Authors: Syahrul Hezrin Mahmud  , Wan Dorishah Wan Abdul Manan  , Zawawi Ismail@ Abdul Wahab
Published: January 2023

The effectiveness and efficiency of communication is very crucial in ensuring the accomplishment of an organization’s goals. Communication channels play an important role in achieving these goals. The adaptation of the latest and appropriate technology will be of significant value to enhance the effectiveness of internal communication. Due to issues of internal communication efficacy, a preliminary study will be conducted in an organization to find major problems and opportunities. An adaptation of the new Marketing Technology Acceptance Model (MTAM) is used in order to understand and determine the effectiveness of electronic communication channels. This model is applied in developing a set of questionnaires where the questions are adapted or adopted from previous studies. Some of the questions are also customised to suit the requirements of the organization under the current study. There will be more than 80% of 265 respondents for this study. The findings will be used as bases in formulating and developing a mobile application for more effective internal communication within the organization. The findings of this research will also contribute towards the theory and practical refinement of MTAM and communication through mobile applications.
A Conceptualization of Industrial Internet of Things towards Manufacturing Safety Performance
Authors: Latifah Naina Mohamed  , Yudi Fernando  , Anisha Banu Dawood Gani
Published: January 2023

This paper conceptualizes the relationship between Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and manufacturing safety performance. Through a review on systematic literature review (SLR) articles from Emerald database from year 2018 and white papers, this paper proposes a conceptual framework on IIoT for manufacturing safety performance. Usage of sensors and wearables, virtual or augmented reality and AI and industrial automation are hypothesized to be contributing towards the safety improvement in the manufacturing industry. Manufacturing firms that adopt IIoT can minimize human interaction with equipment and thereby improve the overall safety of its employees and reduce workplace injuries. As the topic on the usage of IoT or IIoT in the context of safety is scarce in current academic literature, this conceptualization of the relationship between these variables are expected to pave way for more empirical research and literature enrichment.

The elderly contributes a large and growing population that may benefit from online banking. Current mobile apps for bank transactions ignore elder users' expectations and skills, resulting in poor app uptake and hindering their access to online banking in a digitalizing environment. We researched the behaviours of elderly people to design a bank-transaction app prototype. Seven older persons (55 to 60+) participated in a five-phase design-thinking process. Phase I (empathy and definition) semi-structured interviews revealed significant elements for phase II concept formulation (ideation). In step III (prototyping and testing), the top concept was produced as a smartphone app prototype and pilot-tested with interviews. Our participants seek language-learning tools that stimulate face-to-face social connection, an active lifestyle, and several language-learning objectives. Our novel solution improves user experience and adds functionality on a single platform. In the digital age, older people can provide crucial insight into app-based innovations meant to improve their user experience and social life. The created notion can be used to adjust current programmes for elder users.

Published: January 2023

The Financial Stability Review Second Half 2021 of Bank Negara Malaysia’s (BNM) has reported that the number of unsold houses in Malaysia remained elevated at 180,702 units in the third quarter of 2021 (Q3’21). This has attracted the researcher to explore more on House Price Index (HPI) in Malaysia. HPI measures volatility prices of residential housing in Malaysia over time. The objective of this study is to identify whether there is a relationship among interest rate, inflation rate, population, and house price index in Malaysia by using STATA software. The annual time series data spanning from 2003 to 2021 is used to achieve the objective of this research. The analysis of such times series data was made through the Johansen Test and it was discovered that all explanatory variables were related to HPI in a long run; in which it is negatively related to interest rate, inflation rate and population. However, when the Granger Causality Test was applied to the same time series data, HPI was found to be affected by both the interest and the inflation. Population, on the other hand, does not influence HPI in the short run dynamics. Therefore, it is concluded that most variables used in the study are significant in determining HPI. It is recommended that more independent variables such as real GDP per capita, real domestic credit, construction costs and land supply that can influence HPI should be added for future studies .

Authors: Pranitha Janapatla  , Anomitra Chakraborty
Published: January 2023

The present study concerns with the mixed convection nanofluid flow across a vertical wedge with Radiation, MHD, Brownian motion, thermophoresis effects using Lie Group scaling analysis. The governing set of highly nonlinear partial differential equations are non-dimensionalized through appropriate transformations and transformed into ordinary differential equations using Lie Group Scaling, which is solved numerically using Shooting method along with bvp4c scheme. The radiation heat flux approximated with the Rosseland approximation has been implemented in the flow equations. The influence of mixed convection, magnetic, Brownian motion, radiation, Lewis number and thermophoresis parameter on the flow profiles are examined. For establishing the efficiency of our adopted numerical technique, we made comparisons with the earlier published works and we found them to be in very good agreement.

The Risks Associated With ITIL Information Security Management in Micro Companies
Authors: Lopes Sérgio Sargo , Lousã Mário Dias , Almeida Fernando
Published: January 2023

Information security has become a necessity for all organizations. ITIL, designed for large organizations, has also been gradually adopted by smaller companies and has incorporated practices related to information security management (ISM). This study aims to understand the main risks associated with ISM, considering the context of micro companies. For this purpose, a qualitative model was built based on four case studies of micro companies in the information technology industry. The results show that companies are concerned about information security, given the growth of external threats. However, these companies have a lack of commitment, of resources, and of knowledge that hinder the implementation of an ISM policy. Therefore, it is evident that the challenge of ISM is demanding and should be addressed, considering that the security of an organization should be analyzed in a holistic context, where all perspectives should be considered to reflect the multidisciplinary nature of security.

Authors: Singh Arun Kumar
Published: January 2023

Python is a more powerful high-level language created by Guido van Rossum (first appeared in 20 February 1991; 31 years ago), and its language constructs and object-oriented approach aim to help programmers write clear, logical code for small- and large-scale projects. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability with the use of significant indentation. Python is an object oriented, scripted, and interpreted language for both learning and real-world programming. First in this paper, Python is introduced as a language, and a summary given about data science, machine learning, and IoT. Then, details are provided about the packages that are popular in the data science and machine learning communities, such as NumPy, SciPy, TensorFlow, Keras, and Matplotlib. After that, the authors will show the working criteria of Python for building IOT applications. The authors will use different code examples throughout.

Published: January 2023

A steganography approach is a beneficial approach for hiding and encrypting messages in text, audio, video, and image formats. After the original text file is first encrypted, this encrypted file is embedded with an image file, and that image will be transferred to the recipient. The motive of this method is easy communication and transferring of files to end users safely. The intruder is the only one who can view the unhidden message which is in text, audio, video, or image format. Thus, the message is encrypted successfully. Although there are many advantages for the steganography, which also has some limitations, these issues are mainly aimed in this paper. In this chapter, the challenges of steganography are rectified with the help of securing techniques. Finally, in the results section, findings in image size and the complexity of image quality at the sender side and receiver side in one-bit, two-bit, three-bit, and four-bit steganography images are stated. Thus, steganography methods are taking progressive steps to transform this capability into higher contributions.

Talking about ‘big data' refers to datasets that are either extraordinarily large or have a complex structure. These traits may sometimes be accompanied by more difficult data storage, processing, and application of following activities, or the extraction of discoveries. The practice of doing analytics on massive, complex datasets, sometimes known as ‘big data,' is a method that may be utilized to discover links and patterns in these datasets that were previously undiscovered. However, attempts to protect the privacy and security of big data are undermined by its rapid spread.

Education on the Notion of Citizenship From Modernity to the EU Times
Authors: Kartezinis Kosmas
Published: January 2023

The creation of States was already a reality in the late 17th and the early 18th century in Europe, an administrational phenomenon having been propelled by the establishment of a parliamentary authority in Britain and the bureaucratic totalitarianism in continental Europe. The creation of States gaining the form, and the institutional legalization as is known today, gave to its prominent citizens like government and senior management officials, bureaucrats and the representatives of the merchant world, the awareness that States not only were the entities that could monopolize the exercise of power, but they were those entities that could design the totality of measures for the legal, tax, and institutional power over the people that were called its citizens. The States' need for growth and expansion imposes the needed legality behind awarding citizenship. The principle of cosmopolitanism prevails in all western democracies by imposing the same patterns for the matter.
Effects of Classroom Colour on Learning Processes for a Future Smart Classroom
Authors: Quiles-Rodríguez José , Palau Ramon
Published: January 2023

Scientific literature shows that colour has an enormous impact on education, at all educational stages, and is universally understood. Colour is a fundamental part of learning environments but its influence on learning processes needed to be systematically classified. As far as the authors know, this is the first study to categorise the various cognitive and affective-social processes that are influenced by colours and their shades. In the 21st century, with the rise in educational technology and concepts such as smart classroom or intelligent learning environments, a new perspective also opens up for colour in classroom environments. “Dynamic colour” can be enhanced thanks to the possibilities of coloured light with LED technology. Few studies have been made on the issue, but those that have belong more to fields such as interior design. This study shows its future potential but should be followed by further research to demonstrate its possibilities in the field of education.
Impact of Inbound Open Innovation on Chinese Advanced Manufacturing Enterprise Performance
Authors: Li Depeng , Hou Renyong
Published: January 2023

From the perspective of network embedding, this paper deeply analyzes the relationship between corporate absorptive capacity, environmental turbulence, and corporate innovation performance. Based on network embedding theory, knowledge management theory, and research data on advanced manufacturing enterprises in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River in China, this paper uses structural equation modeling for empirical analysis. (1) Environmental turbulence affects firms' innovation performance. When the external environment is highly turbulent, consumer demand can force companies to embed in external network organizations to obtain more heterogeneous resources, reduce the innovation cycle, and improve corporate innovation performance. (2) Network embedding can improve the enterprises' innovation performance through knowledge and value chains. (3) Enterprises' absorptive capacity plays an important role in improving innovation performance. Research shows that an enterprise with a stronger absorptive capacity is more able to improve its innovation performance.

Published: January 2023

Epidemiological data on the association between fibrinogen levels and mortality are scarse and controversial. Longitudinal analyses were performed, separately by sex, on 17,689 individuals from the Moli-sani study [53% women, ≥35 years, free from cardiovascular disease (CVD) or cancer at enrolment], to evaluate the association between plasma fibrinogen and all-cause and cause-specific mortality. Over a median follow-up of 11.2 years, 1,058 deaths (34.7% CVD, 36.3% cancer) were ascertained. Both in the lowest (1.12-2.64 g/L) and highest (≥3.62 g/L) fibrinogen quintiles, women had an increased all-cause mortality hazard, when compared with third quintile (2.97-3.23 g/L). Dose-response analyses showed a U-shaped relationship in women (P overall <0.0001; P non-linear association <0.0001), but a positive linear association for all-cause mortality in men (P overall 0.0038; P non-linear association 0.76). Similar trends for a U-shaped association were observed for CVD mortality, while no association was observed with cancer deaths. A U-shaped association of fibrinogen levels with other-cause mortality was also found in both sexes. This study shows that not only higher but also lower fibrinogen levels represent hazard for mortality when compared to normal levels; U-shaped curves being prevalently observed in women.

Background: Augmented reality (AR) and gamification, which involve the use of mobile devices, tablets, and laptops to enhance learning experiences, are relatively new in tertiary education. This article calls for the implementation of AR and gamification in pharmacy education in African countries and other low-resource settings.
Method: A search strategy was conducted using the following keywords: ‘gamification’, ‘augmented reality’, ‘game-based learning’, ‘pharmacy education’, ‘African Countries’ and ‘low resource settings’ on PubMed, PubMed Central and Google Scholar databases.
Results: Pharmacy students in African countries and other low resources settings face challenges which include: a limited number of lecturers, underdeveloped infrastructure, paucity of knowledge, and restricted educational resources coupled with a lack of pedagogy related to teaching courses. Incorporation of AR and gamification systems into their learning process will enhance student motivation and understanding.
Conclusion: Pharmacy schools and concerned stakeholders in African countries and other low-resource settings should consider the rapidly evolving technology by developing appropriate and productive AR and game-based learning concepts that would enhance learning experiences, given its numerous benefits.
Hyperreality and Liveness in Kenyan Spoken Word Poetry Performances in Social Media
Authors: Ekesa Beatrice Jane , Rinkanya Alina Nikolaevna , Wabende Kimingichi
Published: January 2023

The postmodern concept of hyperreality has gained enough relevance in contemporary society due to advancement in digital media technology. The use of social media as a performance space reintroduces the ongoing debate about what constitutes liveness in a performance. Traditionally, liveness was defined in terms of theatrical performances, but over time the term has broadened to incorporate digital media performances. Social media performances are important in helping to establish how liveness is constructed in virtual spaces, where physical co-presence between the performer and the audience is non-existent. An exploration of liveness in relation to televised drama contextualizes the discussion about liveness in mediated performances and sets the stage for the analysis of unique features that distinguish television performances with social media performances. Spoken word poetry performances in social media spaces provide the necessary framework within which to illustrate how liveness is constructed in social media spaces. The key objective in this study is to distinguish the construction of liveness in social media spaces with other mediated performances, with the aim of introducing new perspectives in the concept of hyperreality and the field of performance studies in general.

Carbon bodies are nomads. Time moves through them, and eventually, the cells, fibers,and organs wilt, rot,and die, becoming fodder for something new. This perpetual recycling of physical matter excretes tendrils of smoke, dirt, dust,and spores. As bodies are buried, burnt,or sent into space, their traces and cellular legacies become absorbed in everything and exist everywhere all at once on this celestial body. In this way, human, vegetal,and more-than-human bodies become sustenance and cellular traces for generations.

An Overview of Criminal Justice System to Uphold the Supremacy of Law in a Sovereign State: An International Perspective
Authors: Zaman Muhammad Sher , Bhatti Shaukat Hussain
Published: January 2023

Human kind is an integral part of every society. The establishment of a civilized balanced society cannot be regarded as accurate until the profound existence of the supremacy of law. Prevailing law and order situations worldwide are not only damaging human existence. Still, they are also a threat to a highly unembellished nature for the mainstay promulgation of political, social, and economic norms. The gradual increase in abnormal crime ratio in developing and developed sovereign states is due to flaws in the existing criminal justice system. A strapping criminal justice system is a ray of hope for immediate social rehabilitation. These flaws are similar hurdles to ascertaining sustainable development goals.
