Bug tracking systems are standard repositories that preserve a large number of uncovered bugs. Once a bug is reported in these repositories, developers search for appropriate changes to fix the bug. However, discovering the changes that can fix the bugs has a negative influence on the schedule and cost of projects. Mainly, fixing bugs could be done by performing some other maintenance changes. In this work, we study and examine the role of adaptive maintenance in the context of API-migration during bug fixing activities through a case study on KOffice, Extragear/graphics, and Open Scene Graph projects. Our goal is to direct developers towards potential bugs early in development which are more likely to be fixed by performing adaptive changes as opposed to other maintenance tasks. We examined the reports of fixed bugs from the bug tracking systems of the studied projects, then we explored several factors related to variant dimensions of the reports and their relevant version history commits, in order to evaluate their effectiveness to decide whether a bug is likely to be fixed by adaptive changes. Our case study results show that bug residency time, textual contents of the report, the component that the bug was found in, and reporter/commenter experience show significant differences between the bugs that are fixed by adaptive changes and other fixed bugs.

This study investigates the application of the technology acceptance model (TAM) on the digital payment using social media platforms with the extended inclusion of perceived ease of use, perceived security, perceived usefulness, and trust in enhancing consumer behavioral intention. This work has surveyed 250 consumer films on the digital social media platform. Data collection used a questionnaire designed with a five-point Likert scale. The questionnaire was created using a Google Form, and questionnaire distribution was performed by sending the link through social media to the respondents. As many as 300 questionnaires were distributed, and 258 questionnaires were considered valid for further analysis. Data analysis used smartPLS software version 3.0. The result revealed that nine hypotheses were empirically supported while the others two were not supported. Perceived security directly affects trust and consumer behavioral intention. Perceived ease of use directly affects perceived usefulness and consumer behavioral intention. Perceived security indirectly influences consumer behavioral intention through trust and perceived usefulness. Furthermore, perceived usefulness directly affects trust and consumer behavioral intention. Besides, trust directly affects consumer behavioral intentions. Perceived ease of use indirectly affects behavioral intention through perceived usefulness. Moreover, perceived security affects consumer behavioral intentions indirectly through trust. Perceived ease of use influences perceived usefulness. However, perceived usefulness did not indirectly influence behavioral intention through trust. Finally, perceived ease of use did not affect consumer behavioral intention through perceived usefulness and trust. These findings extended the application of the technology acceptance model in using digital payment platforms in Indonesia. These findings reinforced current research on user adoption of new technology. Furthermore, this result provides a managerial implication for digital payment platforms providers to improve consumer behavioral intentions.

The objectives of this paper was to explain the effect of the variables trust, PBC, subjective norm, perceived quality, and re-usage intention on attitude and re-usage intention. This study's population consisted of Indonesians who visited the COVID-19 website to learn more about the progress of COVID-19. With the purposive sampling strategy, the sample size was as large as 238 participants. Path Analysis with the SEM-PLS approach was employed as the analytical technique. The findings revealed that trust, subjective norm, and perceived quality all had a positive and significant effect on attitudes when using the COVID-19 website, although PBC had a favorable but small effect. Furthermore, attitude influences intention to use in a positive and significant way.

Broadening the approval and usage of technology to study online education is not a novel study subject, and several researchers have addressed it. However, the production of a systematic Technology acceptance model capable of examining online education adoption in the current Covid-19 is seen as a vital research path. Literature research was conducted to evaluate the most used external influences of innovation adoption regarding online learning acceptance. The search revealed that computer self-efficacy, corona apprehension, perceived ease of use, and perceived usefulness are the external factors for technology acceptance. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the variables that online education programs' approval among students can influence. 185 students from Jordan's Al-Zaytoonah University and Applied Science Private University participated in the online research. The online questionnaire system in this report was analyzed using SmartPLS tools. According to the findings, perceived usefulness, behavioral intent of use, self-efficacy, and Corona fear all positively affect the adoption of online education programs. The findings of this study were used as a required input in the latest online education interactive analytical production that was used extensively during the pandemic.

As part of their corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainable products, many big players in the industry have now reduced plastic through the design, manufacturing and packaging of products and their ultimate disposal. This paper investigates the direct and indirect relationships between awareness, trust, and brand preference on purchase intention in green marketing. Based on a review of the literature, a series of hypotheses are derived and tested using regression analysis. The research employs an online survey-based method to test a theoretically grounded set of proposed hypotheses. The data were collected from 348 young adults living in Jakarta, Indonesia. The results show that green awareness does not influence purchase intention directly. On the other hand, the indirect effect of green awareness through green brand preference on purchase intention was greater compared with the indirect effect through green trust. Therefore, this study draws attention to the importance of green brand preference and green trust on purchase intention. Given that the consumption of organic products has the potential to elicit awareness, trust, and preference of eco-friendly consumers, these findings have significant management implications for corporate managers when considering the production of organic commodities.

This paper investigates how customs officials perceive the implementation of e-customs will influence business performance in Vietnam, a developing country with a lower technological environment. A survey of customs officials was conducted, and data were analyzed by structural equation modelling. The outcomes discover two significant enablers related to relative advantages and the new exploring factor Culture while Finance & Human Resources and Legislation as the inhibitors. Additionally, the study also emphasized that e-customs implementation had a positive influence on firm performance in Vietnam. In addition, the study provides different viewpoints of cultural dimensions in case study of applying e-customs in Vietnam in comparison with previous studies. Culture with attributions related to uncertain acceptance and individualism encourage innovation in other literature reviews, however, the study indicates uncertainty avoidance and collectivism as Vietnam also promotes e-customs deployment. Vietnam with high power distance and short-term orientation became old themes. This emerging country switched to low distance and long-term orientation in terms of e-customs innovation. In contrast to previous studies related to constraints from technology in emerging economies, technological factors are not an obstacle for Vietnam. Furthermore, previous literature reviews inflected legislation and regulations of government as one of the limitations that should be examined in further and this research carried-out this investigation in one of emerging economies. The results of the paper support policy makers who can have essential solutions to enhance e-customs implementation as well as enterprises’ managers set-up strategy to adapt with the modernization environment.
