The Hidden Lever of Cognitive Time: Extending Activity-Based Costing in the Digital Economy
Authors: Rashed Baker Zakaria Alwardat Aram Mohammed-Amin Qadir, 
Published: December 2023

In today's fast-paced digital world, we're finally realizing that "brain time" isn't just a quirky concept but a crucial economic asset. Sure, the clock on the wall is ticking, but what about the mental clock inside our heads? We're all spending a lot of "cognitive time" to complete tasks, solve problems, and come up with innovative ideas, but no one has really figured out how to manage this resource effectively. That's a big problem, especially when you consider that how long you think about a task isn't necessarily the same as how long that task actually takes in "wall clock time."
Enter our new tech solution: Cognitive Time-Driven Activity-Based Costing, or CTABC for short. It's like a software upgrade for the well-known time-driven activity-based costing method, which many businesses already use to figure out how much their activities cost. What sets CTABC apart is that it factors in human cognition—the mental effort it takes to get stuff done. It's like having a mental stopwatch that actually keeps track of how much brainpower goes into every project, task, or activity. And guess what? It's a game-changer. Why? Because CTABC reveals a hidden glitch, or what we like to call the "hidden lever effect," that has been messing with economic efficiency. You see, most traditional costing methods overlook the cognitive load, or mental effort, it takes to complete tasks. As a result, businesses can seriously underestimate costs, leading to all kinds of inefficiencies and budget headaches.
We're not just throwing theories here; we've run tests that show how CTABC can shine a light on these hidden costs and inefficiencies. For example, it reveals how old-school costing models often underestimate the real costs by ignoring cognitive time. Just think about it—how many times have you or your coworkers misjudged how long a task will take, not because you can't tell time, but because you didn't account for the mental effort involved? Exactly. So, what's the big takeaway? Our CTABC tech doesn't just give a more accurate picture of costs; it provides a roadmap for businesses looking to streamline operations, allocate resources more wisely, and get the most bang for their buck in a digital economy that prizes mental agility. And from an academic standpoint, our research adds a fresh perspective to ongoing debates about cost accounting tech and the evolving digital landscape. It's especially useful for tackling the age-old problem of why we're often so bad at estimating how long tasks will take. In a nutshell, CTABC is like having a new set of eyeglasses that lets businesses see the world, and their own operations, more clearly. It's high time we started paying attention to cognitive time, not just clock time, and CTABC is the tool to help us do just that.

Authors: Rashed Baker Zakaria Alwardat, Aram Mohammed-Amin Qadir, 
Published: December 2023

The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic radically altered the landscape of education, particularly affecting primary and secondary school students. Traditional classroom environments, characterized by physical interaction and social learning, were suddenly swapped out for remote learning platforms during the first two academic years of the pandemic. While educational institutions quickly pivoted to online learning to maintain some semblance of normalcy, research indicates that these years represented a low point in educational quality for teachers and students alike. A plethora of educational models have emerged in response to the challenges introduced by the pandemic-induced shift to digital learning. Among these, three-dimensional virtual learning environments have attracted considerable attention. These platforms aim to elevate the student experience by enhancing readiness levels and promoting interpersonal interaction. In the context of these sweeping changes, the study focuses on the Metaverse—a concept that has garnered significant buzz in contemporary discussions on digital transformation.
The study's primary objective is to explore the feasibility of using the Metaverse as an educational tool, particularly in the realm of accounting education. The paper delves into various facets of the Metaverse, reviewing the existing literature to understand its potential benefits and limitations. Specifically, the study scrutinizes its application in accounting education, outlining a series of recommendations based on evaluations of previous educational endeavors within Metaverse settings. The study brings to light various critical points concerning the adaptability and efficacy of the Metaverse as a viable model for accounting education. It raises essential questions: Can the Metaverse bridge the gap left by traditional classroom settings in fostering engagement and facilitating high-quality learning experiences? Or are the complexities and limitations of this novel platform too great to make it a practical solution for accounting education? By investigating these queries and cross-referencing them with empirical evidence, the study provides a nuanced understanding of the Metaverse's potential role in shaping the future of accounting education. The pandemic has been a catalyst for innovation in education but has also highlighted the limitations of hastily adopted digital models. The study ventures into the realm of possible solutions, examining the Metaverse as a prospective alternative that could potentially revolutionize accounting education. Through an in-depth review of the literature and a critical evaluation of existing Metaverse educational models, the paper offers valuable insights that could inform future educational strategies in the accounting domain.

Single User-Item Profile Matrix in Recommendations System
Authors: Dalai Niharika 
Published: December 2023

Recommendation systems play a vital role in assisting users across various domains, including movies, music, books, and products, by providing personalized and relevant item suggestions. One popular approach employed in recommendation systems is the utilization of a utility matrix. This.0 matrix captures user-item interactions, with each cell representing a user's rating or preference for a particular item. By analyzing the utility matrix, recommendation systems can uncover patterns and resemblance between items and users, enabling accurate predictions and personalized recommendations. Collaborative filtering techniques, such as user-based and item-based approaches, are commonly applied to leverage the utility matrix. These techniques exploit collective user preferences similarities to suggest relevant items to users. Furthermore, the incorporation of additional data, such as item attributes or contextual information, and the adoption of hybrid approaches can further enhance recommendation system performance and effectiveness. By harnessing utility matrices and collaborative filtering, recommendation systems deliver tailored recommendations that enrich users' experiences and facilitate the discovery of items aligned with their individual preferences.
Single User-Item Profile Matrix (SUIPM) is an algorithm which predicts missing feature value like ratings, scores, rankings etc. It uses linear process to predict the missing feature value (like, ratings, scores etc.) of each user within a user cluster or a group of user clusters according to the user’s activity and the preferences. Single User-Item Profile Matrix (SUIPM) algorithm predicts much faster than the Utility Matrix due to its low time complexity. The SUIPM algorithm mainly focuses on the improvement and the optimization of the prediction quality of the Utility Matrix in the recommendations system.
A New Approach on Bipolar Second Degree Perfect Fuzzy Matching for Bipolar Fuzzy Graphs Based on Vertices
Authors: J. Anusha, Dr. B. Uma Devi, R. K. Shanmugha Priya  
Published: December 2023

Graph is a visual representation of data. In mathematics, graph is a structure which creates the pairwise relation between objects. The objects are known as nodes or vertices and the connection between two nodes are known as links or edges. A graph is a symmetric binary relation on a non-empty set whereas Fuzzy graph is a symmetric binary fuzzy relation on a fuzzy subset. Bipolar Fuzzy graph is a generalization of graph theory by using bipolar Fuzzy set. The bipolar Fuzzy sets are the extension of Fuzzy sets. Our main objective is to introduce Bipolar Second Degree Perfect Fuzzy Matching for Bipolar Fuzzy Graph based on vertices. Secondly, we proved the necessary conditions under which they are equivalent and also proved that for a particular condition a perfect second-degree fuzzy matching is not a regular bipolar fuzzy graph. Next, we discussed about perfect second-degree Fuzzy matching and second degree fuzzy matching number for bipolar fuzzy graph on the cycle.

Effect of Sulphate Attack on Self Compacting Concrete
Authors: M. Uday Bhaskar Ipsita Bose Roy Choudhury, 
Published: December 2023

Many current structures are characterized by the complexity of architecture (various shapes and bends) and a high concentration of reinforcement which often makes it difficult to use concrete with conventional plasticity. Recent researches have been conducted in order to adopt concrete to these structures. The resulting concrete formulations are characterized by better workability, while remaining stable with mechanical properties and durability. This new type of concrete can fit in place under the influence of gravity, hence the term self compacting concrete “SCC”.
The external attack of sulphate salts is considered as one of the major problems affecting concrete durability. Sulphates are highly soluble salts in the form of sodium sulphate, calcium sulphate, potassium sulphate, and magnesium sulphate. Sulphate attack is a process in which sulphates react with various phases of hydrated cement paste leading to deterioration of the concrete matrix through spalling, softening, and mass loss, which may lead to expansion and loose strength and elasticity. It is recognized as a complex process due to the effect of The aim of this study to demonstrate the change in strength in SCC when the cement is replaced with lime powder and to determine the sulphate attack on the self compacting concrete.
Compressive strength characteristics for 7days and 28days of the self compacting concrete are determined in which cement is partially replaced with lime powder (0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%) and cured in the sodium sulphate solution.
To attain the planned objectives of the present investigation, M20 grade self compacting concrete is taken and values of cement replaced with limestone at the percentages of 0%,10%,20%,30% were considered. The total of 48 cubes,48 cylinders were casted.24 cubes and 24 cylinders are cured in normal water and 24 cubes and 24 cylinders are cured in sodium sulphate solution. and determined the compressive strength and split tensile strength values. The developments of compressive and tensile strengths of self compacting concrete at the age of 7and 28 days are investigated. Under the influence of external sulphate attack. The parameters comparing the SCC with normal concrete are increased at the 20% of lime powder replacement after that the parameters decreases gradually.

Board diversity, Political Connections and Firm value: An Empirical Evidence from Financial Firms in Nigeria
Authors: Ahmed Bello Rofiat Oyetunji, Isah shittu, 
Published: December 2023

This study investigates the effect of board diversity, political connections, and firm value on the listed financial services firms in Nigeria. Firm value, proxied by Tobin's q and computed as the ratio of the firm's market value of equity to its book value of total assets, is the study's explained variable, while board gender diversity, board nationality, board ethnic diversity, and political connections are the study's explanatory variables. The study’s population consists of 51 listed financial service firms on the Nigerian Stock Exchange as of December 31, 2020. Thirty-five (35) of these firms made up the sample size for a period of nine years (2012–2020). Data was gathered from the annual reports of the sampled companies and analyzed using the feasible generalized least squares regression (FGLS) approach. According to the study, board gender diversity, board nationality, and board ethnic diversity have a positive and significant effect on the firm value of listed financial service firms in Nigeria, whereas political connections have a positive but insignificant effect. According to the findings, the boards of directors of listed financial service organizations in Nigeria should ensure that females are considered for directorship seats on the boards, as suggested by the resource dependency theory.Also, the board should be made up of foreign directors in order to lure foreign investors to the firm and enhance its value. In addition, the boards of directors of listed financial services firms in Nigeria should consist of a mix of both northerners and southerners to leverage national spreads and improve firm value.
