, a case study is given that combines the aforementioned sustainability models.

First, a systematic literature review is carried out to outline (current) scientific models and theories. Research Question 1 follows with a mathematical introduction of the rebound effect, which shows the interdependence of consumer behaviour, technological progress, and interwoven effects for both. Thereupon, the research field is analysed for gaps and limitations by a systematic literature review. To ensure quantitative and qualitative results, a review protocol is used that integrates two different stages and covers all relevant publications released between 2000 and 2019. Accordingly, 392 publications were identified that deal with the rebound effect. These papers were reviewed to obtain relevant information on the two research questions. The literature review shows that research on the rebound effect is not yet comprehensive and focuses mainly on the effect itself rather than solutions to avoid it. Research Question 2 finds that the main gap, and thus the limitations, is that not much research has been published on the actual avoidance of the rebound effect yet. This is a major limitation for practical application by decision-makers and politicians. Therefore, a theoretical analysis was carried out to identify potential theories and ideas to avoid the rebound effect.

While research on expert-novice communication mainly focused on experts' changes in explicit, verbal communication behavior, it is as yet unclear whether and how exactly experts adjust their nonverbal behavior. This study first investigated whether and how experts change their eye movements and mouse clicks (that are displayed in EMMEs) when they perform a task naturally versus teach a task didactically. Programming experts and novices initially debugged short computer codes in a natural manner. We first characterized experts' natural problem-solving behavior by contrasting it with that of novices. Then, we explored the changes in experts' behavior when being subsequently instructed to model their task solution didactically. Experts became more similar to novices on measures associated with experts' automatized processes (i.e., shorter fixation durations, fewer transitions between code and output per click on the run button when behaving didactically). This adaptation might make it easier for novices to follow or imitate the expert behavior. In contrast, experts became less similar to novices for measures associated with more strategic behavior (i.e., code reading linearity, clicks on run button) when behaving didactically.}, language = {en} } @incollection{Eggert2019, author = {Eggert, Mathias}, title = {Big Data Research - How to Structure the Changes of the Past Decade?}, series = {The Art of Structuring}, booktitle = {The Art of Structuring}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Cham}, isbn = {978-3-030-06234-7}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-06234-7_26}, pages = {271 -- 281}, year = {2019}, abstract = {In the past decade, many IS researchers focused on researching the phenomenon of Big Data.

In addition, block ownership is negatively related to firms' cost of equity when the blockholders are other firms, managers or founding-family members.

My findings demonstrate that a uniform set of governance attributes is unlikely to satisfy suppliers of debt and equity capital equally.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FredebeulKreinSteingroever2013, author = {Fredebeul-Krein, Markus and Steingr{\"o}ver, Markus}, title = {Enhancing broadband development and internet usages for improving networks and services in APEC member economies: Bridging the digital divide}, series = {The 19th ITS Biennial Conference 2012 "Moving Forward with Future Technologies: Opening a Platform for All" 18 - 21 November 2012, Thailand}, booktitle = {The 19th ITS Biennial Conference 2012 "Moving Forward with Future Technologies: Opening a Platform for All" 18 - 21 November 2012, Thailand}, publisher = {ITS}, address = {Bangkok}, pages = {13 S.}, year = {2013}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{HerzwurmPietsch2013, author = {Herzwurm, Georg and Pietsch, Wolfram}, title = {Introduction of RePriCo'13}, series = {19th International Working Conference on Requirements Engineering: Foundation for Software Quality (REFSQ 2013) : proceedings of the REFSQ 2013 Workshops CreaRE, IWSPM, and RePriCo, the REFSQ 2013 Empirical Track (Empirical Live Experiment and Empirical Research Fair), the REFSQ 2013 Doctoral Symposium, and the REFSQ 2013 Poster Session.

A unique data set from a large German discount broker gives us the opportunity to analyze the trading behavior of 1,454 investors, making 89,958 transactions in 6,724 warrants on 397 underlyings. In different logit regression, we make use of the facts that investors can speculate on rising and falling prices of the underlying with call and put warrants and that we also have information about the stock portfolios of the investors. We report several facts about the trading behavior of individual investors in warrants that are consistent with the literature on the behavior of individual investors in the stock market. The warrant investors buy calls and sell puts if the price of the underlying has decreased over the past trading days and they sell calls and buy puts if the price of the underlying has increased. That means, the investors follow negative feedback trading strategies in all four trading categories observed. In addition, we find strong evidence for the disposition effect for call as well as put warrants, which is reversed in December. The trading behavior is also influenced if the underlying reaches some exceptionally prices, e.g. highs, lows or the strike price. We show that hedging, as one natural candidate to buy puts, does not play an important role in the market for bank-issued warrants.}, language = {en} } @book{Gell2012, author = {Gell, Sebastian}, title = {Determinants of earnings forecast error, earnings forecast revision and earnings forecast accuracy}, publisher = {Springer Gabler}, address = {Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-8349-3936-4}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-8349-3937-1}, pages = {XXIV, 125 Seiten}, year = {2012}, abstract = {​Earnings forecasts are ubiquitous in today's financial markets.
