Software livre
Abstract in Portuguese
O objetivo deste trabalho é estudar o processo de adoção do Software Livre na Universidade de São Paulo. É de especial interesse o estudo dos aspectos culturais e organizacionais que contribuíram para a adoção do Software Livre entre os administradores de sistemas. O estudo de adoção, não se limitou à adoção individual, mas se estendeu à adoção organizacional uma vez que a adoção de inovações tecnológicas em organizações difere de modo especial da adoção individual. A adoção organizacional aborda aspectos como a extensão do uso da inovação e, o quão profundamente o uso da tecnologia altera processos, estruturas e cultura organizacional. O fenômeno de adoção na Universidade revela-se particularmente importante por ter se tratado da adoção de uma nova tecnologia, em grande escala e bem-sucedida. Esta pesquisa estuda quais são os fatores condicionantes e os que favoreceram a adoção da nova tecnologia, bem como o contexto social e cultural desta adoção em diferentes Unidades da USP.

Abstract in English
The objective of this work is to study the adoption of Free Software in the University of São Paulo. It is of special interest the study of the cultural and organizational aspects that contributed to the adoption of the Free Software among the systems administrators. The adoption study, was not limited to the individual adoption, but it extended to the organizational adoption once the adoption of technological innovations in organizations differs in special ways from the individual adoption. The organizational adoption examines aspects as the extension of the use of the innovation and, how deeply the use of the technology affects processes, structures and organizational culture. The adoption phenomenon in the University is particularly important for having it been a voluntary adoption of a new technology, in great scale and well succeeded. This research studies which factors restricted or favored the adoption of the new technology, as well as the social and cultural context of this adoption in different Units of USP
