    <description>Title: Employee Monitoring in the Digital Era: Managing the Impact of Innovation
Authors: McParland, Cliona; Connolly, Regina
Abstract: The many obvious benefits that accompany digital technology have been matched by some less welcome and more contentious impacts. One of these is the steady erosion of privacy. For example monitoring and surveillance has become a fundamental part of the workplace environment, with employee performance often the main object of scrutiny. With companies now competing within a rapidly changing global economy, managers are forced to satisfy market trends that are driven by productivity and efficiency. Attempts to satisfy these imperatives have resulted in a relentless drive to improve performance and increase efficiency. In fact, the increasing number of organisations that monitor employees through advanced digital technologies has added a dystopian edge to existing employee privacy concerns, particularly as many employees are unable to exercise choice in relation to use of these technologies. If unaddressed, their concerns have potential to impact the psychological contract between employee and employer, resulting in loss of employee trust, negative attitudes and counterproductive work behaviours. This paper outlines some of the emerging issues relating to use of employee monitoring technologies. It summarises both management rationale for monitoring as well as employee privacy concerns in an effort to balance the perspectives of both parties.</description>

    <description>Title: Cluster Analysis of IT Security Risks in Chosen Sectors
Authors: Buljan, Ante; Spremić, Mario
Abstract: The problems of digitalisation and transition of companies into the digital markets has become one of the crucial issues in contemporary business. Digital transformation is changing markets and interactions. These trends impose a question on how secure is this environment and how companies are combating this issue. This new environment shows us how knowledge is dispersed across a global market and in individual, national, markets. The goal of the research is to investigate the differences between countries in Europe according to how their companies tackled the challenges of IT security. Clustering is conducted by the use of simple k-means method using the data on European countries available in Eurostat. The digital divide has been found among European countries according to their usage of investigated IT security practices.</description>

    <description>Title: Blockchain: A Coordination Mechanism
Authors: Pietrewicz, Lesław
Abstract: Blockchain technology is firmly established in the public awareness as a revolutionary new technology underpinning cryptocurrency. However, its potential applications can be found across sectors and industries in providing a novel way of producing coordination necessary to transact online, making it a timely invention in the age of progressing digitalization and increasing demands for efficiency and security of online transactions, and a promising research topic addressing the growing academic interest in the coordination aspect of the contract scholarship. The aim of this conceptual paper is to model blockchain as a coordination mechanism for online transactions. Three key aspects of coordination with blockchains are identified and examined – (1) producing consensus about the facts relevant to a transaction, (2) coding contracts, and (3) autonomously executing transactions. They are argued to be integral parts of the mechanism, jointly enabling blockchains to function as a complete mechanism of coordination for online transactions. The model is intended to inform debates on the prospects for the blockchain technology and can be further used to integrate coordination and contract scholarship.</description>

    <description>Title: Current Trends in E-Learning Development
Authors: Zakota, Zoltan
Abstract: E-learning, electronic or digital education, is one of the areas in which information and communication technologies, if although not in the most spectacular way, but have certainly had the deepest impact. All that first seemed to be just an extension of distance learning, and then of the so-called computer-assisted education, has now become an independent, ever-expanding and increasingly dynamic industry. ELearning tools are now used at all levels and in all areas of education and training, including non-formal and lifelong extensions. The aim of my study is to present the current trends in this extremely fast-moving and enormously innovative area. When outlining trends, I take into account the opinions and forecasts of leading individuals, companies and organizations in the profession and the industry.</description>
