Abstract

The increasing complexity of global social and environmental challenges has intensified the need for innovative models of social entrepreneurship that move beyond conventional profit-oriented and philanthropic approaches. Game-based systems have emerged as interactive digital mechanisms capable of fostering sustained engagement, behavioral change, and collective action, yet their strategic role in social entrepreneurship remains underexplored. This study aims to examine how game-based social entrepreneurship functions as a catalyst for sustainable impact by integrating interactive design with social value creation. A qualitative multiple-case research design was employed, involving eight social enterprises that systematically utilize game-based mechanisms to address social and environmental challenges. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, document analysis, and platform engagement metrics, and analyzed using thematic and comparative techniques. The results indicate that social enterprises embedding narrative-driven gameplay, cooperative mechanics, and mission-linked feedback systems achieve higher levels of sustained user engagement, mission alignment, and impact scalability. Game-based systems were found to operate as structural infrastructures rather than supplementary engagement tools. The study concludes that game-based social entrepreneurship represents a transformative model that bridges digital innovation and sustainability, enabling social enterprises to translate participatory play into durable social impact and long-term value creation.

Abstract

The integrity of the halal food supply chain is paramount, yet it faces significant challenges from potential cross-contamination and environmental concerns associated with conventional packaging. This review examines the critical engineering innovations at this intersection, focusing on materials and systems that ensure both halal compliance and ecological responsibility. The objective is to identify key technologies, assess their compatibility with halal principles, and highlight their potential to improve supply chain integrity and sustainability. A systematic literature review was conducted using major scientific databases, including Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. The selected literature was analyzed to identify material compositions, sensor mechanisms, and their functional applications in maintaining halal integrity. The review identifies several promising innovations, including the development of biopolymer-based films (e.g., PLA, starch, chitosan) integrated with pH-sensitive and microbial spoilage indicators. These smart systems can provide real-time monitoring of food freshness and detect potential non-halal contaminants, such as ethanol or porcine derivatives, without direct contact. The findings show a strong trend towards non-invasive sensor technologies that align with the principles of tayyib (wholesome and pure). Engineering innovations in biodegradable smart packaging offer a robust solution for enhancing the security and sustainability of halal food logistics.

Abstract

Forest fires are a significant environmental issue, especially in tropical regions, where they have been known to disrupt ecosystems and hinder sustainable timber production. The increasing frequency and intensity of forest fires, driven by both natural causes and human activity, pose a major threat to forest health and biodiversity. Additionally, the economic impact on the timber industry is profound, with fires damaging forests, destroying timber resources, and reducing overall timber yields. This study investigates the effects of forest fires on timber production and forest ecosystems, focusing on their long-term consequences. This research aims to assess the impact of forest fires on timber production, as well as the broader effects on forest ecosystems, including biodiversity loss, soil degradation, and carbon emissions. The study also seeks to explore potential mitigation strategies for reducing fire risks and promoting the recovery of forest ecosystems post-fire. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining remote sensing data, field surveys, and interviews with forestry experts and local communities. The study analyzed fire-affected areas in Southeast Asia, comparing timber production data before and after fire events. Ecological indicators, such as species diversity and soil quality, were also measured to assess the impact on the forest ecosystem. The findings show a significant decline in timber production following forest fires, with affected areas showing reduced growth rates and a lower timber yield in the years after the fire. Forest ecosystems also experienced biodiversity loss, with long-term degradation of soil quality and carbon sequestration capacity. Forest fires have a substantial negative impact on both timber production and forest ecosystems. Effective fire management strategies are crucial for minimizing damage and supporting the recovery of forest resources and biodiversity.

Abstract

Sleep plays a fundamental role in the cognitive and emotional development of children, yet sleep deprivation has become increasingly common among elementary school students due to lifestyle and environmental factors. Poor sleep quality has been linked to diminished academic performance, reduced attention span, and impaired memory consolidation, all of which are essential for effective learning. This study aims to investigate the relationship between sleep quality, academic achievement, and memory consolidation processes in elementary school children. A quantitative correlational design was employed involving 280 students aged 9–12 years from three urban elementary schools. Data were collected using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and a standardized memory recall test, alongside academic records. Statistical analyses were performed using Pearson correlation and multiple regression to determine predictive relationships among variables. Findings indicated a significant positive correlation between sleep quality and both academic performance (r = 0.63, p < 0.001) and memory retention (r = 0.59, p < 0.001). Children with consistent sleep schedules and adequate rest demonstrated superior cognitive function, particularly in long-term memory tasks and problem-solving abilities. The study concludes that sufficient and high-quality sleep is a critical determinant of learning efficiency and academic success. Interventions promoting healthy sleep habits should be integrated into school health programs to support cognitive and educational outcomes.

Abstract

Advances in quantum sensing technologies have opened new opportunities for noninvasive, high-resolution detection of neural activity, particularly through diamond-based quantum sensors utilizing nitrogen–vacancy (NV) centers. Conventional neuroimaging techniques often face limitations in spatial resolution, temporal precision, and sensitivity to weak magnetic fields generated by neuronal currents. These constraints motivate the development of quantum-enhanced sensing approaches capable of capturing neural dynamics with unprecedented fidelity. This study aims to evaluate the performance of diamond-based quantum sensors for high-resolution magnetic field imaging and to assess their potential for real-time neural activity monitoring. A combined experimental and simulation-based methodology was employed, involving controlled magnetic field measurements using NV-center ensembles, calibration against established magnetometry systems, and computational modeling of neuronal magnetic signatures. The results show that NV-based sensors achieve sub-micron spatial resolution and detect magnetic fields in the nanotesla range, significantly outperforming traditional optical and electromagnetic techniques. The findings further demonstrate strong temporal responsiveness, enabling the reconstruction of fast neuronal firing patterns. The study concludes that diamond-based quantum sensors represent a promising frontier for next-generation neuroimaging, offering a scalable, minimally invasive platform for studying neural circuits with high spatial–temporal precision.

Abstract

Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) has emerged as a powerful solution for secure communication, relying on the principles of quantum mechanics to guarantee the security of transmitted keys. However, traditional QKD protocols are dependent on the trustworthiness of the devices used, which introduces vulnerabilities. Device-independent quantum key distribution (DI-QKD) eliminates this dependency, offering a higher level of security. This research explores the use of DI-QKD over long-distance fiber networks by incorporating entanglement swapping architectures to extend the reach and enhance the security of quantum key distribution systems. The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of DI-QKD over long-distance fiber-optic networks, employing entanglement swapping as a means to mitigate photon loss and noise over extended distances. The research employs both theoretical modeling and experimental validation, simulating long-distance fiber links with quantum repeaters and entanglement swapping nodes. The results demonstrate that entanglement swapping significantly extends the distance over which secure DI-QKD can be achieved, maintaining low quantum bit error rates (QBER) and high key generation rates even at distances of 200 km. The findings confirm that DI-QKD is feasible over practical fiber networks, and entanglement swapping is a key enabler for long-distance secure quantum communication.

Abstract

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education is reshaping how students interact with learning materials and take control of their educational journeys. AI-powered learning environments promise to enhance student agency by providing personalized learning experiences and immediate feedback. However, the impact of AI on student autonomy and the teacher-student dynamic remains underexplored. This study aims to investigate how AI technologies influence student agency in learning environments and how these tools empower learners to become more self-directed. A mixed-methods approach was employed, using surveys, interviews, and classroom observations across 10 schools that have adopted AI tools for learning. The results reveal that AI-powered tools significantly enhance student engagement and learning outcomes by offering personalized content, yet students expressed concerns about reduced opportunities for collaboration and human interaction. Teachers observed increased autonomy in students, but some raised concerns about AI’s potential to depersonalize the learning experience. The study concludes that while AI can effectively empower students, it is essential to strike a balance between the technological benefits and the need for human connection in the learning process. AI should complement, not replace, traditional pedagogical practices to foster a more holistic educational experience.

Abstract

The transition to a hydrogen economy is critically dependent on the development of safe and efficient onboard hydrogen storage materials. Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as highly promising candidates due to their exceptionally high surface areas and tunable pore environments. This study aimed to combine computational modeling with experimental validation to elucidate the key structural factors governing hydrogen storage capacity in MOFs. A dual approach was employed, using Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations to predict hydrogen uptake in a series of MOFs with varying pore sizes and metal centers, followed by experimental synthesis and gas sorption analysis to validate the computational findings. The results revealed a strong correlation between the simulated and experimental data, confirming that both high surface area and optimal pore size (~10-15 Å) are crucial for maximizing physisorption. The GCMC simulations accurately predicted that MOFs with open metal sites exhibit enhanced hydrogen binding energies. This research concludes that a combined computational and experimental approach provides powerful predictive insights, confirming that tailoring pore geometry and introducing strong adsorption sites are key strategies for the rational design of next-generation MOFs for high-density hydrogen storage.
