In recent years, small and medium enterprises worldwide have increasingly adopted digital technologies and cloud computing. The pace of this digital transition has varied across countries, and the socioeconomic conditions during the pandemic have further accelerated the digitalization of enterprises. This situation calls for an examination of the reasons, benefits, and risks associated with enterprises adopting cloud computing in different settings. Our study aimed to collect longitudinal data from 71 Montenegrin micro, small, and medium enterprises. We conducted a repeated measurement study with two measurement periods: 2017 and 2023. The quantitative results were analyzed alongside qualitative data from a semi-structured interview (N = 15) conducted in 2023. The findings revealed substantial shifts in SME attitudes towards cloud computing, highlighting key catalysts and influencing factors such as security, technological accessibility, external expertise, effort expectations, privacy, social influence, perceived security and safety, ease of use, and usefulness. These factors were examined in the context of global digital innovation, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and recent cyberattacks that disrupted national e-services in Montenegro for 3–9 months. The findings provide new insights into how enterprises can become more prepared to effectively use cloud computing.

The digitization and general industrial development of Montenegro is a great challenge for engineering and science due to its special characteristics. As the accession of Montenegro to the European Union has been an ongoing agenda for over a decade now, and the accession of the country is expected by 2025, adapting the interconnectivity and smart automation of Industry 4.0 plays an essential role in reducing the current gap between Montenegro and EU member states. In this paper, we investigate the present and potential future digitization efforts in the fields of Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS), agriculture, and healthcare in Montenegro. Our work takes into consideration the characteristics of the country and analyzes the considerations and implications regarding the deployment of state-of-the-art technologies in the investigated fields.

Montenegro restored its national independence in 2006, and in the 17 years since then, the country has made significant progress in digital transformation, which is especially important for its accession to the European Union. In this paper, this period of 17 years of Montenegrin digital transformation is reviewed. The work aims to provide comprehensive coverage of the digitization processes across all relevant sectors, including healthcare, education, telecommunications and internet, personal and public transportation, tourism, agriculture, energy and sustainability, and public administration. The human-centric nature of digitization is emphasized where relevant, as well as related future trends. This paper also highlights barriers and limitations, such as the lack of consideration for cooperative intelligent transportation systems in national strategies, and user-related issues in digital public administration.

Business process model families (BPMF) provide collective representation of business processes that can be defined for a target domain of interest. They enable rapid development of appropriate business processes by quick BPMF configuration based on the stakeholders’ needs and preferences. In this paper we propose a novel framework for user-centric quality-driven configuration of business process model families capturing different kinds of non-functional preferences and solving the optimal BPMFs configuration problem. Focusing on the following key elements: Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), and its extension known as CS-AHP, Fuzzy logic and Genetic Algorithms; the framework maximizes the degree of satisfaction of defined non-functional preferences while simultaneously preserving the behavioural correctness of each derived business process. Furthermore, we provide extensive analyses of the proposed framework from three different perspectives: accuracy assessment, analysis of the impact of different variability and uncertainty elements, and comparison with respect to the published literature. Empirical analyses in this paper indicated that the proposed approach outperforms competitors. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.itc.47.3.18652
