TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyze the multifaceted complexities embedded in disputes involving contested cultural heritage and propose that examining these disputes within the broader context of the history and dynamics of the relationships of the various parties of the dispute becomes necessary and critical in engendering a sustainable resolution of disputes over shared cultural heritage.
Abstract: As regional neighbours, Indonesia and Malaysia share common historical roots and cultural heritage. Disputes over cultural icons have lamentably been a frequent affair between the two countries. One of these recurring clashes was recently brought to the fore when a third party erroneously represented an Indonesian traditional dance as Malaysian. Based on this episode, this article analyses the multifaceted complexities embedded in disputes involving contested cultural heritage. It underscores the point that quarrels over ostensibly petty issues are often symptomatic of protracted undercurrents of political conflict between states. Drawing from the illustrations of the pendet example, it further demonstrates how failure to address these latent tensions could potentially result in destructive manifestations, even over seemingly trivial spats. By way of conclusion, the article proposes that examining these disputes within the broader context of the history and dynamics of the relationships of the various parties of the dispute becomes necessary and critical in engendering a sustainable resolution of disputes over shared cultural heritage.

TL;DR: The study of distributed systems which bring to life the vision of ubiquitous computing systems, also known as ambient intelligence, is concentrated on in this work.
Abstract: With digital equipment becoming increasingly networked, either on wired or wireless networks, for personal and professional use alike, distributed software systems have become a crucial element in information and communications technologies. The study of these systems forms the core of the ARLES' work, which is specifically concerned with defining new system software architectures, based on the use of emerging networking technologies. In this context, we concentrate on the study of distributed systems which bring to life the vision of ubiquitous computing systems, also known as ambient intelligence.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of perceived risk, government support, and perceived usefulness on customers' intention to use e-wallets during COVID-19 outbreak was examined by investigating the group difference between Indonesia and Malaysia in the overall model.
Abstract: Physical distancing policy that is encouraged by the World Health Organization (WHO) has inspired consumers to do contactless activities, including payment transaction Government authorities in a growing number of countries are taking actions to encourage contactless payments as the COVID-19 pandemic escalates People are worried that novel coronavirus (SARS-Cov2) can be transmitted through physical money It drives them to shift to e-wallet Due to a lack of study on this topic, the present study contributes to the literature by examining the effect of perceived risk, government support, and perceived usefulness on customers’ intention to use e-wallet during COVID-19 outbreak To give more fruitful insight, another major contribution of this study is investigating the group difference between Indonesia and Malaysia in the overall model Questionnaires are distributed to the respondents by using a proportional sampling technique As a result, 259 total respondents from Indonesia and 207 from Malaysia are collected Both countries are selected because Indonesia and Malaysia can be considered as the two-worst countries in ASEAN affected by COVID-19 The model is tested using PLS-Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) approach The results show that the effects of government support on the intention to use e-wallets differ between countries Besides, perceived usefulness fully mediated government support-intention to use e-wallets relationship, and partially mediated the effect of perceived risk on intention to use e-wallets

TL;DR: In China, domestic legislation will focus on the concrete policy of promoting the cultural diversity on the one hand, and on the other hand,efforts should be made on striving for the power of discourse by the Convention in the dispute settlement as discussed by the authors.
