It provides thought-provoking accounts of the little-known early history of technological development in information and communication technology (ICT) and the automation industry in Poland, with a focus on Wroclaw. The book provides a framework for understanding the relationship between ethics and behaviour, and analyses critically ethical and behavioural issues in challenging workplaces and social contexts. It includes: case studies from around the world, especially Poland, which illustrate the relationships between human behaviour and ethics; biographies of successful Polish ICT and automation leading designers; analysis of case studies of human behaviour and ethics in challenging industrial development and other environments; and illustrative practical applications alongside the theory of human behaviour and ethics. The authors demonstrate the ingenuity of the early Polish designers, programmers and other specialists in overcoming the shortage of components caused by import embargoes to enable Poland to develop its own computer industry. An example of this is Elwro, formerly the largest manufacturer of computers in Poland. The discussion of its growth illustrates the potential of human creativity to overcome problems. The discussion of its fall highlights the importance of ethical approaches to technology transfer and the dangers of a colonialist mentality. The book is designed for engineers, computer scientists, researchers and professionals alike, as well as being of interest for those broadly concerned with ethics and human behaviour. 001476216 650_0 $$aInformation technology$$xMoral and ethical aspects$$zPoland. 001476216 650_0 $$aInformation technology$$xMoral and ethical aspects$$vCase studies. 001476216 650_0 $$aHuman behavior$$vCase studies. 001476216 650_0 $$aHuman-computer interaction$$zPoland. 001476216 650_0 $$aHuman-computer interaction$$vCase studies. 001476216 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001476216 7001_ $$aLewoc, Józef B. 001476216 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aHersh, Marion$$tEthics and Human Behaviour in ICT Development$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031252761 001476216 852__ $$bebk 001476216 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-25277-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001476216 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1476216$$pGLOBAL_SET 001476216 980__ $$aBIB 001476216 980__ $$aEBOOK 001476216 982__ $$aEbook 001476216 983__ $$aOnline 001476216 994__ $$a92$$bISE
