The recession cone and recession function are very important research objects in Convex Analysis. They have extensive applications in the optimization theory. Firstly, we study the properties of the recession cone and recession function. The positive homogeneity and subadditivity of recession function are mainly discussed. And the different methods are considered to prove these properties. Secondly, we discuss the unboundedness of the convex sets and convex functions by using recession cone and recession function.

We present an interdisciplinary exploration of technostress in knowledge-intensive organizations, including both business and healthcare settings, and its impact on a healthy working life. Technostress, a contemporary form of stress induced by information and communication technology, is associated with reduced job satisfaction, diminished organizational commitment, and adverse patient care outcomes. This article aims to construct an innovative framework, called The Integrated Technostress Resilience Framework, designed to mitigate technostress and promote continuous learning within dynamic organizational contexts. In this perspective article we incorporate a socio-technical systems approach to emphasize the complex interplay between technological and social factors in organizational settings. The proposed framework is expected to provide valuable insights into the role of transparency in digital technology utilization, with the aim of mitigating technostress. Furthermore, it seeks to extend information systems theory, particularly the Technology Acceptance Model, by offering a more nuanced understanding of technology adoption and use. Our conclusion includes considerations for the design and implementation of information systems aimed at fostering resilience and adaptability in organizations undergoing rapid technological change.

Today’s automation of the audit process increasingly relies on electronic auditing, especially computer-assisted audit techniques (CAATs), and has become a global necessity. Therefore, this study aims to explore the influence of technological, organizational, and environmental (TOE) factors on audit firms’ adoption of CAATs in developing countries, focusing on Ethiopia. The research employed a quantitative approach and gathered 113 valid responses from certified external auditors in Ethiopian audit firms. The data was then analyzed through the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The findings show that relative advantage and compatibility are the significant technological attributes influencing CAAT adoption in Ethiopian audit firms. Besides, auditors’ information technology (IT) competency was a significant organizational attribute influencing CAAT adoption. Environmental attributes such as the complexity of the client’s accounting information system (AIS) and the professional body support significantly impact the adoption of CAATs. Additionally, the size of an audit firm reduces the impact of clients’ AIS complexity on the adoption of CAATs in Ethiopian audit firms. The findings underscore the significance of CAAT adoption in audit firms and offer valuable insights for policymakers and standard setters in crafting legislation for the Ethiopian audit industry. This study represents the first scholarly effort to provide evidence of CAAT adoption in audit firms in developing countries like Ethiopia.

Managing the spread of “disinformation” is becoming an increasingly difficult task of our time, with an emphasis on digital marketing and its influence on organizational reputation. This paper aims to analyze the phenomenon of disinformation, with emphasis on the role of digital marketing and the consequent effect on organizational image. Thus, using the systematic literature review methodology, the study defines and categorizes different types of disinformation, namely fake news, misinformation, and propaganda, and how they are spread across different channels. Using the research, it is possible to conclude that digital marketing is more effective in spreading disinformation than traditional media and word-of-mouth; social media management and content marketing are the most effective. The work also evaluates the catastrophic impact of disinformation on an organization’s image, fiscal health, and the trust of its stakeholders. Using the Chi-Square Test for Independence and Logistic Regression, the study determines the factors likely to lead to severe consequences of disinformation campaigns. Last but not least, the paper also suggests ways of preventing the spread of disinformation, which include improved education on the use of digital platforms, better fact-checking systems, and an improved code of ethics in digital marketing.

Technological management has promoted distinctive characteristics in the socio-productive development of the regions. Its usefulness in entrepreneurial activity is studied to design the architecture of a technological observatory as an intelligent system for entrepreneurship in Latin America. Using a descriptive-explanatory method, data obtained from the application of two instruments directed to 18 experts in information and communication technologies and 174 entrepreneurs distributed 92 in Lima-Peru and 82 in Santiago de Cali-Colombia are processed. The findings show informational and training barriers and a weak or non-existent technological platform for effective entrepreneurial development. Added to the low development of plans and alliances mediated by technologies, whose experience supports public policies that strengthen entrepreneurship as an emerging economy. The architecture supports the functional and operational aspects of the system. Its scalability in other regions dynamizes the services-processes required prior to the detection of needs directed towards the projection of sustainable entrepreneurship.

The explosion of information technology, besides its positive aspects, has raised many issues related to personal information and personal data in the network environment. Because children are vulnerable to abuse, fraud and exploitation, protecting children’s personal information and personal data is always of concern to many countries. From the concept and characteristics of personal information and personal data of children in Europe, the United States and Vietnam, it can be seen that children’s personal information and personal data protection is very necessary in every country today. This research focuses on the age considered a child, the child’s consent and his or her parental consent when providing and processing personal information or personal data of children under the laws of the EU, US and Vietnam. Therefore, the article proposes some recommendations related to the child’s consent and his or her parental consent in protecting children’s personal data in Vietnam.
