The purpose of this study is the development of IT-consulting in the system of foreign economic activity of the Black Sea region. The relevance of this study is due to the need to address the development of consulting services in the system of foreign economic activity of the agro-industrial complex in the region. It is established that today many companies are interested in reducing the risks associated with running their own business. This has led to a rapid growth of consulting companies. The most popular are IT consulting services, market research, financial consulting and auditing with the largest market share, while environmental consulting is only gaining momentum. Institutional priorities of IT-consulting services in the system of foreign economic development of agro-food production of the region are established. The mechanism of development of the system of regional IT-consulting for stimulation of foreign economic activity of agro-food sphere is offered. The basic elements of development and functioning of the international infrastructure of regulation and self-regulation of IT-consulting services are investigated. It is determined that in the long run the services will be developed on the basis of innovative concepts and management tools to ensure the strategic competitiveness of customers. The consumers served are metallurgy, energy, construction, telecommunications, chemical industry, food industry, trade and distribution, media companies and the financial sector. In general, the consulting industry in Ukraine has some space, and domestic consulting companies also have a significant share of reserves in the market of consulting services. The estimated value of exports of the Black Sea region according to the models in 2022 is projected at the level of 2989.242 million dollars, and in 2023 - at the level of 3146.893 million dollars. It is proved that for further intensification of foreign economic activity of enterprises two main problems should be solved: to overcome excessive dependence on export of plant products (and other products with low added value) and to intensify export capacities of Kherson region.

Despite the vital role of information in relational-oriented firms, there are limited studies on the impact of information quality on relationship marketing. To address this gap, this study develops a conceptual model to examine the impact of information quality on the successful implementation of relationship marketing by assessing the mediating role of salespeople's relational competency. The proposed model is tested using structural equation modeling (SEM) technique with data collected from 140 employee-customer pair sample of Shatel Group (Tehran, Iran). Stratified sampling is our applied research methodology, we also employed questionnaire for data collection. The results indicate that while there is no meaningful relationship between information quality and salespeople's relational competency, there is a significant relationship between salespeople's relational competency and relationship marketing. Accordingly, it could be concluded that salespeople's relational competency cannot act as a mediating variable and thus information quality cannot affect relationship marketing indirectly.

The article examines the multiaspected problem of ensuring economic security. An analysis of challenges and threats to Ukraine's economic security during 2010-2019. Strategic goals of economic security have been set. The study of the relationship between public debt, foreign direct investment, and economic growth allows assessing the characteristics of economic security. A system of structural equations is proposed to study the relationship between GDP, public debt, and foreign direct investment. The result of economic security, which can be achieved by achieving the goal, can be considered increased resilience to internal and external factors.

Learning effective segment depictions and resemblance measures are fundamental to the recuperation execution of a substance based picture recuperation (CBIR) structure. Regardless of wide research tries for a significant long time, it stays one of the most testing open gives that broadly impedes the achievements of real-world CBIR structures. The key test has been credited to the extraordinary "semantic hole" subject that happens between low-level photo pixels got by technologies and raised close semantic thoughts saw by a human. Among various techniques, AI has been successfully analyzed as a possible course to interface the semantic gap in the whole deal. Impelled by late triumphs of significant learning techniques for PC vision and various applications, in this paper, we try to address an open issue: if significant learning is a longing for spreading over the semantic gap in CBIR and how much updates in CBIR endeavors can be cultivated by exploring the front line significant learning methodology for learning feature depictions and likeness measures. Specifically, we explore a structure of significant learning with application to CBIR assignments with a wide game plan of definite examinations by investigating front line significant learning methodologies for CBIR endeavors under moved settings. From our exploratory examinations, we find some encouraging results and compress some huge bits of information for upcoming research.

Healthcare service institutions (HSIs) have sought ways to motivate patient loyalty in response to surging rates of medical tourism. Previous research indicates that Hospital Information System (HIS) is essential for HSIs to gather, measure, and analyze the massive amounts of data required to generate patient loyalty. There is currently no consensus on the factors that comprise HIS specifically geared towards motivating patient loyalty (HISPL). Furthermore, HIS requires full adoption by HSI staff to be effective. Thus, to reduce wastage of HSI resources, it is necessary to predict whether a given HIS specifically geared towards motivating patient loyalty is likely to be adopted. The purpose of this study is to reveal the factors that comprise HISPL and to modify the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model to help predict the likelihood of an HISPL to be fully adopted by HSI staff. The results revealed that pertinent HISPL factors are capability, configurability, ease of use/help desk availability and competence (EU), and accessibility/shareability (AS). Using these factors, the UTAUT model was modified to fit the specific needs of HISPL. The modifications are theoretical and will have to be validated in future empirical studies.

The Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry rely heavily on Building Information Modeling (BIM). BIM is the collection of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), interacting policies, and procedures. BIM is a tool for managing digital project data during the life cycle of a building. Despite the many benefits and features of BIM, the Malaysian construction industry's proliferation is confronted with adoption issues. Therefore, this research study intends to find the effect of BIM adoption factors in Malaysian AEC. Quantitative data collection from construction firms is gathered. The proposed model's theoretical foundations are based on Technology, Organization Environment framework. The model is tested and validated with the Smart PLS tool. The study's findings indicate that Perceived benefits, Organizational Capabilities, and Trialability are drivers of BIM adoption. Perceived cost and Insecurity are the barriers to BIM adoption. Perceived ease of use and compatibility does not affect BIM adoption. Finally, this study performs Importance Performance Map Analysis to provide recommendations to AEC stakeholders to address the BIM adoption issues for enhancing its diffusion in Malaysia.

This study assessed the use of social media application significantly influence the students' decision-making to enrol at private higher education institutions (HEIs) within the Malaysian context. The underpinning theory applied in this study was the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA). A quantitative method, stratified sampling technique and systematic sampling technique applied in this study to test the proposed hypotheses based on a sample of 500 first-year students in their first academic semester at 23 selected private HEIs in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. Data analysis was carried out using smartPLS software. The analysis outcome of the focal study had expounded a significant positive relationship between the use of social media application and students' decision-making as a direct relationship. Thus, analysis of the structural model had further verified that hypotheses h1 of the focal study were accepted. The result shows a  significant positive relationship between social media application and students' decision-making indicated by a path coefficient of  0.630, t-value of 24.103, and p-value of 0.000.

Trust establishment (TE) among sensor nodes has become a vital requirement to improve security, reliability, and successful cooperation. Existing trust management approaches for large scale WSN are failed due to their low cooperation (i.e., dependability), higher communication and memory overheads (i.e., resource inefficient). This paper provides a new and comprehensive hybrid trust estimation approach for large scale WSN employing clustering to improve cooperation, trustworthiness, and security by detecting selfish sensor nodes with reduced resource (memory, power) consumption. The proposed scheme consists of unique features like authentication based data trust, scheduler based node trust, and attack resistant by giving the high penalty and minimum reward during node misbehavior. A task scheduling mechanism is employed for scheduling the significant task to reduce computation overhead. The proposed trust model would be capable to provide security against blackhole attack, grey hole attack, and badmouthing attack. Moreover, the proposed trust model feasibility has been tested with MATLAB. Simulation results exhibit the great performance of our proposed approach in terms of trust evaluation cost, prevention, and detection of malicious nodes with the help of analyzing consistency in trust values and communication overhead.

With the development of a new stage of the industrial revolution, the importance of digitalization of business development tools is growing. The purpose of this article is to study the applied aspects of digital marketing tools usage for business development in the B2C market. To achieve the purpose and objectives of the study general and special methods are used: comparative analysis of the results of economic and statistical surveys; method of expert assessments by questionnaires using a 5-point Likert scale. The concordance coefficient was used to determine the consistency of the experts' opinions taking into account the related ranks in method of expert assessments. According to the results of the research, it is established that the Ukrainian business of the B2C sector was actively mastering digital marketing tools. The analysis of penetration level of digital technologies in the development of trade business showed the emergence of basic conditions for updating marketing tools to influence the B2C market. There is a rapid coverage rate of multi-purpose use of the Internet among consumers and businesses; gradual growth of digital skills among practitioners; positive dynamics of development of interactive services in the trade sphere. However, the level of use of the retail businesses websites remains low in many spheres of customer service. An important trend of the current development stage of the consumer market is the usage of business Internet platforms designed for mass dissemination of information. Effective marketing channels of interaction with consumers include social media (social networks, blogs or microblogs, websites with multimedia content, knowledge sharing tools), websites, e-shops, and sales via mobile devices. According to the results of expert evaluation, foreground digital technologies, which are able to bring business to a qualitatively new level of interaction with consumers and the provision of trade services have been identified. These are artificial intelligence and cognitive technologies, BigData, Internet of Things (IoT), and cloud computing. The structural and logical scheme of research of digital marketing tools is used for business development which includes two stages is offered. In the first stage, trendwatching, benchmarking and evaluation of internal opportunities for the use of digital marketing tools are performed. In the second stage, three components of digital readiness of business are defined: technological; competence; institutional. The obtained results form the basis of further research to determine the priorities of adaptive digital business behavior for the productive use of existing digital opportunities.

The purpose of this study is to develop proposals for the introduction of ecological, digital, professional, innovation and social public procurements in the national strategy on E-Public Procurement Reform and the strategy of procurements on the company-customer level. The relevance of this study is due to the need to ensure the development of “smart”, sustainable, inclusive economy, which will help reduce unemployment, poverty, facilitate access for people with disabilities to work, create opportunities for the education of young people and adults, stimulate innovations, meet expectations of citizens, solve environmental problems, carry out digital transformations taking into consideration the best world practices. The share of public procurements in expenditures of the state budget and gross domestic product of Ukraine, the dynamics of the procurement’s participants in the B2G segment is evaluated. In Ukraine, the largest share of expenditures falls on security and social protection, however, the prosperity index in these categories is critical (“red” zone). In order to form The E-Public Procurement Strategy, the best world practices of introducing innovative, environmental and social procurement criteria should be considered. Strategic directions of public procurement, namely – ecological, digital, professional, innovation and social, which provide sustainable and inclusive development of economy, are proposed.
