Abstract

The Blue Economy represents a sustainable approach to harnessing ocean resources for economic growth while preserving marine ecosystems. This study explores the intersection of offshore renewable energy development, particularly wind and tidal energy, and marine conservation. It highlights the significance of adopting innovative technologies, such as floating wind turbines, and emphasizes the role of Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) and Ecological Modernization Theory (EMT) in balancing economic activities with environmental protection. Using qualitative research methods, including semi-structured interviews with stakeholders from renewable energy companies, conservation NGOs, policymakers, and local fishing communities, this study reveals key themes related to policy gaps, innovative solutions, and the necessity of stakeholder collaboration. Findings indicate that existing regulatory frameworks often inadequately address ecological impacts, creating inconsistencies between energy development and conservation efforts. However, advancements in technology and collaborative approaches show promise for minimizing environmental disruption. The research underscores the need for stronger regulatory frameworks that integrate marine conservation into energy development plans. It advocates for community involvement in decision-making processes and the adoption of eco-friendly technologies. By aligning regulatory practices with sustainable development principles, the study presents a pathway toward achieving a balanced Blue Economy, ensuring both economic prosperity and the health of marine ecosystems for future generations. Future research areas are identified to further enhance understanding of the long-term impacts and effective management strategies in this critical field.

Abstract

The digital age has transformed the way individuals live, work, and interact, with innovations like artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT) reshaping industries and societies. This study examines the key obstacles to improving digital and technology literacy and proposes strategies to bridge this gap. The research focuses on developing economies, where socio-economic, infrastructural, and educational barriers exacerbate the digital divide. Employing a qualitative literature review, the study analyzes peer-reviewed articles, reports, and case studies to identify the main challenges and successful interventions in promoting digital literacy. The novelty of this research lies in its contextual focus on developing economies, its multi-sectoral approach involving public and private collaboration, and its emphasis on tailored, lifelong learning programs. By integrating case studies and a thematic analysis of current initiatives, this study provides actionable recommendations for advancing digital and technology literacy, enabling individuals and organizations to fully participate in an increasingly digital world. Advancing digital and technology literacy is vital for closing the skills gap in today’s digital age. Despite numerous initiatives, challenges such as limited access, resistance to change, and inadequate educational programs persist. Holistic, multi-sectoral approaches are necessary to create meaningful improvements in literacy rates, contributing to social mobility and economic development. Future studies could use a quantitative approach to measure the impact of specific interventions on digital literacy. Longitudinal research could track the effectiveness of ongoing programs in different socioeconomic settings.

Abstract

One of the approaches that can be done is to perform feature selection. Feature selection is done by identifying the most informative features and not using features that do not directly contribute to the target feature. The purpose of feature selection is to increase the accuracy of the model. The research was conducted by comparing the performance of the model by comparing the accuracy results of the model without any feature selection with the model that has done feature selection. The process is done by comparing the accuracy results with decision tree, random forest and SVM algorithms. In the research method of feature selection on science data, the steps include understanding the domain and dataset, exploratory analysis, data cleaning, measuring feature relevance with criteria such as Information Gain, and feature ranking. The results are evaluated and validated using model performance metrics before and after feature selection. This process ensures selection of relevant features, improving accuracy. The research process used the Lung Cancer Prediction datasheet which consists of 306 rows and 16 attributes. The results show that feature selection can improve the performance of the classification model by reducing features that do not contribute to the target. Comparison results using decision tree, Regression Logistic and random forest classification model algorithms and feature selection resulted in a high accuracy value of 0.968 in the Regression Logistic algorithm with a feature selection of 5.

Abstract

The aim of this research is to evaluate the impact of a company's announcement, which in this case is a stock split, on the return of a company's stock listed on the Indian stock market. basing on this, the extent and significance of the effect is measured and examined through parametric and non-parametric tests. due to the aim of the paper is to test if the stock split will have a positive influence on the stock price around the implementation of the policy, we use the event study method and set regression model. In order to test the effect of the strategy, we picked estimation period and event period from each stock, and conduct regression analysis respectively. As suggested by the cumulative average AR value, the precision weighted CAAR and the ABHAR, the results imply that during the short window event of pre- and post-10 days of stock splits, the selected company have witnessed significant ARs so we reject H0 and accept H1, which suggests the presence of ARs within the event window. Similarly, other tests such as Patellz, Cross-sectional Test-t, Generalized Signz, Std. Cross-sectional Testz and Adjusted Patellz also suggest to reject H0 stating that there are ARs during the study window of the stocks splits. However, these findings are based on the 10-days event and 90-days estimation windows used for analysis and impact of the stocks splits on the stock returns of the selected company.

Abstract

This study introduces a comprehensive model that simultaneously investigates the interplay of Government Accounting Standards Implementation, Internal Control Systems, and Human Resource Competence in determining regional financial report quality. This study employs a quantitative research design. The sample size for this study is 96 respondents, meeting the minimum requirement for Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis. Only human resource competence can improve regional financial report quality. These findings align with Agency Theory, emphasizing that competent agents (human resources) are critical for reducing information asymmetry and improving financial reporting. They also connect to Institutional Theory, illustrating that formal systems like GAS and ICS require human agency to operationalize institutional norms effectively. Finally, the results support Resource-Based Theory (RBT), highlighting HRC as a strategic resource that drives organizational success in financial reporting. Future studies should explore the impact of external audits, political stability, and organizational culture on financial report quality.
