Abstract:

Chatbots sind text- oder sprachbasierte Dialogautomatismen, die von Organisationen für eine Vielzahl von Use Cases, wie z.B. der Änderungen von Kundendaten oder dem Abrufen von FAQs, eingesetzt werden können. Eine spannende strategische Dimension, die sich aus der immer stärkeren Verbreitung von Chatbots ergibt, liegt in der Nutzung sogenannter Conversational Platforms (CP). Letztere sind Technologien für text- und sprachbasierte Konversationen, die sich den einfachen aber vielfältigen Standard “Dialog” zunutze machen. [Aus der Einleitung.]

This dissertation presents three essays that focus on various aspects pertaining to the management of online platforms, defined as "digital services that facilitate interactions between two or more distinct, but interdependent sets of users (whether firms or individuals) who interact through the service via the Internet" (OECD, 2019). The interactions benefit both the users and the platform.

As low-voter-turnout continues to be a concern for the political system in the U.S., the idea online voting platforms (OVPs), to reduce access and use barriers, has been debated. Lowlevel elections in several states across the country have experimented with OVPs through U.S.based internet voting organization, Everyone Counts. These experiments resulted in both the confirmation of perceived benefits and problems. Surveying 196 U.S. citizens through Survey Sampling International, this study garnered respondents' feelings toward several factors correlated with voter-turnout, and the likelihood

Online participatory platforms, such as blogs and discussion forums, are flexible, adaptive information resources that could be used to meet the diverse needs of this population.

Online knowledge sharing is the backbone of organisational competitiveness. It helps organisations survive fierce competition since it often facilitates the transfer of individual knowledge to organisational capital and decreases redundant learning time. Yet, a key issue for organisations is engaging employee participation in online knowledge sharing, as the majority of employees have a tendency to lurk preferring to read the knowledge that is shared without contributing themselves.

Abstract:

To better connect supply and demand for various products, marketers needed novel ways to segment and target their customers with relevant adverts. Over the last decade, companies that collected a large amount of psychographic and behavioural data about their customers emerged as the pioneers of hyper-targeting. For example, Google can infer people’s interests based on their search queries, Facebook based on their thoughts, and Amazon by analysing their shopping cart history. In this context, the traditional channel used for advertising – the media market – saw its revenues plummeting as it fai

Crowdsourcing systems enable new opportunities for requesters with limited funds to accomplish various tasks using human computation. However, the power of human computation is abused by malicious requesters who create malicious campaigns to manipulate information in web systems such as social networking sites, online review sites, and search engines. To mitigate the impact and reach of these malicious campaigns to targeted sites, we propose and evaluate a machine learning based classification approach for detecting malicious campaigns in crowdsourcing platforms as a first line of defense, and

The relevance of counterpublics derives both from their ability to influence mainstream political discourse and from how anti-progressive counterpublics have been found to contribute to real-life violence. As the internet becomes an increasingly important venue for political discussion and contestation, the public sphere is extended online. This study explores how

Abstract:

The sharing economy, or collaborative consumption, refers to peer-to-peer sharing of goods and services coordinated through a commercialized or community-based online platform. Collaborative consumption platforms are used for sharing of our under-used assets, e.g. our homes, tools, and vehicles, and can bring social communities together. Through sharing we use our resources more effectively, and contribute towards a more sustainable lifestyle.

Abstract:

The success of Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk) as an online research platform has come at a price: MTurk has suffered from slowing rates of population replenishment, and growing participant non-naivety. Recently, a number of alternative platforms have emerged, offering capabilities similar to MTurk but providing access to new and more naïve populations. After surveying several options, we empirically examined two such platforms, CrowdFlower (CF) and Prolific Academic (ProA). In two studies, we found that participants on both platforms were more naïve and less dishonest compared to MTurk partici

Abstract:

Online jobseeking platforms are now widespread, but little research has been done so far on what drives them, what they are required for and what their success depends on, as well as how they influence the success of individual jobseekers. This dissertation includes a study on various aspects that potentially affect jobseeking success and pertain to online jobseeking platforms. This dissertation aims to investigate how the use of jobseeking platforms impacts the success of a job search, as well as how the success of that job search is affected by a site’s usability. These aspects were investig

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>資訊管理學研究所<br>103<br>Digital advertising has grown rapidly in recent years, where online advertising platforms may deliver ads to target customers more precisely than traditional advertising providers since they know customers better by mining customers’ preferences from the data collected on their platforms. The ad effectiveness on an online advertising platform may be influenced by its targeting accuracy and degree of socialization. The higher degree of socialization, the stronger social interaction and tie among users on the platform, which may lead to the larger word-of-mouth

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>資訊管理學研究所<br>103<br>To provide a differentiated service for attracting customers, online video streaming platforms may produce their own programs or enrich their contents through buying exclusive programs from media providers. Therefore, in this thesis, we propose a model to study how the strategies of online video streaming platforms are affected by self-production programs, exclusive programs and customers’ preference for programs. Our proposed model not only finds the most profitable region for each strategy but also shows that despite the fact that the equilibrium strategy i
