Vår avsikt med uppsatsen var att utvärdera e-handelslösningen osCommerce utifrån ett ramverk som vi skapade och genom en enklare installation av e-handelssystemet. Utvärderingen gjordes för att underlätta för en potentiell intressent att välja eller förkasta osCommerce. Genom att läsa om e-handel och IT i facklitteratur och på Internet hittade vi aspekter som vi ansåg var viktiga att beakta när det gällde kvaliteten på en e-handelslösning. Dessa aspekter - administration, funktioner och layout, säkerhet, teknologi, resursåtgång, installation, marknadsföring samt flexibilitet - kom att utgöra utvärderingskriterier i vårt ramverk. För att ta reda på vad användarna av osCommerce tyckte om systemet genomförde vi semistrukturerade intervjuer via e-post.

Denna uppsats behandlar hur ett införande av SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) påverkar en organisations IT-arkitektur. IT-arkitekturen har stor betydelse för en organisation och det är viktigt att arkitekturen är anpassad efter verksamheten för att lyckas med ett införande. Syftet var således att ta fram ett ramverk innehållande faktorer som påverkar IT-arkitekturen vid ett införande av SOA, vilka problem dessa faktorer kan medföra samt förslag på åtgärder. Genom litteraturgranskning och tre kvalitativa intervjuer erhöll vi underlag för att skapa ovan nämnda ramverk. Resultatet blev ett ramverk innehållande fem dimensioner av IT-arkitektur som visar att påverkan till stor del beror på hur väl IT-arkitekturen är anpassad till verksamheten.

I och med den nya lagstiftningen hoppades Antipiratbyrån och dess medlemsorganisationer att nedladdningen av musik och annan upphovsrättskyddat material skulle upphöra eller minska. Detta har den inte gjort samtidigt som det hela tiden kommer nya tekniker som gör det möjligt att gå förbi lagstiftningen, detta beror på att lagstiftningen upplevs som luddig. Efter den 1:a juli 2005 har det blivit olagligt att ladda ner upphovsrättsskyddat material. Trots detta förbud fortsätter personer att ladda ner, kan detta bero på att de saknar moral eller är det så att personerna har missuppfattat gällande lagstiftning?
