TAM uses TRA as a theoretical basis and involves two primary predictors - perceived ease of use (PEOU) and perceived usefulness (PU) and the dependent variable behavioural intention (BI), which TRA assumed to be closely linked to actual behaviour.

(1998), the literature related to network effects broadly tackles three categories of research questions: (1) technology adoption decisions (e.g., what factors are related to whether and when a new technology is adopted), (2) technology compatibility decisions (e.g., what factors influence a firm’s decision to seek compatibility), and (3) decisions among competing incompatible technologies (e.g., what factors are related to consumers’ choices among rival incompatible products within a single product
that as an outcome of increased competition, the ability to produce products as scheduled is important to any organisation. This has resulted in organisations investing in technologies and frameworks that manage and support their software development processes (Jwo, Hsu & Cheng, 2010). Application Lifecycle Management Technology (ALMT) is proposed as a solution for the management of software development activities. The concept of ALMT is relatively new and as a result there are no extensive studies

This was roughly one year shorter than the lifecycle of the Xbox 360 and the Playstation3. The lifecycles of all three consoles varied due to marketing, media, and adoption of the products. It was surprising to most critics and even the competitors that the Wii actually entered the introductory and growth stage
Pharmaceutical Product Lifecycle Management can be defined as the business activity of managing, related to optimizing lifetime performance of pharmaceutical products, in the most effective way across the entire lifecycle of the product, from the first idea until the end of the products exclusivity [3].

A few examples of popular change models are Kotter’s Eight Steps to Change, Bridge’s Transition Model, and Roger’s Technology Adoption Lifestyle Model. Organizations can use John Kotter’s model for leading change which is an eight-stage process that incorporates steps that leaders can use to guide them through steps to implement change (Gupta, 2011).
