Abstract: 

In this paper, we analyze a variety of algorithmic methods that can be used by the investigators of different fraud scenarios. We argue that the use of various social network overlays, coupled with graph theoretic concepts, is helpful in fraud investigation, particularly when fraud involves multiple perpetrators who may be insiders of the victim organization. We also present a set of consistent metrics that could be used to select and calibrate particular investigative techniques.

Abstract: 

Location based advertisement (LBA) enables advertisers to attract customers more effectively than ever, by sending location-aware advertisements, which we call e-coupons, through mobile devices. We consider a push-based LBA system and study a profit maximization problem of the advertiser, which we call the e-coupons delivery problem. We formulate this problem as a dynamic and stochastic programming model and find the structural properties of the optimal policy.

 

 

Title: 

A Dynamic Model of Emotions, Attitudes, and IS Security Policy Violations

 

Presenting Author: 

John D'Arcy,University of Delaware, Newark DE, United States of America, jdarcy@udel.edu

 

Abstract: 

Research suggests that emotions play a prominent role in explaining employee deviance. In this study, we explore the dynamic nature of workplace events, emotions, and attitudes in predicting employees’ deliberate IS security policy violations. The study is rooted in affective events theory and utilizes an experience-sampling methodology to assess within-individual variation in several of the study variables, including emotions.

 

 

Title: 

Collaboration, Interdependency, and Transfer Pricing

 

Presenting Author: 

Matthew Hashim,Assistant Professor of MIS, Eller College of Management, The University of Arizona, 1130 E. Helen St., McClelland Hall, Room 430, Tucson AZ 85721, United States of America, mhashim@email.arizona.edu

 

Abstract: 

Entities often engage in interdependent activities that may have an effect on other entities (e.g., airport security, health information exchanges). Using an experimental setting, we design several treatments using either endogenous or exogenous transfer pricing, and draw conclusions about the ability for subjects to achieve the optimal level of collaboration.
