Creating theoretical research frameworks using multiple methods: insight from ICT4D investigations

This text demonstrates, in a step-by-step fashion, the development of theoretically sound information technology and communications for developing an (ICT4D) research program.

It outlines a path for linking grand theories with context-specific case studies.

It guides readers through building complex methodologies relying on parametric and non-parametric data analytic and data mining techniques.

Finally, the book demonstrates some of the ways for inquiring into the issues associated with the dynamic nature of organizations, industries, and economies, as well as some of the practical means for improving their performance.
