Beyond Adoption: How Technology–Organization–Environment Factors Shape The Use Of Social Media Technologies And Performance In B2b Companies, Peter Grabner, Barbara Čater

Economic and Business Review

This study examines how technological, organizational, and environmental factors shape social media technology (SMT) use in business-to-business (B2B) markets and how SMT use relates to customer relationship performance and marketing performance. Building on the technology–organization–environment (TOE) framework, we develop and test a structural model in which perceived simplicity of SMT (technology), SMT strategy (organization), and mimetic competitive pressure (environment) shape SMT use, which in turn affects customer relationship and marketing performance. We collected data with an online survey of 195 marketing and sales professionals from B2B companies in Slovenia. Results indicate that SMT strategy is the strongest predictor of SMT …

Control-Plane Route Staling In An Ethernet Virtual Private Network Using A Stale Route Target On Ethernet Auto-Discovery Routes, Anonymous

Defensive Publications Series

A control-plane route staling mechanism for an Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN) is disclosed. When a single-homed link between a local Provider Edge (PE) router and a Customer Edge (CE) device fails, the local PE router removes the associated Media Access Control (MAC) and Internet Protocol (IP) forwarding entries from its hardware forwarding table, retains the corresponding EVPN Type 2 routes in its local routing information base, suppresses Type 2 withdrawals, and starts a configurable stale timer. The local PE router readvertises the EVPN Type 1 Ethernet auto-discovery route for the Ethernet Segment with a predefined stale route target in …

System And Method For Statistical Modeling And Automated Lifecycle Refresh Detection Of Digital Media Assets, Manisha Arora, Yassine Idrissi, Bruno Caforio

Defensive Publications Series

A data-driven, statistically rigorous analytical framework is disclosed for determining performance decay and optimizing the replacement timing of digital media assets (such as images and videos) in digital media campaigns. The system ingests campaign-level and asset-level metrics on a daily basis and extracts high-dimensional visual and semantic embedding vectors from the media assets using a deep neural network feature extractor. A visual taxonomy is constructed by clustering similar assets into visual archetypes using K-Means clustering, allowing for aggregate fatigue analysis within specific thematic content clusters. The statistical decay engine fits a non-linear saturation model (e.g., a Hill function S-curve) to …

Coupled Möbius‑Geometry Magneto‑Fluidic Toroids With Distributed Electromechanical Transduction For Induction, Amplification, And Neuromorphic Signal Conditioning, Michael @ Gaiacortex Terzi, Michael Terzi

Defensive Publications Series

This disclosure describes a paired toroidal system containing a magneto‑responsive fluid and distributed electromechanical transducer elements. Each toroid operates in a distinct activation mode: one responds primarily to magnetic field variation, while the other responds primarily to electrical excitation within the fluid. The internal geometry may include non‑orientable pathways, such as Möbius‑like channels, which influence circulation, resonance, and signal propagation. The system enables coupled induction, amplification, and modulation behaviors suitable for neuromorphic, spintronic, or computational applications. Implementation details are intentionally omitted to avoid enabling reproduction.

We Cut To The Chase! Building Consensus For School Librarian Collaboration: A Delphi Study, Pam Harland, Susan D. Ballard, Rachel V. Small

Learning Hub

This study examines collaboration between school librarians and educators using a three-round Delphi study with 38 experts in school librarianship. The researchers developed a consensus definition and a seven-level model of collaboration, ranging from autonomy to schoolwide assurance. The study also identifies environmental, cultural, and dispositional conditions that support successful collaboration, including administrative support, shared planning time, trust, communication, and librarian leadership. The resulting model and rubrics are intended to help educators and school librarians assess and strengthen collaborative practice to support student learning.

Navigating The Eu’S Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive: Strategic Implications For Us Companies, Silvia Ciacchi, Michael Faure, Sharon Oded

Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review

The European Union’s (“EU”) Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (“CSDDD” or the “Directive”) introduces new human rights and environmental obligations that reshape global corporate governance. This paper explores its impact on US companies, with a particular focus on compliance strategies under both direct and indirect applicability. It contrasts tactical compliance, which emphasizes risk mitigation while meeting minimum legal requirements, against strategic compliance, where companies use sustainability to gain a competitive edge in the market.

This paper highlights how varying enforcement levels across EU Member States may incentivize companies to “forum shop” or choose jurisdictions with more relaxed enforcement. It also …

Toward Ludic-Aware Narrative Generation: A Neuro-Symbolic Framework For Evaluating Playability In Llm-Generated Backstories, Luis Peña Sánchez, J.M. Peña, Rubén Cantos Leal

Artículos científicos

Although Large Language Models (LLMs) produce fluent prose, they routinely tend to generate narratively sterile content for interactive media—backstories in which every conflict has been resolved before play begins, giving rise to what we call the Closure Paradox. Moreover, current evaluation metrics—from n-gram overlap to retrieval-augmented faithfulness scores—inadvertently reward this exact type of closure in cases in which it is undesired, leaving game designers without tools to measure whether a generated character is actually useful as a foundation for play. We propose a dual-axis evaluation framework that separates Temporal Consistency from Ludic Potential. Two new metrics anchor the framework: the …

aCAdemicS: The Newsletter of the SWOSU College of Arts & Sciences

The more things change...

We’ve seen a lot of changes on campus over the last year. As the dust settles after all kinds of moves and transitions, now seems as good a time as any to reintroduce the aCAdemicS newsletter. This newsletter, the brainchild of Dr. Peter Grant, originally ran from 2015-2019 (check out older issues in SWOSU’s Digital Commons).

As a writer and writing teacher at heart, I cannot help but try to revive this newsletter to celebrate all things CAS and document the amazing things happening in our college. In between newsletters, you can also find SWOSU …

Police Surveillance And The Perils Of Techno-Solutionism, Prithika Balakrishnan

Michigan Journal of Race and Law

This Article charts domestic law enforcement’s use of video surveillance, beginning in the backlash to the Civil Rights movement in the late 1960s, continuing through the War on Terror and, more recently, in the context of the post-George Floyd public critiques of policing. The undergirding philosophy of policing’s embrace of surveillance technology is techno-solutionism, the view that all complex social situations can be simplified to measurable data primed for quick-fix, unbiased, algorithmic answers. While technology may have initially been adopted by police to respond to specific problems, it has changed the problems themselves, altered the array of potential solutions, and …

Designing System Coherence For Designated English Language Development, Raquel Gonzalez, Ph.D., Magaly Lavadenz, Ph.D., Elvira G. Armas, Ed.D., Jeimee Estrada-Miller, Britt Jung

Center on English Language Proficiency Implementation Briefs

Designing System Coherence for Designated English Language Development is the fourth and final brief in a series designed to guide state, regional, and local educational agencies in establishing equitable, high-quality comprehensive English Language Development (ELD) systems. The brief examines the organizational infrastructure, leadership, and resource alignment needed to scale and sustain high-quality designated ELD. An adapted framework of seven interconnected foundational practices guides the discussion of how educational leaders can protect instructional time, support sustained professional learning and coaching, and connect designated ELD to grade-level academic content. The brief also examines systemic coherence across three levels—state education agencies, local education …
