A green approach towards systems development methodologies / Neill Christopher BraybrookeBraybrooke, Neill Christopher January 2013 (has links)
The aim of this study was to determine a Green approach towards systems development
methodologies and to investigate influences that affect the adoption of Green Information
Technologies and Green Information Systems in South Africa. A literature review was
done in order to determine which empirical is required to achieve the research objectives.
The positivistic paradigm was found to be the most suited paradigm for this study. A
survey was used as the research method and conducted in South Africa. The data was
collected using a questionnaire, after determining that it was the most suited data
collection method. The questionnaire was validated using structural equation modelling in
order to determine if the data that was collected is valid. The valid data was then
evaluated using different statistical methods, such as correlations, t-test, ANOVA tests
and Cross-Tabs.
The study revealed that the different characteristics of organisations can influence
different aspects, such factors that inhibit or motivate the adoption of Green IT and Green
IS. Interestingly, characteristics of individuals had no impact. It was also revealed that
organisational culture and national culture had an impact on factors that motivate the
adoption of Green IT initiatives. / MSc (Computer Science), North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2014
