Jordanian real estate enterprises are experiencing difficult market circumstances and an increasingly competitive environment; following these issues, this study examines the leverage of electronic word of mouth (e-WOM) on customer purchase intention in a Jordanian context with specific reference to real estate enterprises, considering the moderating role of reliability. Based on earlier studies, a conceptual model for the study was created. This research includes e-WOM as an independent variable affecting customers' purchase intention as a dependent variable mediated by reliability. The investigation follows descriptive-analytical methods; based on a convenience sampling approach, 300 questionnaires were distributed through Google Forms; nonetheless and 250 responses were accepted. To analyze data and assess hypotheses, a structural Equation Modeling (SEM) using PLS was employed. Results demonstrated a significant effect of e-WOM and Reliability on purchasing intent of customers, and the moderating role of reliability in the relationship between e-WOM and purchase intent was also affirmed. The findings give Jordanian real estate businesses information on ways to use that are most effective e-WOM to persuade buyers to buy.

The spread of the Covid-19 pandemic and the interruption of personal communication between the teacher and students in higher education led to the need for finding solutions that enable the continuation of the educational process and ensure access to accurate information that improves the level of human capital in dealing with dynamic environments. Therefore, this research sought to analyse the impact of the application of artificial intelligence in entrepreneurship education in Qatari higher education institutions after the Corona pandemic. The measurement of artificial intelligence was based on dimensions (machine learning, natural language processing, expert systems, and machine vision), while entrepreneurship education was measured by dimensions of (entrepreneurial cognition, entrepreneurial competence, and innovation spirit). The research followed an experimental quantitative approach based on collecting data from Qatari university students using a questionnaire developed for the research purpose. Hence, the convenience sample used in the research was composed of 402 students from various Qatari universities, which represents a response rate of 67% from the distributed questionnaires. The statistical analysis of the research data was based on the covariance-based structural equation modeling technique (CB-SEM). The results of the research indicated that all dimensions of artificial intelligence had a positive impact on entrepreneurial education, with the highest impact being machine vision and the lowest impact being natural language processing. Accordingly, the results of the research revealed the need to invest in technological capabilities for supporting the educational system aimed at generating innovative human resources capable of coping with the uncertainty of the work environment.

The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic and the introduction of Society 5.0 by the Japanese government in 2019 have resulted in significant changes to consumer behavior. The aim of this research is to examine the impacts of consumption value on customers' behavioral shifts. Furthermore, quantitative methods were used with a sample of 344 respondents, and data analysis using the structural equation model with the Lisrel 8.72 application. The stages in the structural equation analysis of this model are: development of theoretical models, development of path diagrams, conversion of path diagrams to structural equations, selecting input matrices and types of estimates, identifying models, assessing goodness of fit criteria, and interpreting results. The results obtained showed that consumers' attitudes and habits toward utilizing meal delivery applications can be influenced by factors such as their social, conditional, emotional, epistemic, and functional values. In the use of food delivery applications, consumers are not only interested in tangible benefits, but also in less tangible benefits, such as information provided by businesses.

For the current study, a random sample of 580 customers in Jordanian conventional and Islamic banks was selected using the quantitative research methodology, and in order to gather the necessary data, the study employed a survey questionnaire instrument that was developed based on the earlier relevant literature and studies. The results of this study showed that perceived ease of use (PEU), perceived utility (PU), simplicity of use (SU), and social influence (SI) all significantly affected the use of technology in Jordanian conventional and Islamic banks.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the most evolving technologies, which has a major impact on our daily life. Almost all new devices will have a feature to be connected and controlled over the Internet. Several applications are utilizing IoT to enhance routine processes and actions efficiently. The Internet of Vehicles (IoV) evolved from IoT, where vehicles communicate with each other or with other objects to have a better transportation environment to reduce the number of accidents and save people’s lives. IoV is considered new fields that need security requirements including confidentiality, integrity, availability, authentication, and trust. Trust management technique is used to validate entities behaviors automatically against well-defined policies. The major categories of trust model in IoV are based on entity, data, or a combination of both. This paper proposes a trust model which is based on a combination of entity and data to define the trust of vehicles and utilize the public key infrastructure to distribute certificates to vehicles. Based on certificate validation, messages will be trusted and accepted. This model has been tested across different simulation scenarios which showed that the proposed model detected malicious vehicles and trusted vehicles did not accept their messages.

Ad hoc networks, known as infrastructure-less networks, are composed of mobile nodes that connect without a centralized system controlling them. These networks have a wide range of potential applications, including emergency response, events, military operations, wireless access, and intelligent transportation. They can take on various forms, such as wireless sensor networks, wireless mesh networks, and mobile ad hoc networks. Because users in these networks can move around at any time, routing protocols must adapt to the constantly changing network layout. However, these networks are also susceptible to various security threats, including DDoS attacks. This paper aims to analyze the performance and impact of security attacks on the performance of reactive and proactive routing protocols in CBR connection patterns with different pause times. The analysis is provided in metrics such as throughput, packet loss, end-to-end delay, and load. The simulation results show that, on average, the OPNET Modeler simulator analyzed the performance results under DDoS attacks under voice and video traffic conditions. Furthermore, the paper explores the use of Honeypot intelligent agents as a solution to increase security by creating a dummy node to fool DDoS attackers. The results show that the OLSR protocol is most affected by DDoS attacks in terms of quality-of-service metrics such as packet loss, throughput, end-to-end delay, and load. The number of responses to the honeypot solutions differs for each protocol.

This paper proposes a new variant of NTRU with a slightly different critical formulation. The significance of this new variant is that it requires an additional private key to provide a tighter scheme. Because of these changes, modified key generation, encryption and decryption algorithms have been developed accordingly. The new variant is analyzed and tested against several well-known attacks, namely the alternate private key attack, brute force attack, meet-in-the-middle attack, multiple transmission attacks and lattice attack. Security properties related to these attacks have been established and explored to ensure the new variant is secure against the said attacks. Several examples are provided to illustrate the ideas.

The research aimed to know the impact of electronic delivery orders and logistics digitalization on the import document activities mediated by logistics service quality in the national shipping lines, especially the members of Regional Container Lines. Several logistics companies in Indonesia have now begun to utilize digital technology supported by the national logistics ecosystem platform to advance logistics activities, to assist logistics processes in all sectors, including the industrial sector. Shipping, especially by sea shipping. One of the research problems, among others, is that the TSJ/T3 terminal still uses manual delivery orders. The research used the path analysis method and Sobel test with a random sample of 102 PT Bhum Mulia Prima customers. The result of the study showed that electronic delivery orders and logistics digitalization partially contribute to the import document activities through logistics service quality. Furthermore, logistics service quality as the intervening variable strengthened the contribution of an electronic delivery order to the import document activities. Testing is also needed by comparing digital systems between the shipping companies that still do not use manual documents and those that have used online processes in import activities.
