Cyber addiction refers to the excessive use of internet and cyber application leading to adverse outcomes such as stress, distractions, reduced motivation levels, and challenges in task orientation. Uncontrolled consumption of the internet leads to information overload that impact productivity and workplace performance (Griffiths, 2010). In such cases, the ubiquitous availability of information can lead to IT-related stress where users derive a reduced sense of satisfaction (Diomidous et al. 2016). People who frequently access the internet can experience various issues, which encompass anxiety, depression, and self-image challenges. Physically, affected individuals experience disrupted sleep patterns, irritability and high levels of fatigue. Social networking sites increase the risk of addiction and online dependency, aspects associated with low levels of productivity (Hoq, 2014). As illustrated in fig 1, the paper hypothesizes that there is a direct relationship between information overload and workplace performance and job satisfaction. The assumption is that cyber addiction worsens the problem of information overload, which in return, impacts information behavior and use and workplace/job performance (Riaz & Qureshi, 2019). The study addresses the following research questions: What is the impact of cyber addiction on workplace performance? What are the relationships between cyber addiction, information workload and information behavior and …

Presentation exploring how information is organized in digital cultural heritage collection in Arabian Gulf countries. Study reveals high metadata quality overall but lack of consistency for many metadata fields, explained in part by the absence of metadata creation guidelines and professional training for metadata creators.

The goal of this study is to explore how information is currently organized in digital cultural heritage collections in Arabian Gulf countries. it focused on Alqabas – a Kuwaiti institution with a strong reputation of early adopter of digital archiving and developer of major digital collections in Arab Gulf counties, accumulated experience in knowledge management. The mixed-methods study combined semi-structured interview of the Alqabas archive manager and in-depth content analysis of a sample of metadata records that represent items in Alqabas digital collections for accuracy, completeness, consistency, use of knowledge organization systems. The study reveals high metadata quality overall but lack of consistency for many metadata fields, explained in part by the absence of metadata creation guidelines and professional training for metadata creators. This indicates potential barriers to metadata interoperability in an aggregated environment for future projects similar to DPLA or Europeana.

Wisdom is defined as “a uniquely human quality demonstrated through an ability to apply self-insight, experience, and sound judgment in conjunction with applicable data, information, and knowledge to create a course of action leading to beneficial and productive decisions for both individuals and society” (Allen et al., 2020, p. 159). Using this definition as a foundation, this research explores how veterans use wisdom to enhance the workforce through perspective, experience, and resilience.

Disinformation and misinformation are pervasive in unregulated social-media environments, which are used habitually for obtaining news. Fenn et al in 2019 stated that “Given that people tend to share interesting information to maintain social relationships or to manage their impressions, information that receives more likes may subsequently be shared more often” (Fenn, Ramsay, Kantner, Pezdek, & Abed, 2019, p.133) Recent studies also revealed that misinformation from politicians and celebrities has increased in recent years which lead to more engagement on Twitter (Brennen, et al. 2020 ). There has been a lot of misinformation pertaining to COVID-19 masks on Twitter. Due to the misinformation, many people might not believe in the effectiveness of masks. Even though studies have shown the effectiveness of wearing masks in different countries (Lyu and Wehby, 2020). Not wearing masks affects people's health and indirectly increases the spread of COVID-19. Studies of social noise and misinformation cases on social media are needed, specifically focusing on how social noise influences and contributes to the spread of misleading and possibly harmful messages.

This paper will report on a research to develop Speaker Independent, Continuous Speech Recognizer for Kafi Noonoo (Afro-Asiatic language that belongs to North Omotic sub family in Ethiopia) using Hidden Markov Modeling technique. The portable and open source toolkit called Hidden Markov Model (HMM) Toolkit is used to perform the experiment. The development of HMM based Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) requires both text and speech corpus for training and testing the HMM. In order to have a model that incorporates different features of the language, we included the different dialects of Kafi Noonoo in the corpus and then prepared the training and test corpus from the scratch, and after preprocessing we have sampled and performed feature extraction using Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) feature extraction technique.

Arising in China in December 2019, the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) soon spread to other countries worldwide including Bangladesh. Mass media and social media platforms played an important role in providing Coronavirus related information and news as they enable people to share news as well as personal experiences with one another rapidly. Since little is known about COVID-19, various fake news spread across social media that panicked people into making panic decisions. The primary objective of this study is to examine how social media is spreading fake or unauthentic news during the time of COVID-19 pandemic. This study also focuses on how the university students of Bangladesh are playing their roles in the spread of fake news in social media. An online survey was conducted to reach a wide number of university students who own at least one social media account. A well-structured questionnaire was designed containing both open and close ended questions. Google forms was used to build the survey instrument. The questionnaire was distributed to the students using different social media platforms. Collected data were analyzed using SPSS version 20 and MS Excel. The study showed that the students sometimes received COVID-19 related fake news. The main reason behind …

Using a literature review, this paper analyzes how knowledge can be captured during different project management phases. It attempts to bridge frequently ignored areas of project management, knowledge management, and analytics.

Twitter is one of the major social media platforms highlighting public opinion. With over 330 million users across the globe, Twitter provides insights into global sentiments on many topics. One can estimate global sentiments towards certain events relating to COVID-19 by analyzing the most common phrases and their related sentiment scores from Twitter API data. This project has compiled the most used trigrams in tweets relating to COVID-19 to calculate sentiment scores for the period from March 22 to August 7, 2020. Another goal of the project is to optimize data collection from Twitter API. Twitter limits access to tweet contents to 900 requests per 15 minutes for unpaid API users. For student data scientists, paying for increased API usage is financially infeasible. So, to deal with the rate limit, the project has written functions using the Tweepy python library to collect Twitter API data. The Pandas library has also been used to sample 139000 tweets from over 300 million. The IEEE Dataset provided sentiment scores for the full population. So, to check the integrity of my sample, I performed a Pearson correlation test between the full dataset and sample data, and got 0.84, showing the sample is representative of …
