Abstract Recent developments in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) have enabled new paradigms machine processing, shifting from data-driven, discriminative AI tasks toward sophisticated, creative through generative AI. Leveraging deep models, is capable producing novel and realistic content across a broad spectrum (e.g., texts, images, or programming code) for various domains based on basic user prompts. In this article, we offer comprehensive overview fundamentals with its...

The booming adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) likewise poses benefits and challenges. In this paper, we particularly focus on the bright side AI its promising potential to face our society’s grand Given potential, different studies have already conducted valuable work by conceptualizing specific facets sustainability, including reviews Information Systems (IS) research or business values. Nonetheless, there is still little holistic knowledge at intersection IS, AI, sustainability....

Platform ecosystems have captured a variety of markets, enabling coordination, transactions, and value co-creation between independent actors. A focal platform constitutes the central nexus e-commerce fosters interaction among ecosystem participants through their boundary resources. Standardizing these interfaces simplifies entry for developers increases number propelling network effects, thus overall ecosystem. Currently, there is lack prescriptive design knowledge guiding owners in...

Although our digitalized society is able to foster social inclusion and integration, there are still numerous communities suffering from inequality. This also the case with deaf people. About 750,000 people in European Union over 4 million United States face daily challenges terms of communication participation. occurs not only leisure activities but also, more importantly, emergency situations. To provide equal environments allow hearing handicaps communicate their native language, this...

Abstract Car manufacturers and suppliers in the Automotive industry increasingly face issue of optimization highly complex supply chains that need to accommodate each customer's precise demands, requiring a vast array parts information be available at right place time. This involves data sharing between organizations, which is hindered by various issues, such as fear misappropriation receiver or involuntary disclosure business secrets. The paper proposes design principles for novel type...

Pricing is a significant component in determining digital platforms' strategic and financial position. Informed decisions concerning how to price industrial platforms require an integrated holistic view that organizes heterogeneous pricing options. Given the complexity of pricing, we build taxonomy based on systematic literature review advance our understanding key characteristics as well help researchers practitioners navigate vast solution space decision

Richard Feynman’s visionary lecture at Caltech, which dates back more than half a century, is regarded as the birth of today's nanotechnology. Over time, many nanotechnology-based approaches, methods, and innovations have been adopted in almost all research disciplines. This nano-centered evolution currently transforming traditional paradigm Internet Things into Nano Things. However, focus here not on mere adaptation down scaling instead primarily effects characteristics that result from...

Abstract The increasing online competition, associated changes in customer behaviors, and effects of the pandemic recent years have led to retail store closures. This development has given rise a downward spiral terms decreasing attractiveness local shopping places further reduction stores. Research recognized that smart services can unleash potential compensate for competitive disadvantages physical retailers by combining tailored digital offerings enhance customer-oriented value creation....

Self-tracking solutions have become globally widespread, as they promise numerous advantages (e.g. improving health) to their users. Despite benefits, such are often abandoned due quality issues. This phenomenon can also be observed for digitized products in general. As self-tracking hybrid products, combining digital and physical components, traditional domain-independent abstract models like the prominent ISO 25000 standard seem not cover an appropriate way. We address these issues by...

The Internet of Everything refers to a computing concept that allows all objects, living and inanimate, physical virtual, be connected the so these are able identify themselves other devices engage in seamless automatic data exchange:As fundamental part it, Things is receiving more attention among researchers, especially as connecting "things" (e.g., jet engines, manufacturing equipment) steadily moves towards Gartner's Slope Enlightenment.At same time digital industrial worlds merge,...

Abstract Collaboration and value co-creation are important drivers of the continuous growth e-commerce, which is expected to reach US $6.4 trillion in 2024 despite current global crises. Only a few transaction platforms currently dominate e-commerce (eg., Amazon, Walmart), but other participants likely join these platforms’ ecosystems. Third-party developers can provide extensions ecosystems enhance functionality, third-party developers’ role ecosystems’ success generativity remains...
