The advent of the World Wide Web and rapid adoption social media platforms (such as Facebook Twitter) paved way for information dissemination that has never been witnessed in human history before. With current usage platforms, consumers are creating sharing more than ever before, some which misleading with no relevance to reality. Automated classification a text article misinformation or disinformation is challenging task. Even an expert particular domain explore multiple aspects before...
Industry 4.0 has been identified as a major contributor to the era of digitalisation. Its implications for sustainable development have gained widespread attention from perspectives triple bottom line, business models and circular economy. The purpose this paper is map broad field investigate key research areas which comprises aforementioned under framework. A systematic mapping review was conducted by searching five databases relevant literature published between January 1, 2012 April 17,...
Vegetable and fruit plants facilitate around 7.5 billion people the globe, playing a crucial role in sustaining life on planet. The rapid increase use of chemicals such as fungicides bactericides to curtail plant diseases is causing negative effects agro-ecosystem. high scale prevalence crops affects production quantity quality. Solving problem early identification/diagnosis by exploiting quick consistent reliable method will benefit farmers. In this context, our research work focuses...
As the dyad of Industry 4.0 (I4.0) and innovation have gained greater attention from researchers, practitioners policy makers, integration sustainability sustainable development paradigms to this become fundamental sustain businesses’ competitive advantage. A variety I4.0 based innovations with several implications exists in literature, but they largely address independent distinct knowledge areas, which yields an opportunity explore interconnections I4.0-innovation-sustainability nexus....
Using of Kanban in software development is an emerging topic. This systematic literature review was conducted order to analyze the current trend usage and identify obtained benefits involved challenges. The search strategy resulted 492 papers, which 19 were identified as primary studies relevant our research. main reported using method improved lead time deliver software, quality communication coordination, increased consistency delivery, decreased customer defects. challenges included lack...
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the factors that enable end‐user adoption e‐government services in Pakistan, where these facilities are at a rudimentary stage. Design/methodology/approach Following previous research on adoption, study employs Unified Theory Acceptance and Use Technology (UTAUT) model examine influential use Pakistan from citizen perspective. An online survey was conducted statistical descriptive analysis performed responses received 115 Pakistani citizens....
ABSTRACT Agile methods have become a standard practice within software industry, with organizations increasingly adopting large‐scale agile (LSA) frameworks. However, as these frameworks are implemented across multiple teams and organizational functions, new challenges emerge, particularly in maintaining alignment, coherence, collaboration teams. One crucial element addressing is fostering of culture continuous learning psychological safety, the objective optimizing team performance ensuring...
Industry needs graduates from universities having knowledge and skills to tackle the practical issues of real life software development. To facilitate engineering students fulfill industry need, Department Information Processing Science, University Oulu, Finland, built a Software Factory laboratory (SWF) in 2012 based on Lean concept. This study examines factors SWF learning environment that affect course by students. It employs amended Computer Environment Inventory (CLEI) Attitude towards...
Organizational debt (OD) is a major challenge to software organizations that seek maintain agility, adaptability and sustainable competitiveness in the dynamic business environment. OD can be refers suboptimal decisions, outdated procedures, misaligned structures cultural barriers limit an organization?s ability adapt innovate quickly. This multifaceted process includes several factors, including ineffective workflows, knowledge silos, issues, inadequate resource utilization. When are...
Software companies are increasingly moving to use Kanban after Scrum since claimed offer improved project visibility, software quality, team motivation, communication and collaboration. However, empirical studies needed verify these effects companies' real motivation for the transition. In particular, underlying reasons leading start using in maintenance must be understood. A multiple-case study was conducted investigate why two experienced teams transitioned Kanban. We 17 semi-structured...
Abstract In software engineering, technical debt (TD) has been widely investigated, but regarding social issues, people, and processes not explored as much. It should be noted here that we use nontechnical (NTD) an umbrella term to cover social, process, people debts . Although the number of studies on NTD in is increasing, majority them are descriptive rather than rigorous, there no systematic development cumulative knowledge. As a result, identifying fundamental causes associated...
Seismic activity prediction has been a challenging research domain: in this regard, accurate using historical data is an intricate task. Numerous machine learning and traditional approaches have presented lately for seismic prediction; however, no generalizable model exists. In work, we consider predication as binary classification problem, propose deep neural network architecture the from Chile, Hindukush, Southern California. After obtaining three regions, cleaning process was used, which...
The development of software and systems is a complex task that involves social, technical organisational factors. Technical debt well-known concept refers to the negative consequences taking shortcuts in development. However, (OD) less phenomenon arises due structure processes organisation. lack clearly defined OD makes it difficult identify manage this type debt. This study presents multi-vocabulary literature review consolidates an understanding nature its impact on organisations....
Reflective learning diaries can help students develop self-regulated (SRL), a critical skill for success. For teachers such be valuable tool formative evaluation of SRL. However, there is limited research on the use reflective in software engineering and information systems education. To address this gap, we conducted case study which were used course. The goal to investigate potential using formatively evaluate three key features SRL: conceptions knowledge, learning, strategies monitoring...
This paper explores the relationship between self-organisation and tailored roles in large agile software development teams.The case study examines a Swedish IT company that has introduced role of "Security Master" Scrum teams are developing very secure 5G solution.Twenty semi-structured interviews were conducted deductively analysed.The results shed light on Security Master role, its need, responsibilities impact coding.The concludes with discussion lessons learned recommendations for...
Purpose This paper seeks to examine how expectations from business analytics (BA) by members of agile information systems development (ISD) teams affect their perceptions and continuous use BA in ISD projects. Design/methodology/approach Data was collected 153 respondents working projects analysed using partial least squares structural equation modelling techniques (PLS-SEM). Findings Perceived usefulness technological compatibility are the most salient factors that continuance intention The...
Advances in technical debt research demonstrate the benefits of applying financial metaphor to support decision-making software development activities. Although during requirements engineering has significant consequences, is inadequately explored. We aim conceptualize how applies by organizing concepts related practitioners' understanding and managing (RED). conducted two in-depth expert interviews identify key construct a survey instrument. surveyed 69 practitioners worldwide regarding...
