Abstract

Background. The emergence of the platform economy—characterized by gig work, algorithmic management, and digital intermediation—has profoundly challenged traditional labor law frameworks. Conventional legal categories such as “employee” and “employer” often fail to capture the complexity of work relationships within platform-based environments. As a result, workers engaged in ride-sharing, food delivery, and other digital services are frequently excluded from fundamental labor protections, including minimum wage, social security, and collective bargaining rights. Purpose. This study aims to critically examine how platform-mediated work disrupts existing labor law norms and to propose a normative reconfiguration that reflects the evolving nature of work. Method. The study involved 288 university students from Chinese, Japanese, and Korean TFL settings, and the data from questionnaires were analysed using appropriate statistical methods. Results. The findings reveal widespread legal fragmentation, insufficient protection for platform workers, and a growing tension between labor flexibility and social security. Conclusion. The study concludes that a redefinition of labor status and regulatory categories is essential for restoring legal coherence and ensuring just working conditions in the platform economy. A hybrid regulatory model integrating digital rights with labor standards is proposed as a pathway forward.

Abstract

The evolution of dynamic storytelling in game design has been significantly influenced by advances in procedural generation techniques, allowing for the creation of adaptive and player-driven narratives. While traditional narratives in games follow a linear path, procedural generation enables stories to evolve based on player choices, offering unique and personalized experiences. This research aims to explore the potential of procedural narrative generation in enhancing player engagement and learning outcomes in educational games. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative analysis of player engagement, knowledge retention, and problem-solving abilities with qualitative insights from participant interviews. A total of 240 participants were divided into three groups: those who interacted with games featuring fully procedural narratives, semi-procedural narratives, and traditional static narratives. The results show that players in the fully procedural narrative group demonstrated higher levels of engagement and cognitive performance, particularly in knowledge retention and problem-solving. These findings indicate that procedural narratives can significantly enhance player immersion and educational outcomes, providing a more interactive and personalized gaming experience. The study concludes that the integration of procedural generation in narrative design offers a promising avenue for improving educational game design, fostering deeper engagement and more effective learning.

Abstract

The global energy transition requires novel, equitable financing models for decentralized, community-owned renewable energy (CORE) systems, as high-cost conventional capital often renders essential infrastructure projects financially unviable in developing regions. This study aims to develop and validate a bespoke Techno-Economic Model (TEM) that quantifies the structural benefits of integrating a CORE cooperative with the perpetual, non-profit Waqf (Islamic Endowment) financing mechanism. A quantitative approach utilized the TEM to optimize a 25-year microgrid project lifespan, comparing a Waqf-funded scenario (zero cost of capital, 30% mandatory asset preservation fund) against a Conventional Debt Benchmark (CDB) with an 8.5% interest rate. The optimized 250 kWp PV/500 kWh BESS Waqf-CORE system achieved a Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) of 0.081/kWh, which is 35.2% lower than the CDB’s LCOE of 0.125/kWh. This cost reduction equated to a 1.83 million capital avoidance over the project’s Net Present Cost (NPC). The Waqf model fundamentally eliminates debt-related overheads and ensures perpetual asset maintenance, proving that patient, ethical capital is structurally superior for long-duration public utility infrastructure. This offers a robust, scalable, and self-sustaining blueprint for achieving energy access and climate resilience in Muslim-majority nations and beyond.
