All over the world there are researchers who publish the latest cutting-edge ideas and thinking as research papers. But these research papers are very long and use all sorts of terminology. I'm a junior researcher and PhD student in the discipline of Information Systems (I.S.). On this podcast, my goal is to read an I.S. research paper every week and summarise the main points for you, my dear listeners; hopefully, this will get you interested enough to have a look at the paper for yourself! :) 10 Minute I.S. Paper (TMISP) is the podcast where we cover Information Systems research papers, in brief.
