Abstract

This study investigates the influence of device compatibility and IoT system architecture on adoption rates and ease of use in smart home implementation within modern housing developments in Tangerang, Indonesia. Employing a quantitative research approach, data were collected from 125 respondents using a structured questionnaire measured on a five-point Likert scale. The data were analyzed through Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS 3) to test the relationships among constructs. The results reveal that both device compatibility and IoT system architecture significantly and positively influence ease of use, which in turn mediates their effects on adoption rates. A robust IoT system architecture enhances interoperability and system responsiveness, improving user perceptions of convenience and reliability. The findings underscore that technical design and user-centric system integration jointly determine the success of smart home adoption. This research contributes to extending the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) within the IoT context and offers practical implications for developers, policymakers, and housing planners in fostering inclusive and sustainable smart living environments in Indonesia.

Abstract

Financial inclusion, crucial for equitable economic development, remains a pivotal focus area in global development discourse. Microfinance, an essential component of financial inclusion strategies, aims to provide financial services to marginalized communities, thereby fostering economic empowerment. This study conducts a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the scholarly literature on microfinance and economic development initiatives. By systematically reviewing and synthesizing a vast array of academic publications, including journal articles, conference proceedings, and book chapters, this study identifies key themes, trends, and research gaps in the field. The analysis encompasses publication trends, citation patterns, thematic clusters, author collaboration networks, and emerging research directions. Findings highlight the evolution of microfinance from its origins to its contemporary applications, with a shift in research emphasis from theoretical underpinnings to practical implementations and regional applications. Moreover, the study identifies underexplored research avenues, such as the role of education in financial inclusion, the impact of microcredit services in specific regions, and regulatory environments for small and medium-sized enterprises. The author collaboration network reveals both robust collaborative clusters and opportunities for new collaborations, reflecting the dynamic and interconnected nature of scholarly engagement in this domain. Ultimately, this study informs evidence-based policy formulation, program design, and academic inquiry, contributing to more effective and sustainable interventions aimed at promoting financial inclusion and fostering economic growth on a global scale.

Abstract

The intricate relationship between culture and sustainable development has emerged as a focal point of scholarly inquiry and policy discourse in an era marked by increasing globalization and interconnectedness. Culture, encompassing beliefs, values, customs, traditions, and social norms, plays a fundamental role in shaping individuals' perceptions, behaviors, and interactions with the environment. However, the nuanced influence of culture on sustainable development remains underexplored, leading to fragmented literature and disparate thematic focuses. To address this gap, this research conducts a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to elucidate the multifaceted role of culture in sustainable development. Through the identification of key thematic areas, trends, and patterns within the existing literature, this study aims to pinpoint gaps and emerging areas of interest for future research endeavors. The insights gleaned from this analysis can inform evidence-based policymaking and contribute to the development of inclusive, culturally sensitive approaches to sustainable development.
