Where business meets technology - short-form research at the intersection of MIS, analytics, and digital innovation.
The AIBA IT Club Working Paper Series publishes short-form scholarly works at the intersection of business, technology, analytics, innovation, and digital transformation.
We sit inside a business school, so our identity is deliberate: technology for business, not computer science for its own sake. The series captures end-of-semester work that connects management, data, and digital systems - and would otherwise live and die inside a graded folder.
Every accepted paper is reviewed by a faculty-led editorial board, paired with an ORCID iD, registered with a permanent DOI under the CCPM framework operated by CFSBR, and hosted open access. Students leave each issue with a citable artifact for a CV, a graduate application, or a personal site.

From Issue 01 · 2026
Six peer-reviewed, DOI-registered working papers from this semester's cohort: faculty-approved, open access, ready to cite.
An empirical review of 2024–2025 remittance flows shows a 14% migration from formal hawala channels into USDC-denominated settlement rails. We map regulatory posture across four jurisdictions and quantify cost compression for senders below the USD 200 ticket.
Drawing on interviews with seven production leads, we reconstruct the bottlenecks that delayed forty-one monographs during Q3 2025 and propose a two-track scheduling model that the press has since adopted at near-zero capex.
Benchmarking a 3.8B-parameter open model across nine ARM SoCs, we surface a non-linear relationship between sustained TOPS and tokens-per-second once thermal throttling enters the picture, and translate the result into unit-economics guidance for mobile-first fintechs.
We argue that university procurement contracts, rarely scrutinised in repair-policy debates, are the cheapest available instrument for extending device lifecycles, and we draft three clauses ready for institutional adoption.
Triangulating household expenditure data with a sample of 312 tutor-supplier interviews, we estimate the Dhaka private-tutoring market at USD 410M annually and characterise its price elasticity in the post-pandemic period.
A six-month deployment of CCPM v1.0.0 at a 4,200-student campus shows that lightweight DOI registration and ORCID verification can be operated by a three-person editorial board without recourse to enterprise repository platforms.

How it works
Frontend autonomy, centralised ingestion. The club owns its branding and hosting; CFSBR runs the metadata pipeline and Crossref deposit.
Club editorial team reviews the draft; faculty advisor signs the approval letter.
Issue landing page goes live on the club's own domain using the CCPM boilerplate.
Title, authors, ORCID, abstract, and the public PDF URL are packaged for ingestion.
CFSBR validates metadata, runs the XML/JSON build, and queues for Crossref deposit.
A permanent DOI is registered within 24 hours and resolves to the club's hosted PDF.
DOI prefix 10.67226 · Pattern [club_id].[series].[year].[issue].[serial]
Submissions open · Issue 02
A 3–8 page working paper plus a faculty approval letter. We handle DOI, ORCID, and open-access hosting.
