This research aims to evaluate JavaScript frontend frameworks by their performance and popularity to provide practitioners with guidance in making informed decisions when choosing frontend frameworks for their projects. For that purpose, three applications with the same features were built using three best-known JavaScript frontend frameworks: Angular, React, and Vue. Comparative analysis was employed to conduct the framework comparison using the content of the three applications. For performance evaluation, tools like PageSpeed Insights, WebPageTest, GTmetrix, Pingdom, Lighthouse, and Google Performance were used. In addition, the research also offers the overall comparison of JavaScript frameworks including documentation quality, ability to develop mobile applications, learning curve, built-in features, etc. The results indicate that while React is accepted as the most popular frontend framework, Vue is the one that offers the best performance. The research also compares JavaScript frameworks by specific features they offer such as state management and analyses the implications of these features to the development process. According to the results, these features have big implications on the development process and they are very important when we are making decisions on which framework we will choose for some project.

This paper aims to show how business intelligence can be applied in the credit card approval process. More specifically, the paper investigates how information like an applicant’s age, credit score, debt, income, and prior default can be used in credit card approval prediction.The dataset used for analysis is a publicly available dataset from the UCI machine learning repository. Logistic regression is used to make a prediction model with a reasonable number of attributes for a comprehensible business model. The Chi-square test of independence is used to test the dependence of credit card approval results with attributes. Research uncovers that prior default is supposed to be the most important attribute in the approval process. Finally, the authors propose several visualizations that could help make smarter decisions with effective credit risk assessment.

This paper demonstrates the application of business intelligence in decision-making in digital advertising through a case study. Data used for analysis was collected during a test phase of an advertising platform. The study analyzes multiple types of traffic, related to countries, browsers, household incomes, and days of a week. Beside tabular reports, the paper presents how to visualize those results using Python libraries to make them more visually appealing. Furthermore, logistic regression was used to build models to detect relationships between the number of impressions and clicks. Finally, the authors propose multiple combinations of data that could be used to create different reports that lead to smarter decision-making and cost-effectiveness.

The purpose of this research is to find the direct and/or indirect relationship between information and communications technologies (ICTs) and the economic development of transitioning countries. Specifically focusing on how technology can be used to advance a developing economy, this paper consists of conceptual background in terms of ICTs as well as a country-level analysis cross-referencing Albania, Armenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), Croatia, Serbia, and Slovenia. These countries were categorized as European Union (EU) member states and non-EU countries solely to analyze the factors that can be used to advance a transitioning economy into a developed economy. Out of the selected ICT indicators in the study, it was found that fixed telephone subscriptions, fixed broadband subscriptions, research and development expenditures, and mobile cellular subscriptions all play a significant role for an increase in gross domestic product (GDP).

This paper proposes an empirically tested model that explains the significance of project development phases for the project success, and the impact of project people on each phase. The conceptual model includes six inter-related components: project success as the ultimate target, project team, customer, and three process steps: planning, execution, and control. The empirical test was performed in the context of information systems (IS) projects. Usable data were obtained from a survey of 603 IS professionals and were analysed through structural equation modeling, factor analysis, and descriptive analysis. The results provide good empirical support for the proposed theoretical model. They reveal a significant direct relationship between project planning and control components and project success, and the indirect impact of project execution phase on the project success through mediating project control component. Furthermore, results emphasize the importance of the people aspect for successful execution of each of the introduced process steps.

This paper defines project success factors and aspects that are significant for successful project performance and outcomes, in the context of Information Technology (IT) projects. The list of total 38 factors is obtained through the qualitative content analysis of data collected via survey of 108 IT professionals, through one open-ended question. Detected factors are grouped into five categories: project team, project customer, project planning, project execution and project control. The results extend and support findings of the former quantitative study and the resulting project success model. They emphasize the significance of project team and project control activities for successful project outcomes.

Aim of this paper is to give insight in Covid 19 data and to try to predict whether individual person will recover from this virus. Furthermore, this paper aims to give some answers how information like the country, the age, and the gender of the patient, the number of cases in their country and whether they’re from or have visited Wuhan can be used to make that prediction. Study uses Novel Corona Virus (COVID-19) epidemiological dataset. Logistic regression model and Random Forest algorithm are used in order to make prediction, and the Chi-Square test of independence is used to determine if there is a significant relationship between two nominal (categorical) variables. Paper reveals that recovery/survival is supposed to depend on the age of the patient, gender and country from which patient come. Information whether the patient is from Wuhan or has visited Wuhan does not affect recovery/survival of patient.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to empirically investigate the relationship between project-specific intellectual capital (IC) and project success in the context of information technology (IT) projects. Design/methodology/approach – Using data collected from surveys of 603 IT professionals across a variety of projects, the authors constructed a structural (structural equation model) model in AMOS to examine the relationships between three dimensions of project-specific IC (project team, project customer and project process) and project success. Findings – The empirical results support the proposition that IC has a positive impact on project success, and thus may be a good indicator of future projects’ performance. More importantly, the authors found out an important mediating role of a project’s structural capital (process) in exploiting its human (team) and relational (customer) capital for realising project success. Research limitations/implications – Interpretation of current results should be c...

A contingency perspective of knowledge management recognises the need for a fit between knowledge management solutions KMS and decision making contexts which they support. In order to determine the best fit, a field survey was carried out to investigate the impact of two different types of KMS technical and social on decision makers' behaviour and performance in different decision contexts simple and complex. The results provide partial support for the contingency view. As expected, the study identified social KMS as the best fit for complex contexts, based on subjects' superior performance from comparable adoption of both KMS. In contrast, the study identified that both KMS were an equally good fit for simple contexts, based on similar levels of subjects' performance, but social KMS was preferred in terms of adoption. These findings contribute to much needed empirical evidence for research and provide useful guidance for practice. However, their limitations warrant further study.

Traditionally, the fields of knowledge management (KM), intellectual capital (IC) and project management (PM) have been studied separately. More recently, scholars have started to call for convergence between these disciplines in order to broaden research interests and opportunities in academia and enhance their value to practice. Following the current trend, the purpose of this paper is to propose a new conceptual model that merges elements of knowledge management (KM), intellectual capital (IC) and project management (PM) and thus connects dynamic (KM), static (IC) and performance (PM) aspects of project-based organisations. It is expected that the proposed model will serve as a valuable theoretical basis for future empirical research of modern knowledge organisations.
