A deeper understanding of cloud computing is required to accelerate its adoption and leverage cost, performance, reliability, security. However, information about the combined effect factors influencing using traditional statistical methods limited. Based on a literature review firms’ computing, we identified 12 determinants explore how antecedent influence by small medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). We used symmetric asymmetric techniques analyze data from 203 Chinese SMEs. The partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) assessed net impact each antecedent, fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) provided supplementary highlighting configurations causal conditions associated with adoption. PLS-SEM results show that security concerns, top management support, IT competence, competitive pressure, trading partner provider support SMEs’ decisions adopt computing. Interestingly, fsQCA provides complex causality does not capture. That is, revealed seven resulting in high-level eight paths leading negation These findings indicate several no significant were adequate when other configurations. complementary provide theoretical practical insights.

Abstract Digital assistant is a recent advancement benefited through data-driven innovation. Though digital assistants have become an integral member of user conversations, but there no theory that relates perception towards this AI powered technology. The purpose the research to investigate role technology attitude and attributes in enhancing purchase intention assistants. A conceptual model proposed after identifying three major factors namely, perceived anthropomorphism, intelligence, animacy. To test model, study employed structural equation modeling using 440 sample. results indicated anthropomorphism plays most significant building positive built technology-related variables, hypotheses are based on various psychology-related theories such as uncanny valley theory, mind, developmental psychology, cognitive psychology theory. study’s theoretical contributions discussed within scope these theories. Besides contribution, also offers illuminating practical implications for developers marketers’ benefit.
