Abstract
Organizational computing is an emerging field of study, the development of which will have profound socioeconomic implications for organizations and individuals in the coming years. Currently it is an ill‐structured field crisscrossed by various streams of research. Frameworks previously advanced to help characterize the field and foster its further study have been developed primarily from a technological perspective. Here, we review such frameworks and argue for the creation of organizational computing frameworks within the complementary organizational perspective. Desirable traits of such frameworks are identified as a basis for stimulating their creation.Keywords
