.This study aims to analyse the role of Financial Information Systems (FIS) in supporting risk management, decision-making, and organisational performance in the digital transformation era. This study employs the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to examine articles indexed in Scopus from 2016 to 2026. The PRISMA framework is used to ensure a systematic, transparent article selection process, resulting in the selection of 37 relevant articles for further analysis. The results of the study show that Financial Information Systems make a major contribution to improving financial transparency, operational efficiency, the quality of strategic decision-making, and organisational risk mitigation. In addition, the integration of emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), FinTech, big data analytics, and cloud computing further strengthens the effectiveness of financial information systems in modern organisations. This study contributes theoretically by mapping research trends and identifying research gaps, while providing practical benefits for organisations seeking to increase competitiveness through digital financial systems. For future research, it is recommended to develop a more predictive and intelligent Financial Information Systems model to address future business dynamics.

Cloud-native systems are essential for modern software development, offering enhanced scalability, flexibility, and resilience through cloud computing environments. However, ensuring the reliability and performance of these systems presents a challenge due to their dynamic and distributed nature. Traditional testing methods, such as unit and integration testing, while valuable for detecting individual component defects and interactions, are insufficient for predicting failure rates in complex, cloud-native applications. This study explores the effectiveness of various testing techniques and quality metrics in predicting failure rates within scalable cloud-native systems. A comparative experimental study was conducted using three primary testing techniques: unit testing, integration testing, and chaos testing. The results indicate that chaos testing, when combined with advanced quality metrics such as migration rate and mismigration rate, significantly outperforms traditional methods in predicting failure rates and evaluating system resilience. These findings suggest that chaos testing offers a more comprehensive evaluation, simulating real-world disruptions to test system behavior under stress, which is essential for cloud-native environments where high availability and fault tolerance are critical. The study also highlights the importance of integrating predictive quality metrics, which improve the accuracy of failure predictions and enhance system reliability. The study concludes that for cloud-native systems, a combination of advanced testing techniques and predictive metrics is essential for ensuring high availability, scalability, and reliability in dynamic environments. Future research should focus on refining predictive testing approaches, developing standardized frameworks, and empirically validating new testing methods to address the growing complexity of cloud-native systems.

The increasing demand for real time parallel processing in cloud computing environments necessitates the development of more efficient and fault-tolerant scheduling algorithms. Traditional scheduling methods, such as static algorithms, often fall short when handling dynamic workloads and system failures, leading to increased task latency and reduced system performance. In contrast, adaptive scheduling algorithms dynamically adjust to changes in system conditions and workloads, ensuring timely task completion and optimized resource utilization. This study evaluates the performance of adaptive scheduling algorithms in real time cloud environments, focusing on key factors such as task latency, system resilience, and fault tolerance. Simulation experiments were conducted using cloud computing models that incorporate fault injection scenarios, including network failures and virtual machine crashes. The results show that adaptive algorithms significantly outperform traditional static schedulers in terms of task latency reduction and improved system resilience. These algorithms demonstrated better fault recovery times and ensured consistent real time performance, even under failure conditions. The findings highlight the advantages of adaptive scheduling in cloud environments, particularly for applications requiring rapid data processing and high system reliability. Despite the promising results, challenges remain regarding the scalability and complexity of these algorithms in large-scale cloud systems. Further research is needed to optimize adaptive scheduling algorithms for efficiency, scalability, and comprehensive performance evaluation, taking into account factors such as energy consumption, cost, and reliability. This research contributes to advancing cloud computing infrastructures that can dynamically handle real time tasks and maintain high performance under varying workloads and failures.

Pneumonia remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, particularly in resource-limited settings and among elderly populations, where timely diagnosis and continuous monitoring are often constrained by limited clinical infrastructure. This study presents an edge–cloud–integrated framework for early pneumonia risk monitoring, leveraging multimodal wearable sensors and deep learning to support continuous short-duration monitoring. The proposed system is designed to operate in near real time under simulated deployment conditions, continuously acquiring and analyzing physiological signals (respiratory rate, heart rate, SpO₂, and body temperature) alongside event-driven acoustic biomarkers (cough sounds) within a distributed architecture. A lightweight edge module performs local signal preprocessing and anomaly triage, selectively transmitting salient information to a cloud-based multimodal deep learning model for refined risk estimation and interpretability analysis. The framework was evaluated using a multi-source dataset comprising public repositories (MIMIC-III and Coswara) and a clinically supervised wearable study conducted in two Nigerian hospitals, resulting in 718  hours of quality-controlled multimodal monitoring data. In a pooled multi-source evaluation, the system achieved an AUC of 0.95, while in a clinically realistic local-only evaluation, the AUC was 0.86, reflecting a consistent but preliminary diagnostic signal. These results highlight the importance of local data adaptation for real-world applicability and suggest that multimodal AI can provide meaningful early risk indicators under resource constraints. Beyond predictive performance, this work demonstrates the feasibility of integrating multimodal learning, edge–cloud computation, and explainable analytics into a deployment-aware, privacy-preserving monitoring framework for low-resource healthcare environments.

This study focuses on analyzing the application of cloud computing as a supporting infrastructure for digital transformation in the implementation of Smart City at the Communication and Information Agency (Diskominfo) of Muara Enim Regency. In the era of digital transformation and accelerated urbanization, the need for smart city management based on information technology has become increasingly urgent. Cloud computing plays a strategic role in providing integrated, scalable, and efficient data services to support the effectiveness of public services and data-driven decision-making. This study aims to analyze the extent to which cloud computing has been implemented in the Muara Enim Diskominfo environment, identify the supporting and inhibiting factors of its implementation, and evaluate its contribution to the achievement of Smart City objectives. This study uses a comparative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observation, and documentation studies. The results of the study show that the implementation of cloud computing at the Muara Enim Communication and Information Agency is still in the development stage, with positive achievements in data management efficiency and inter-unit collaboration, but facing obstacles in terms of system integration and human resources. This research contributes to strengthening academic understanding of cloud computing implementation strategies in the context of local government, as well as providing practical recommendations for policy makers to improve digital infrastructure readiness towards a sustainable Smart City.
