Using a mixed method approach, the results show that when it comes to emojified news, news organizations predominately use various people’s icons and positive sentiments, creating relatable and lively posts that can enhance the news items’ emotional appeals and cognitive cues. To target certain audiences, news organizations used emojis that showcased women slightly more than those that referenced men, while light skin colors were used much more than darker ones.

However, an unexplored area of investigation remains: the application of an inverted Sierpinski fractal structure within a crossed bowtie antenna design. This article presents the design, fabrication, and measurement of a third iteration of an inverted crossed bowtie-shaped Sierpinski fractal antenna suitable for wireless multiband communication systems. The design procedure utilized a scripting technique (*.py) provided by the HFSS software due to the antenna’s complex geometry. Additionally, manually designing antennas with complex geometries, such as fractal antennas, can be time-consuming. Optimization procedures, along with a comparative study, were conducted, revealing that the proposed antenna offers more frequency bands and better impedance matching. The proposed antenna is constructed using dielectric material FR4 glass epoxy with a thickness of 1.6 mm, relative permittivity of 4.4, and a loss tangent of 0.025. The proposed antenna resonates at frequencies of 0.73, 2.75, 3.53, 5.22, and 5.64 GHz, covering various applications, including television broadcasting, satellite communication, radar systems (such as weather and air traffic control radar), long-range communication systems, wireless broadband services, and wireless networking (Wi-Fi). The simulation and experimental measurement results are in good agreement, validating the effectiveness of the antenna design for these applications.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101213,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics Reports","volume":"19 ","pages":"Article 100231"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144633324","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

S-commerce is a type of electronic commerce (e-commerce) which utilizes social media platforms to facilitate commercial activities. S-commerce design deals with the structuring of online platforms that integrate social interaction and commercial interactions. S-commerce design is very significant in the transition of e-commerce to s-commerce as user preferences, social interactions, and user-generated content determine the business. This research conducts a systematic mapping study to classify s-commerce design articles published between 2015 and 2023 in online databases. A framework is proposed to analyze and categorize the existing body of knowledge on s-commerce design. The framework comprises three dimensions: design themes, design principles, and design artifacts. The results of the research show that the most prevalent design theme under s-commerce design is behavioral design (66 %), the commonly addressed design artifact is the behavior intention model (63 %), and the most emphasized design principle is usability (22 %). Among the least explored dimensions of s-commerce design are requirement design as the theme (4 %), playfulness as the design principle (6 %), and technical models and conceptual frameworks as the artifact (1 %). This indicates that human behavioral design has been well studied, while more research on technical, business, trust, and requirement design is needed for the efficient implementation of s-commerce platforms. The findings of this study guide future s-commerce research by highlighting gaps and potential directions in areas such as personalization, security, and interaction features.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101213,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics Reports","volume":"19 ","pages":"Article 100229"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144519125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, AI’s perceived value varies by content context, with profit-driven scenarios (e.g., advertising) amplifying both augmentation and replacement perceptions compared to non-profit contexts (e.g., news).
