This paper is a research with a purpose to find out which factors would influence Lithuanian consumers’ intention to adopt a new way of borrowing and lending. We present an innovation – online social lending and try to find out what is necessary for adoption. Two most commonly applied and empirically supported models of IT-based innovation adoption are employed. The first model – technology adoption model (TAM) is updated by two extra variables – risk and self-efficacy to adopt it to this certain innovation. The second model - and second model – Diffusion of innovation (Perceived characteristics of innovation (PCI?) is modified by removal of not applicable factors. As a research instrument, questionnaire was delivered through e-mails (hyperlink) and hand-in paper copies. 327 responses were received and data generated for statistical model analysis. Our findings reveal that perceived usefulness, ease of use, self-efficacy, perceived risk, relative advantage, compatibility, and observability have a significant impact on intention to use online social lending. Moreover, both models do not fully explain the variance in users’ intention to adopt online social lending. Thus, the recommendation for further studies would be to try to employ other models and different factors. The findings imply that any new web-based financial service (including online social lending) introduced over the internet must firstly consider demonstrating the usefulness and benefits of their product. ]]>

Improving Effort Estimation in Agile Software Development Projects /slideshow/improving-effort-estimation-in-agile-software-development-projects/253335836 20130926mastercityuniversitythesisfinal-221004031309-1ced044c
A key principle in agile software development is to manage changing user needs at different phases of the software project development cycle. It splits the development into smaller iterations (sprints) to keep both developers and customers focused on one of them at the time. By planning and working on small consecutive iterations agile teams reduce uncertainty of changing user needs. However this approach has its drawbacks too. It becomes hard for agile team to plan and estimate the whole project in advance accurately as not much information is available. Therefore agile project planning turns into guesstimation of the effort required. It is based on available information about the system requirements and resources available. This paper proposes a method to improve the agile effort guesstimation by applying functional analysis to size user stories. A number of user stories from a media company are obtained to conduct the case study. The COSMIC method is used to size the user stories in functional points. Next those measurements are later applied to calculate the final project effort. The case study concludes that COSMIC user requirements sizing method can improve effort estimation and benefit agile teams in planning projects. Keywords: agile, effort estimation, user story, function points, COSMIC. ]]>
