The rapid advancement of information and communication technology (ICT) has made it possible to develop information systems which provide flexible computing ability for business organisations. Due to the improvement of communication infrastructure and the spread of the Internet, activities of business organisations supported by ICT-based information systems have exerted considerable influence on a wide range of stakeholders.
