Purpose: The fast development of technology and data has fueled the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the business area, but there has been no comprehensive review to guide and assess this ...evolution, especially in the context of Covid-19 crisis. Our objective is to highlight the nature and scale of AI research in the business area, during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
Methods: We performed a scoping review and searched two literature databases (Scopus and MDPI) for terms related to AI and Covid-19 by focusing on scientific papers published in the field of business. We used multiple tools (Endnote, Covidence) for titles and abstracts selection, followed by full-text screening. The studies must include research on artificial intelligence and Covid-19, and then be published in English-language, between March 2020 and March 2022.
Results: 31 studies met eligibility criteria (of 391 studies selected). Most of the published articles refer to conceptual analysis or quantitative works, the rest of the articles used a literature review except 4 articles published using a qualitative method of analysis. In addition, we observe an evolution of the total number of publications for the 31 articles included in the analysis. Conclusions: Studying AI in the business field amid the covid-19 crisis is at an early stage of maturity, especially with the use of new AI technologies.). For the field to progress, more studies are needed in the next few years.
Rad pruža odgovor na pitanje postavljeno naslovom, počinjući od revizije nekih karakterističnih sastavnica pojavnosti filozofijskih savjetnika u poslovanju i organizacijskom okruženju, ali i u ...treniranju kao usluzi za vođe, te se predstavljaju posebnosti svake. Izvodi se komparativna analiza između treniranja i filozofijskog savjetovanja radi motrenja sličnosti i razlike između dviju primjena koje uspješno mogu djelovati na području građenja efikasnog vodstva u području poslovanja. Pojam filozofijskog vodstva predstavljen je kao ishod primjene filozofije u području poslovanja. Implicitno vodi do lansiranja suradnje između dviju praksi, što se može materijalizirati tvorbom zajedničke usluge za vodstvo, ali i preuzimanjem nekih specifičnih alata iz filozofije, sada implementiranih u praksi u području organizacije i poslovanja.
Ce travail offre une réponse à la question posée dans le titre en commençant par réviser certains éléments caractéristiques liés à l’apparition de conseillers philosophiques dans le domaine professionnel et organisationnel, mais également dans la formation des leaders comme service offert pour eux, pour présenter ensuite la particularité de chacun des éléments. Une analyse comparative est réalisée entre la formation et le conseil philosophique afin d’observer les ressemblances et les différences entre ces deux activités qui peuvent être bénéfiques dans le domaine visant à construire un leadership efficace dans le domaine professionnel. Le concept de leadership philosophique est présente comme le résultat de l’activité philosophique dans le domaine professionnel. Elle mène de manière implicite à l’ouverture d’une collaboration entre deux activités, ce qui peut être concrétisé en créant des services communs pour le leadership, mais également en reprenant certains outils de la philosophie, qui sont à présent mis en œuvre dans la pratique dans le domaine de l’organisation et des affaires.
Die Arbeit gibt eine Antwort auf die Frage, die der Titel stellt, beginnend mit einer Revision einiger charakteristischer Komponenten des Auftretens philosophischer Berater im geschäftlichen und organisatorischen Umfeld, aber auch beim Coaching als Dienstleistung für Führungskräfte, wobei Besonderheiten jeder einzelnen Komponente wiedergegeben werden. Es wird eine vergleichende Analyse zwischen Coaching und philosophischer Beratung durchgeführt, um die Ähnlichkeiten und Unterschiede zwischen den beiden Anwendungen zu beobachten, die erfolgreich im Sektor des Aufbaus einer effizienten Führung im Geschäftsbereich eingesetzt werden können. Der Begriff der philosophischen Führung wird als Resultat der Anwendung der Philosophie im Geschäftsbereich präsentiert. Dies führt implizit zur Einleitung einer Zusammenarbeit zwischen den beiden Praktiken, die durch die Schaffung eines gemeinsamen Dienstes für die Führungskräfte materialisiert werden kann, indessen auch durch die Übernahme einiger spezifischer Instrumente aus der Philosophie, die gegenwärtig in der Praxis auf dem Gebiet Organisation und Geschäft implementiert werden können.
The paper offers an answer to the question given by the title, starting from the revision of some specific elements of the appearance of the philosophical counsellor in the business and organisational environment, but also of the coaching as a service for the leaders, and it presents the characteristics of each one. The work makes a comparative analysis between coaching and philosophical counselling to observe the similarities and differences between the two applications that can act successfully in the field of building effective leadership in the business field. The concept of philosophical leadership is presented as a result of the application of philosophy in the business area. It leads implicitly to launching a collaboration proposal between the two practices, which can be materialised by issuing common services for the leadership, but also by taking over some specific tools from philosophy, now implemented in practice in the organisational and business area.
Day-ahead peak load forecasting is a crucial factor for the electrical utility for daily power planning and distribution. A comparative study of the peak load forecasting at distribution feeder-level ...circuits with high penetration level of PV generation are investigated. First, two years of private load data from the local utility and two years of public load data from Texas utility are analysed. The correlation analysis is applied to peak load and its driver factors. Next, Bayesian additive regression trees (BART) is employed to do peak load forecasting. Since the BART method takes an amount of time to generate the forecasting, the composite kernel methods based on Gaussian process regression (CKGPR) are designed. Then these methods are compared with multiple linear regression method and the support vector regression method based on the residential area and the business area load data. Thorough comparison results are presented based on five forecasting measurements. The BART has the best forecasting accuracy among all the indices, and the CKGPR also has counterpart forecasting results but with less computation time. Meanwhile, the forecasting accuracy difference between two areas is analysed. Lastly, influential driver factors are summarised.

Design/methodology/approach
The study looks at and depends on narrative investigation of previous studies. In the examination talked about the principle issues with respect to the utilization of cloud and database the executives in the AIS through developing research model.
Findings
The focal point of the paper is the impact of cloud computing worldview on the business area. This paper highlights different facts of cloud accounting, published research papers and the benefits and possible risks determined by the implementation of cloud services, mostly in relation to the accounting department.
Originality/value
Considering the numerous ramifications of cloud advancements on the present business process, there is a need for an examination of how these innovations will be used in AIS to improve precision, benefits and risks. At the same time, there is need to investigate the determinant elements of actualizing cloud advances in the AIS. More importantly, to the author’s knowledge, this is the first study that focuses on the number of published research works to show the importance of cloud computing in accounting and information systems.
The layout of the shophouse combined two main functions, as a residence and commercial building. The living and business activities were main influences on how these spaces were designed in the ...shophouse that first made its appearance in the small towns and surrounding areas in the early 19th and 20th centuries. In Malaysia, in particular Perak, these shophouses are still intact and have enabled the opportunity to identify and record the layout features of interior space for this study. From interviews and measured drawing of the early shophouses in 16 small towns in Perak, a complete set of layout plans were produced and analysed. This study has found that the domestic (or family) space was given prominence in terms of size; thus, the lifestyle was a determining factor in the building's layout for interior space. Yet, the importance of business sets its relevant space at the forefront where customers are received.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between the impostor phenomenon (IP) and the academic behavior of stricto sensu postgraduate students in business area courses. ...Discussing the relationship between psychological variables and student academic behavior is a topic of interest as empirical evidence indicates that these variables affect the environment in which scientific research is developed. It is important to look for elements that help in understanding the IP in order to reduce its impacts on the performance, behavior, and feelings of students. Postgraduate students enrolled in stricto sensu courses may be refusing opportunities to advance in their professional careers and adopting behaviors that are discordant with those desired by universities because they feel like impostors in terms of their abilities. Besides the relevance of the relationships analyzed, this research also uses the Meurer and Costa Scale of Academic Behaviors - Stricto Sensu (MCSAB-SS), which can measure academic behaviors displayed in Brazilian postgraduate courses, enabling the development of new investigations into the topic. The population includes postgraduates enrolled in 2018 in academic master’s, professional master’s, and academic doctorate courses in administration, accounting, and economics, known as the business area. The data collection was operationalized via a survey carried out online, which obtained 1,816 valid participations. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, exploratory factor analysis, and the Spearman’s correlation. Higher levels of impostor feelings are positively associated with displays of counterproductive academic behaviors and are mostly negatively associated with academic citizenship behaviors. After identifying the IP in students, actions to minimize these feelings can be implemented, given that postgraduate students with the IP may not be engaging in the activities that permeate stricto sensu, thus damaging the climate and culture of cooperation needed in academia.
RESUMO O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a relação entre fenômeno impostor (FI) e comportamento acadêmico dos pós-graduandos stricto sensu dos cursos da área de negócios. Discutir a relação entre variáveis psicológicas e comportamento acadêmico dos discentes apresenta-se como tema de interesse pelo fato de evidências empíricas indicarem que essas variáveis afetam o ambiente em que as pesquisas científicas são desenvolvidas. Buscar elementos que auxiliem na compreensão do FI é relevante a fim de reduzir suas consequências no desempenho, comportamento e sentimentos vivenciados pelos discentes. Pós-graduandos matriculados no stricto sensu podem estar recusando oportunidades para avançar em suas carreiras profissionais e adotando comportamentos destoantes dos desejados pelas universidades por sentirem-se impostores das suas capacidades. Além da relevância das relações analisadas, esta pesquisa também disponibiliza a Escala Meurer e Costa de Comportamentos Acadêmicos - Stricto Sensu (EMCCA-SS), capaz de mensurar comportamentos acadêmicos realizados na pós-graduação brasileira, possibilitando o desenvolvimento de novas investigações acerca da temática. A população compreende os pós-graduandos matriculados em 2018 em cursos de mestrado acadêmico, mestrado profissional e doutorado acadêmico em administração, contabilidade e economia, denominados área de negócios. A coleta de dados foi operacionalizada por meio de uma survey realizada on-line, sendo obtidas 1.816 participações válidas. Os dados foram analisados mediante estatística descritiva, análise fatorial exploratória e correlação de Spearman. Níveis mais elevados de sentimentos impostores estão associados positivamente à manifestação de comportamentos acadêmicos contraproducentes e, em sua maioria, negativamente com comportamentos cidadãos acadêmicos. Ao identificar o FI em discentes, ações para minimização desses sentimentos podem ser implementadas, visto que pós-graduandos com FI podem não estar se engajando nas atividades que permeiam o stricto sensu, prejudicando o clima e a cultura de cooperação necessários na academia.
Airport is expected to play the role in enhancing the economic level of the region, especially the local people around the airport. The Aero City concept in developing an airport might also develop a ...city centreed in the airport that combining airport oriented business development, business actors and local people around the airport area. This study aims to generate development model of business centre at the airports in Indonesia. This is a mixed method based study. The population includes 296 airports under government management, government subsidiary and military. By using stratified random sampling, there were 151 sample airports. The results show that business centre development in the airport area will be related with the airport management and the commercial property (business centre) growth at the airport. Aero City in Indonesia can be developed by partnership system between government and private sector that consists of construction, development, and implementation of commercial property such as hotel, apartment, retail, office, etc. Based on the result of T-Value test, Airport Performance variable predicted to have significant influence on Gross Regional Domestic Product Central Business District performance.
Entrepreneurs’ changes to different business areas can be viewed as shifts in entrepreneurial knowledge domains (e.g., from restaurant to food waste processing firm as an ecological helping ...business). From a sample of 73 representative entrepreneurs, we present a study of the impact of such area changes on the persistence of entrepreneurship (i.e., the degree an entrepreneur remains in entrepreneurial activities). Furthermore, two mediators, managerial experience and insecurity, and two moderators, positive and negative affect, were proposed and examined to make a more comprehensive theoretical inference of the relationship between area difference and persistence. The results revealed that, counter-intuitively, area difference was significantly and positively associated with entrepreneurial persistence. The mediation effects of managerial experience and psychological insecurity were also confirmed. However, only the moderation of positive affect was effective. Based on the knowledge heterogeneity and entrepreneurial emotion perspectives, academic and practical implications for inter-temporal dynamics of entrepreneurship are discussed.
