Information technology governance (ITG) is one of the top challenges of managers today and culture in different level can have an important role while implementing IT governance. This is a new and significant issue, which has not been investigated deeply. This paper sets out to provide a systematic review of the literature, focusing on the role of culture in IT governance. The literature review findings are categorized through the lens of IT governance's five focus areas which are IT strategic alignment, IT value delivery, Risk management, IT resource management and Performance measurement. This study contributes to the field of IT governance by reviewing and discussing the existing literature on the role of culture on IT governance. This literature review resulted that there are few research studies in this topic and many of the IT governance focus areas are not covered regarding the role of culture in these IT governance areas.

More and more enterprises regard Information Technology (IT) as their most valuable property and make full use of IT to maximize the performance of their business operations. As a result, enterprises are attaching more importance to coordinating their IT strategy and enterprise strategy in order to get the most from their IT investment. For the sake of better IT performance and long-term development, firms must adopt a complete strategy for IT governance. In Taiwan, most financial enterprises have not considered IT governance to be a necessity, and those which are implementing IT governance have difficulty explaining, systemically, how it affects IT performance. Based on the five dimensions of IT governance, this study uses the balanced scorecard to measure IT performance and discusses the influence of effective governance on IT performance. The results show that the five dimensions of IT governance (strategic alignment, value delivery, risk management, resource management, and performance measurement) are all positively correlated with IT performance. The results of this study can help Taiwan's financial enterprises set the proper course for IT governance and more clearly understand how it serves to improve IT performance.

ABSTRACT: This paper reviews Information Systems (IS) literature that is relevant to Information Technology Governance (ITG) and examines how it informs Accounting Information Systems (AIS). We present a taxonomy of research encompassing the focus areas identified by the IT Governance Institute (ITGI), namely Strategic Alignment (SA), Risk Management (RK), Resource Management (RM), Value Delivery (VD) and Performance Measurement (PM). Based upon 496 papers in ten IS/AIS and two Management Accounting journals over the period 1998–2008, we discuss research perspectives and identify avenues for future research. Results revealed a lack of integration between focus areas, with little about ITG as a whole.

ABSTRACT This study investigates the extant literature concerned with Information Technology Governance (ITG), published in leading accounting and management information systems journals, in the period 2005 to 2017. While recent research into ITG has taken a more holistic organizational perspective, the essence remains people, product, processes, and performance. Our review reveals ITG's increasingly dual role in improving organizational capability and performance, as well as controlling and monitoring outcomes. Findings show that ITG is concerned with both governing of IT and governing through IT, presaging a more defined connection between ITG's five focus areas and Corporate Governance. Other new themes include ITG's role in improving outcomes in intra- and inter-organizational relationships, embryonic efforts to distill a theory of ITG, and emerging scenarios where the evolving role of IT in business activities is creating profound organizational implications and consequently new avenues for ITG.

The application of information technology governance (IT Governance) plays an important role in utilizing information technology to fit the company's vision, mission and goals. However, there are still many companies that have not implemented IT Governace due to various factors such as: the existence of internal companies that refuse the application of information technology, the limited human resources who master information technology competence, the unavailability of frameworks and policy foundations in the information technology environment, the lack of commitment from top management, the high cost of investment in IT Governance and so on. The greater use of technology has not been accompanied by greater support for the achievement of strategies so that investments made are in vain. research and research results show that the lack of understanding of IT Governance makes unproductive investments made by companies. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative which presents a systematic review of the problems in the implementation of Information Technology Governance (IT Governance).

The rise of e-commerce has brought considerable changes to the relationship between firms and consumers, especially within international business. Hence, understanding the use of such means for entering foreign markets has become critical for companies. However, the research on this issue is new and so it is important to evaluate what has been studied in the past. In this study, we conduct a systematic review of e-commerce and internationalisation studies to explicate how firms use e-commerce to enter new markets and to export. The studies are classified by theories and methods used in the literature. Moreover, we draw upon the internationalisation decision process (antecedents-modalities-consequences) to propose an integrative framework for understanding the role of e-commerce in internationalisation

A review of the literature on the stages of the formation of temporary and permanent occlusion has been performed. This stages play an important role not only for the full development of the maxillofacial apparatus, temporomandibular joint, but also the whole organism. The role of early tooth extraction in the formation of the physiological state of the dentoalveolar system is considered. The conclusion is drawn about the need for a deeper study of this problem in the structure of general dental morbidity.
