Digital transformation significantly influences public administration by integrating advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, and big data analytics across various governmental functions. In this study, the use of LDA alongside advanced bibliometric techniques such as citation analysis and co-citation networks to explore the evolution and current status of digital transformation in public administration provides a structured examination of large data sets obtained from the Web of Science, providing a thematic and intellectual insight into the field. Analyzing 628 articles, our research highlights how traditionally engineering-associated technologies are increasingly applied within the social sciences, transforming public management processes and policies. Our findings reveal that digital transformation in public administration is predominantly driven by external pressures rather than internal organizational initiatives. The importance of this study lies in its ability to map and visualize the transformative impact of digital technologies on governance structures, policy-making processes, and public engagement. Revealing that the databased, more transparent and participatory nature of public administration has increased, the study not only maps the thematic evolution of public administration but also discusses the consequences of these transformations for policy makers and public administrators. Integrating digital tools has enhanced service delivery and operational efficiency but also presents challenges, such as the need for comprehensive cybersecurity strategies and continuous adaptation to technological advancements.

Blockchain technology has a wide scope of applicability for accounting and auditing purposes, separate from Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. However, although blockchain technology is identified as a popular topic within the field, there currently exists a lack of consensus on how it will be realistically applied. This paper aims to map the presently existing international auditing literature and offer clarity to an otherwise heterogeneous field. The mapping analysis will aid in examining the underlying theme employed within studies. Through the use of the Bibliometrix R-Package "Biblioshiny", a sample of 112 studies were downloaded from the Web of Science Core Collection and analyzed. This study's results show that the topic has gained increased international popularity and separated into distinct research streams; Encrypted Private and Secure Information Sharing, Distributed Ledger, Smart Contracts, Continuous Audit, Audit Trail and Tokenization. However, there still exists a research gap that must be addressed to hasten the adoption of blockchain technology in auditing.

Yatırım değerlendirme ve kararlarında çok-kriterli karar verme yöntemleri son yıllarda yaygın olarak kullanılır hale gelmiştir. Karar sürecini olumsuz etkileyen aşırı bilgi yükü ve karmaşıklığını azaltmak için kullanılan bu yöntemler, özellikle bilgiye doymuş pazarlarda geleneksel rasyo analizlerine bir alternatif olarak sunulmuştur. SWARA-GRA entegre yaklaşımı, bir dizi kriter veya nitelik içinde mevcut en iyi yatırım alternatiflerini sunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, BİST kotasyon şartları (43 değişken) göz önüne alınarak, Yiyecek ve İçecek sektöründe faaliyet gösteren 27 şirketin 2015-2017 finansal performansı analiz edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçları, SWARA-GRA yaklaşımının yatırım değerlendirmelerine sağladığı faydalar vurgulanmaktadır. Bu yöntem sayesinde dönemsel şirket performansındaki ani hareketlerin takibi, değerlendirme kriterlerinin kullanımından ödün vermeden, kolay hale getirilmektedir. SWARA-GRA entegre yaklaşımı şirketin bütünsel görünümünü sergilediğinden dolayı bu yöntemin uygulanması yatırım kararları almakta fayda sağlayacaktır.
