In what ways do AI techniques propel decision-making amidst volatility? Annotated bibliography perspectives

This research presents a systematic review and approximation, from 2018 to 2023, of how Artificial Intelligence can support decision-making processes when business managers have to resolve between multiple alternatives for the development of new businesses using Agile Frameworks; and as well, will be addressed from the genesis concepts such as VUCA, Agile Mindset, Infinite Game Theory, Agile Frameworks, Innovation, Artificial Intelligence among others with the aim of identifying research gaps in the decision-making process under changing environments. Most of the analyzed studies are focused on Infinity Games theory to better understand innovation processes linked from early stages to deployment phases of products. Furthermore, this paper analyzes AI techniques for decision-making under volatile circumstances and raises 5 research questions that from a logical and chronological perspective in development are resolved during the research. It is important to highlight that AI-related solutions are typically used to make informed decisions; however, few studies adopt AI to support the decision-making process in unstable environments.

Vulnerability Detection in Intelligent Environments Authenticated by the OAuth 2.0 Protocol over HTTP/HTTPS

OAuth 2.0 provides an open secure protocol for authorizing users across the web. However, many modalities of this standard allow these protections to be implemented optionally. Thus, its use does not guarantee security by itself and some of the deployment options in the OAuth 2.0 specification can lead to incorrect settings. FIWARE is an open platform for developing Internet applications of the future. It is the result of the international entity Future Internet Public-Private Partnership. [1,2] FIWARE was designed to provide a broad set of API to stimulate the development of new businesses in the context of the European Union. This platform can be understood as a modular structure to reach a broad spectrum of applications such as IoT, big data, smart device management, security, open data, and virtualization, among others. Regarding security, the exchange of messages between its components is done through the OAuth 2.0 protocol. The objective of the present work is to create a system that allows the detection and analysis of vulnerabilities of OAuth 2.0, executed on HTTP/HTTPS in an on-premise development environment focused on the management of IoT devices and to help developers to implement them ensuring security for these environments. Through the system proposed by this paper, it was possible to find vulnerabilities in FIWARE components in HTTP/HTTPS environments. With this evidence, mitigations were proposed based on the mandatory recommendations by the IETF.

A Part of, or Apart from, Me?: Linking Dynamic Founder-Venture Identity Relationships to New Venture Strategy

Based on a three-year inductive field study of first-time founders, we reveal the dynamic identity relationships that tie founders to their ventures: what such relationships comprise, how they evolve over time, and with what strategic implications for the development of new businesses. Specifically, we found that such relationships comprise both identification and construals, which capture the degree to which founders saw their ventures as self-defining and founder-venture psychological distance. Construals, and shifts in construals over time, were critical in explaining how entrepreneurs handled venture-related challenges, as well as how they strategically (re)focused their ventures in terms of scope, whether by diversifying or specializing. By explaining these dynamics, we contribute to research on entrepreneurial identity as well as to construal level theory. In addition, as we distinguish construals from identification, we highlight the importance of construals for understanding identity relationships beyond entrepreneurship.

Role of Artificial Intelligence in case of Micro Enterprises and Tribal Entrepreneurships for Sustainable Economic Development

INTRODUCTION: Tribal entrepreneurship can be understood as infusing the knowledge of commerce and trade into the tribal groups and thereby exploring their products and known for their economic betterment and social advancement. An accumulating body of research has demonstrated that artificial intelligence (AI) is an indistinguishable feature of the fourth industrial revolution. This study integrates the literature on AI and new technologies to examine the constraining and facilitating forces for developing and scaling-up AI-enabling technologies in Africa. This article proposes an integrated conceptual model to elucidate the range of external drivers encompassing global competitive drivers, and market and industry drivers. The internal drivers include the potential to enhance product development speed, improve quality, drive production cost down, and minimise errors and manual processes in organisations. 
 OBJECTIVES: In this study, socio-economic status of tribal population has been taken as a reference in order to see whether there is any impact of economic wellbeing on their livelihood [1]. The study is an endeavour to examine the role of micro enterprises for social and economic empowerment of tribal community in Odisha and Andhra Pradesh and role of AI.
 RESULTS: The main results obtained in this paper are the following SEM identified that there is a lower degree of positive impact of “Tribal entrepreneurship” on “Economic Empowerment” and “women Empowerment” and lower degree of negative impact on “Social Empowerment”. It is also concluded that Economic Empowerment of tribal entrepreneurs through micro-enterprises has reduced the dependency on private money lenders the most. Women Empowerment of tribal entrepreneurs has helped the women to achieve gender equality and the social Empowerment aids in the development of competency and technical skills through micro-enterprises.
 CONCLUSION: The tribal communities in Odisha are regarded as the most disadvantageous group of people in terms of their socio-economic status. The present research makes some pivotal contributions to the current AI literature. First, in spite of the growing recognition that development of new industries and new-business development is increasingly predicated on the adoption of new technologies (Krasniqi and Hajrizi Citation2016), there is a paucity of studies examining contemporary challenges faced by developing nations and their inability to capitalise on such ample and obvious opportunities.

CHICORY FOR PROCESSING – A CROP FOR THE FUTURE

The paper presents the results of many studies that highlight the importance of this plant for health and nutrition. According to the research studies, chicory is an alternative to coffee, for the development of new ingredients for food and beverages, food supplements, fodder and feed for animals. An analysis of the evolution of areas and yields in chicory destined to processing in Europe reveals an increasing interest only for a limited number of producers. Although this crop is not grown in Romania, chicory production represents an opportunity for producers in our country, being a plant specific to the temperate climate. It also represents an opportunity for the development of new businesses in its processing. In the future, organic chicory production will respond to the requirements of the Farm to Fork Strategy, but also of consumers, fact confirmed by the increasing organic imports in the EU.

Characterisation of Youth Entrepreneurship in Medellín-Colombia Using Machine Learning

The aim of this paper is to identify profiles of young Colombian entrepreneurs based on data from the “Youth Entrepreneurship” survey developed by the Colombian Youth Secretariat. Our research results show five profiles of entrepreneurs, mainly differentiated by age and entrepreneurial motives, as well as the identification of relevant skills, capacities, and capabilities for entrepreneurship, such as creativity, learning, and leadership. The sample consists of 633 young people aged between 14 and 28 years in Medellín. The data treatment was approached through cluster analysis using the K-means algorithm to obtain information about the underlying nature and structure of the data. These data analysis techniques provide valuable information that can help to better understand the behaviour of Colombian entrepreneurs. They also reveal hidden information in the data. Therefore, one of the advantages of using statistical and artificial intelligence techniques in this type of study is to extract valuable information that might otherwise go unnoticed. The clusters generated show correlations with profiles that can support the design of policies in Colombia to promote an entrepreneurial ecosystem and the creation and development of new businesses through business regulation.

THE EFFECT OF INFLATION ON ENTREPRENEURIAL DEVELOPMENT IN ANAMBRA STATE, NIGERIA

Entrepreneurship has become a widespread feature of the business environment throughout the years. It may favor national economies and is often regarded as one of the critical engines of economic growth and employment creation. Understanding the potential reasons for diversity in entrepreneurial development is thus critical for assisting the government and policymakers in adopting acceptable policies to support the creation and development of new businesses. In recent years, Nigeria's volatile economic reality, characterized by financial crises, has impacted entrepreneurship development. Thus, this paper investigated the effect of inflation on entrepreneurial development among youths in Anambra State, Nigeria. A convenience sample of three hundred and twenty-two undergraduates pooled from five tertiary institutions in the southeast participated in the study. The study result indicates that the assumption that the inflation would significantly and positively predict entrepreneurial development in Anambra State was confirmed at ? = .169, p< .05. Thus, the R2 indicated that the increasing inflation in the country contributes about 23.8% variation in entrepreneurial development in Anambra State, Nigeria. The study has implications for the development of entrepreneurship in Nigeria.

Analysis of Informatization on Economic Development of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area

The construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is a momentous national development strategy for China. In recent years, the cities in that area have been investigating new paths for connectivity. The “9+2” cities empower each other, and enrich the connotation of the principle of “one country, two systems”. The Greater Bay Area policy also plays an important role in global economic and cross-cultural communication. Informationization will be a key point in promoting and facilitating economic integration throughout the Greater Bay Area. This paper analyzed the impact of informationization on the economic development of the Greater Bay Area by testing two variables which are the number of mobile phone year-end subscribers, and the number of Internet broadband access subscribers. The results showed that the Internet broadband access subscribers significantly contribute to the economic growth, however, the number of cell phone year-end users failed to showed any significant correlation. The result indicates that there is a long-term and stable relationship between the level of Internet development (expressed by the number of Internet broadband access users), and economic development in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, which means informationization can support the economic growth of the region. This paper also provides some policy recommendations based on these four areas, which are, optimizing and upgrading the construction of information infrastructure, strengthening investment in new-generation information infrastructure, promoting the expansion of bandwidth at international Internet entrances and exits, and proposing the development of new businesses in the digital economy.

The global progress empowers the development of new business and expansion of existing business. The availability of sufficient accounting professional are necessary to manage and document the business activities. However, youth are less inclined to purse accounting as profession to keep the progress of global and local economic development. The current study aimed to explore the formation of the intention to pursue Certified Professional Accountancy Qualification (CPAQ) with factor of capabilities, career opportunities, job security with respect to the extended theory of planned behavior (TPB), i.e., attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control. The study adopted a cross-sectional design and collected quantitative data from a total of 339 accounting students from Malaysia using an online survey. The finding revealed that capabilities and career opportunities influenced the students’ intention to pursue CPAQ. Meanwhile, perceived behavioral control had significantly affect the students’ decision to pursue CPAQ, which is in line with the TPB. The study concentrated on the importance of these factors in influencing the students’ intention and decision to pursue CPAQ. The study offered vital implications for accounting educators and educational institutions to promote the accounting profession as choice and students engage in pursuing CPAQ. The Malaysian government should encourage and support accounting students financially for pursuing CPAQ by providing job security and enhancing subjective norms that may enable these students to complete the required professional qualifications. The study’s limitations and future research opportunities are documented at the end of this article.

Analysis and Estimation of Economic Influence of IoT and Telecommunication in Regional Media Based on Evolution and Electronic Markets in Romania

The interconnection of devices, intended to collect and transmit data via the Internet, is called the Internet of Things (IoT). This technology has the potential to revolutionize both the economic and industrial sectors, especially in terms of data confidentiality and information security. New media, with a merger between those two, have increasingly replaced traditional media, but many researchers characterize them as two distinct but interconnected types of media. From the traditional media, with its technological evolution, the IoT has supported the development of the media through the emergence of applications, websites, and social networks designed to spread information worldwide. This research focuses on how the IoT has the ability to influence economic growth by trying to determine the impact of the IoT through theories and the evolution of economic growth. Thus, the concept of the IoT is interdependent on information and communications technology and, from an economic point of view, is correlated with productivity. In addition, the processes that have an impact on the media are those of an economic nature, all of which are interconnected with progress, innovation, and the promotion of goods and services. At the same time, this paper aims to determine the correlation between IoT and the economy, with a focus on the media, which has the main result of the development of new businesses. Thus, a bibliometric analysis of the scientific papers on the Web of Science platform regarding the IoT field was performed, in order to identify the current state of knowledge in this field. The results of this analysis highlighted that both the IoT and the economy are shaped by innovation, opportunities, and development.

ЦИФРОВІЗАЦІЯ ПОСЛУГ ВАНТАЖНИХ ПІДПРИЄМСТВ

The process of introduction of digital technologies in the process of cargo transportation were investigated. The process of implementing digital technologies is associated with certain competitive risks: on the one hand, there is a tendency to consolidate the market and the emergence of large multimodal transportation companies, which can lead to the abuse of a dominant position. On the other hand, now the industry can include companies that do not have a transport base, but only have an effective application platform. Regulators need to take into account new trends and develop their own services to obtain timely and reliable information about the state of competition in the market. The introduction of digital technologies leads to the emergence and development of new businesses and changes in competition in existing product markets. The field of freight, which existed before the fourth industrial revolution, also faced the need for strong changes in the digital transformation: changed the companies themselves, internal rules of conduct, ways of interaction between them and with regulators. Measures of economic regulation should take into account new trends in the development of industries and promote (or at least not hinder) further development, especially in key areas of the economy. Such areas include the transport sector, which is strategically important to support to improve the country's investment climate. Digitization, on the one hand, provides additional benefits for large market players, which can create barriers to entry, but on the other hand, it allows players to enter from "neighboring" markets through integrated services. Regulators need to take into account the application of such innovations, adapt legislation to reduce the risk of regulation and apply the experience of foreign countries. The subject of the study is the actual digitization and provision of digitization services in the circle of freight companies, as well as the tools that must be used. The object of research is digitalization services and their relevance today.
