The intention of the case study is to show a less-than-successful attempt at the introduction and use of information technology in a small business. Contrary to what is reported in the general and computer press, the application and understanding of technology is lacking in many small businesses that could benefit greatly from its use.

In this paper, the authors present the results of a qualitative case-study seeking to characterize data discovery needs and barriers of principal investigators and research support staff in clinical translational science. Several implications for designing and implementing translational research systems have emerged through the authors’ analysis. The results also illustrate the benefits of forming early partnerships with scientists to better understand their workflow processes and end-user computing practices in accessing data for research. The authors use this user-centered, iterative development approach to guide the implementation and extension of i2b2, a system they have adapted to support cross-institutional aggregate anonymized clinical data querying. With ongoing evaluation, the goal is to maximize the utility and extension of this system and develop an interface that appropriately fits the swiftly evolving needs of clinical translational scientists.

The development of information technology that continues to grow in all aspects of life which makes human work more efficient and effective. The current COVID-19 pandemic is one of the conditions in which people's activities are hindered and limited in their daily activities. The application of Information Technology is a solution that can be applied for the sustainability of community activities in the midst of this pandemic, one of which is the education sector. Edmodo's E-Learning system is one of the most widely used e-learning systems for the teaching and learning process. The application of e-learning certainly changes the way students learn from offline to online. EUCS (end-user computing satisfaction) is one of the methods used to analyze user satisfaction of an information system, where this method has 5 variables, namely content, accuracy, format, ease of use, and timeliness. The case study of Senior High School 1 Sampang will be the object of this research, where the EUCS method is used to measure the satisfaction of end users of the Edmodo E-Learning system. Data was collected by distributing questionnaires to active students at Senior High School 1 Sampang by obtaining a sample of 80 respondents. From the results of the research conducted, it was found that the EUCS method can be applied to the Edmodo E-Learning system at Senior High School 1 Sampang because the data obtained from the respondents was declared valid and reliable so that it can be relied upon in measuring end user satisfaction with the Edmodo E-learning system, while the factors - the factors of the EUCS method that affect the satisfaction of the end user of the Edmodo E-Learning system at Srnior High School 1 Sampang are the content and accuracy factors.

Until recent years, the end user computing ergonomic focus has primarily been on stationary computer use. A new trend for the end user is mobile computing. An increasing number of end users are working outside of the traditional office. Mobile computing devices allow for these workers to perform job functions while in the field, at home, or while traveling. The organizational and end user benefits abound for the use of such enabling technology. However, the mobile computing environment introduces a new area of ergonomic concerns. Are businesses and end users monitoring the use of these devices from an ergonomic perspective? The good news is the outcome can be influenced and/or determined with intentional efforts on the part of both end users and managers. This paper includes an in depth review of the current and emerging issues, especially the mobile end user environment, that is important to the end user, manager, and organization as a whole. It also provides end user ergonomic suggestions and resources and addresses the management challenges rising from ergonomic issues.
