RCSS Home Page Socioeconomic research for the Department of sociology. http://www.rcss.ed.ac.uk/technology/
Extractions: Social and economic research on technology at RCSS focuses upon the social shaping of technology, particularly in relation to Information and Communications Technologies Research has addressed the development and implementation of company-wide information systems in manufacturing industry and in the finance service sector. More recent work examined the development of Inter-Organisational Networks and Systems such as Electronic Funds Transfer at Point of Sale (EFTPoS) and Electronic Data Interchange. Deep understanding has been achieved of the close relationship between 'technology' and 'organisation' in Information and Communications Technologies - as a process of mutual shaping, rather than the deterministic triumph of one over the other. This work has revealed that innovation is not restricted to the initial Research and Development of new technological products, but continues as they are commercially applied and used. Thus, workplace technologies are reshaped within the industrial setting, as supplier offerings are adapted and further elaborated to meet the requirements of their implementation and use. More recent research projects examine the emergence of Multimedia and the Information Superhighway studying the co-evolution of society and technology, and the interactions between industrial innovators, users at work and home, and public policy.
