Dear Colleagues,

On our request for links to PhD dissertations that used Design Science 
approach (repeated at the end of this message), we got the list of 
references presented below.

We are thankful to all who responded.

Thank you and best regards

Dear Colleagues,

Hereby, we kindly request your help in our efforts to investigate the 
connection between Design Science Research (DSR) on one hand and 
Empirical Research (ER) on the other. The general outline for this 
investigation was presented at and published in the proceedings of 
DESRIST 2013 as research in progress:

Bider I., Johannesson P., Perjons E., Using Empirical Knowledge and 
Studies in the Frame of Design Science Research. In J. vom Brocke et al. 
(Eds.): DESRIST 2013, LNCS 7939, Springer, 2013, pp. 463–470:

Now, we are going into the second stage - "adding meat to the bones", 
and validating the approach in practice. For this, we need reports on 
completed projects done under DSR paradigm. Currently, we believe that 
the best source for such reports would be completed doctoral thesis with 
Design Science as dominated approach. Our belief is connected to the 
fact that PhD candidates are required to report not only on the results 
of their research, but also detailed methods used when obtaining them.

We would appreciate any links/reference to PhD thesis in IS, your own or 
you students or colleagues, that were completed using DSR as the main 
approach for obtaining the results. Best of all, we would like links 
that allows to download the texts of the thesis.

Thanks you for cooperation.
The compiled list will be posted back to the list.

--Sincerely Ilia
