Abstract

In today's economic development, business transformation is a key characteristic of the process, as a result of the speed of technological change, digitalization, and the increasing globalisation of production systems. The manufacturing sector is under growing pressure to embrace new technological paradigms like advanced automation, data-driven production, and interconnected ecosystems. In this changing context, the term 'industrial maturity' has become important as a tool to analyse the development of industries from simple production systems to more complex, resilient and innovative systems. The concept of industrial maturity is still not well developed in the academic literature, especially in the explanation of the relationship between capability development and business transformation, despite its increased significance. This study revisits and conceptualizes industrial maturity by combining the concepts of capability theory, the resource-based view, and the literature on business model innovation to understand how technological resources and organizational capabilities can be the drivers of industrial transformation. The paper suggests a conceptual framework that presents industrial maturity as an evolutionary outcome of a combination of technology-driven resources, capability development, and business transformation. Technology-driven resources resemble the technological components of infrastructures, human resources, knowledge assets, and organization that facilitate industrial development. Capability accumulation is the ability of firms to implement, adapt, and deploy these resources effectively. Business transformation is the strategic reconfiguration of capabilities, assets, and business models in response to technological change. The proposed framework emphasizes that industrial maturity is not just a matter of technological adoption but a gradual evolution process that requires technological resource building, strategic adaptation, and ecosystem integration. More mature industries have more advanced technological capacities, adaptive business systems, and more robust innovation networks. This study brings a conceptual approach to the literature on industrial development and lays the groundwork for future empirical studies on business transformation in the digital economy.

Abstract

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education is a growing global priority, particularly in addressing digital competencies and improving teaching quality. However, Nigeria faces significant challenges in adopting AI due to inadequate infrastructure, investment, and skilled personnel. This chapter discusses the potential of waqf (Islamic endowment) as a sustainable funding strategy to support AI in education, focusing on infrastructure, policy alignment, and long-term sustainability. It highlights traditional waqf's historical role in financing education and proposes a waqf-based financing model that incorporates infrastructural development, governance frameworks, and sustainability. This research employs a qualitative and conceptual layout focused on Islamic social finance literature and artificial intelligence in education and infrastructural development in Nigeria. It uses a comparative analysis of successful waqf-based educational financing models from selected Muslim countries, proposing a conceptual framework for a waqf financing model that integrates infrastructure development, policy alignment, governance structures, and sustainability mechanisms for AI in education. This approach aims to reposition waqf to support digital transformation, reduce educational inequality, and promote sustainable educational advancement in Nigeria. The model aims to bridge the digital divide through well-targeted waqf investments, promoting equitable access to education. It also calls for regulatory support for waqf integration into national strategies and emphasizes governance transparency. By fostering human capital development among educators and addressing ethical concerns, waqf initiatives can ensure responsible AI integration. The chapter draws insights from successful waqf models in other countries to advocate for a strategic reorientation of Islamic finance to meet technological needs in Nigeria’s education system, ultimately fostering educational innovation and sustainable development.

Abstract

The ecological crisis caused by illegal deforestation has resulted in severe soil degradation, biodiversity loss, and disruption of ecosystem balance. Eco-Green Catalys emerges as an adaptive biotechnological innovation integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) to accelerate the restoration of post-deforestation lands. This system operates through an intelligent distribution network of generative mycorrhizal spores, which precisely controls inoculation, moisture regulation, and nutrient delivery based on real-time soil data analysis. Supported by a Spatio-Temporal Deep Learning (STDL-AI) framework, the system demonstrates up to 96% accuracy in ecological monitoring, enhances vegetation recovery rates by 70%, and increases carbon sequestration capacity by 35% compared to conventional restoration methods. Beyond ecological rehabilitation, this innovation reinforces the principles of restorative bio-economy by utilizing renewable energy sources and community-based participation, aligning with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 13) on climate action and long-term ecological resilience. Overall, Eco-Green Catalys provides a scalable and data-driven model that bridges environmental technology and socio-economic sustainability in restoring tropical ecosystems.

Abstract

This study explores the growing phenomena of cryptocurrency participation among Muslim women in Bauchi, Nigeria, including mining, trading, and related financial activities, and looks at how it affects their financial situation. Digital currencies are revolutionizing financial inclusion on a global scale by giving excluded groups access to alternative investment and income-generating alternatives. However, there is still little research on the use of cryptocurrencies in low-income environments, particularly among culturally restricted populations. This study uses a mixed-methods approach that includes surveys, focus groups, and in-depth interviews with 300 Muslim women involved in e-currency ecosystems. It draws on adaptive diffusion theory and socio-economic inclusion frameworks. The results show that trading cryptocurrencies, especially peer-to-peer (P2P) exchanges, has helped users diversify their sources of income, improve their financial independence, and lessen the effects of inflation and currency devaluation. Despite being limited by capital and energy expenses, mining operations have also given some participants access to specialized revenue sources. The study also highlights important mediators of economic impact, such as financial literacy, access to digital infrastructure, social network support, Islamic ethical considerations around risk and riba, and digital literacy. Concerns regarding market volatility, unclear regulations, and inadequate institutional protections endure despite favorable economic consequences. In addition to providing policy suggestions for inclusive financial literacy programs, community-based regulatory guidelines, and gender-responsive digital economy strategies, the research advances our understanding of the adoption of digital finance in culturally particular contexts.

Abstract

Patient safety is a key component of quality management systems in healthcare services. At the primary healthcare level, the implementation of patient safety systems often faces various challenges, such as limited human resources, organizational culture, clinical leadership, and suboptimal incident reporting systems. Community clinics play a strategic role in providing safe, effective, and high-quality healthcare services for the community. This study aims to examine the implementation of quality management and patient safety at the Baitul Qurro School Clinic. It also seeks to identify barriers and supporting factors in the implementation of patient safety, as well as to explore the experiences of healthcare workers in implementing service quality systems. This research employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation of service processes, and review of the clinic’s quality documents. The research informants consisted of healthcare workers and clinic managers involved in patient care and quality management. Data analysis was conducted using thematic analysis to identify key themes related to organizational structure, service processes, and patient safety outcomes. The results show that the implementation of patient safety is influenced by several key factors, including leadership commitment, the availability of standard operating procedures, communication among healthcare workers, and the incident reporting system. Limited resources and the lack of structured training were identified as barriers to the optimal implementation of patient safety systems. This study highlights the importance of strengthening the patient safety culture at the primary healthcare level through the integration of quality management systems, capacity building for healthcare workers, and the reinforcement of professional ethical values based on Al-Islam and Kemuhammadiyahan.

Abstract

This article presents a conceptual co-creation model of digital learning between universities and learning hubs in organizing online lectures as a strategy to increase literacy access in underdeveloped urban areas. The background of this study comes from initial observations conducted at Darulfunun Payakumbuh, a community-based institution that has facilitated students from various universities to take online lectures with the support of study rooms, connectivity, and mentoring. In the context of limited infrastructure and learning facilities at home, a collaboration between higher education institutions and digital learning centers such as Darulfunun is a potential solution to overcome the gap in access to education. This study uses a conceptual approach by combining the principles of co-creation (co-initiation, co-design, co-delivery, co-reflection) and the Customer Satisfaction framework, especially the expectation-perception-reaction model towards digital learning services. The discussion is directed at the design of shared facilities, adaptive collaboration mechanisms, and measuring student satisfaction with the quality and access to online lecture services. This study produces a conceptual model that can be used as a reference for further research and development of community-based higher education policies, with implications for increasing digital literacy and equality of access to higher education in marginalized areas.

Abstract

The general problem of the difficulty of developing pondok pesantren is due to limited resources and an inaccurate interpretation of the position of pondok pesantren, in particular the improved management of the national education system and the 2019 UU No. 18 about Pesantren. The development of a student financial management system was carried out at PPM Perguruan Darulfunun El-Abbasiyah (Lima Puluh Kota, Sumatera Barat) using TDR-IM approach: 1) integration, 2) simplification, and 3) digitization. As a result of development, we have seen a significant increase in TDR components, especially data management components. The development of this student financial management system will improve the efficiency of operations and record keeping. This increase has also led to a more accountable and transparent student finance system. This student financial management system development also provides effective services, giving students and their legal guardians a planning guarantee for administrative expenses. The biggest obstacle in developing this financial management system is low literacy in general, especially in financial and technology literacy.

Abstract

Education plays a key role in shaping the character of the nation's children. In today's digital era, technology has great potential to improve education and develop children's character. This research aims to explain how the utilisation of technology in education can be an effective means to improve the character of the nation's children. The research involves a literature analysis to explore the role of technology in the context of character education. The findings show that the integration of technology into the curriculum can facilitate more interactive learning, present moral challenges, and increase student engagement. In addition, the use of technology can help develop critical skills, cooperation and problem-solving, all of which are important aspects of character. However, this research also underlines the need for a balanced approach. While technology provides benefits, character education still requires a holistic approach involving social interaction, cultural values and balanced personality development. Therefore, this research provides insights into how technology can be positively integrated into the education curriculum to improve the character of the nation's children. The results of this research are expected to provide practical guidance for educators, policymakers and curriculum makers in developing educational strategies that focus on the character of the nation's children through the utilisation of technology. Thus, it is expected to realise a young generation that is not only technologically competent but also has a strong character that can face global challenges with integrity and leadership.

Abstract

The process of managing student data which is still manual makes the governance of educational institutions less than optimal. Often invalid input data and unsynchronized data are caused by the unavailability of a good system for managing it. This makes management unable to create transparency in internal processes, so it will take a lot of time and energy. This article is a technical report on the implementation of the website-based student information system design process. This implementation was carried out at Darulfunun El-Abbasiyah College from January 2019 to July 2023. This implementation process involved many stages of development and improved versions. This system is also tested directly in management and receives input to be improved and then tested again. The development of the student information system helps supervision, avoiding misuse and inaccuracy of information. This student information system also reduces misunderstandings with parents, guardians, religious ministries and education offices due to data that is inaccurate or cannot be presented within a certain time.
