    [Purpose/Significance] Technology evolution path research has become an important reference for enterprise technology research and development decision-making. Currently, related studies focus on the relationships among common categories, co-occurrence, references, themes, and evolution but lack the in-depth exploration of causal links, especially the analysis of the mutual influence among technological events. The paper introduces the event graph and the event evolutionary graph driven by causal logic, aiming to explore the deepening causal process in the technology evolution path and analyze the complex correlation mechanism among technological events. [Method/Process] Based on ChatGLM, the paper designed prompt commands, extracted pairs of causal events from patents and scientific papers, constructed the causal event graph and the causal logic-based event evolutionary graph, and then formed coupled causal networks. The dynamic planning method and the weighted centrality algorithm were used to identify and quantify technological evolution paths and their events based on the event graph. Furthermore, the synergistic mechanism of the event graph and the event evolutionary graph were applied to the weighted influence analysis, and an innovative method for calculating the influence between pathway events was proposed. [Result/Conclusion] Causal association provides a way to reveal the influence and driving mechanisms in the process of technological evolution, which not only presents the multi-directionality and complexity of technological evolution paths but also lays the foundation for an in-depth interpretation of the interactions between path events.

    [Purpose/Significance] Data is a key production factor of the digital economy. How to release the value of data elements has become a hot topic in academia and industry. As an important mechanism to release the value of data elements, the transfer and transformation of data are proposed to provide theoretical support and a practical path for data elements’ valorization through the systematic interpretation of the three dimensions of practical origin, conceptual connotation, and theoretical framework. [Method/Process] Based on the practical dilemma of releasing the value of data elements, this paper explained the necessity of transfer and transformation of data. This article defined the concept of transfer and transformation of data and clarifies its connotation by examining the technological evolution process. Finally, it combined the three-rights division and the whole life cycle of data, and formed a systematic theoretical framework for the transfer and transformation of data. [Result/Conclusion] This paper constructs an integration framework for the transfer and transformation of data from its realization mechanism, to answer the questions of “Why do data need to transfer and transform”, “What is the transfer and transformation of data”, and “How to transfer and transform data”, and to provide referable research ideas and entry points for future research.

    [Purpose/Significance] Accelerating cross-border data flows and promoting the realization of the value of cross-border data is an important path for promoting the development of the global digital economy. Exploring the influence mechanism of cross-border data value realization helps to further promote it. [Method/Process] This study built a cross-border data value realization ecosystem structural framework based on data ecology theory. It identified the influencing factors of cross-border data value realization, constructed a system dynamics, and explored the key influencing factors through simulation analysis. [Result/Conclusion] It finds that cross-border data participant relationships and data resources differentially contribute to cross-border data value realization. Cross-border data value realization is primarily driven by data participant relations in the early stage, by both participant relationships and cross-border data resources in the middle stage, and by relationship-driven factor more strongly in the late stage. Cross-border data importance grading, cross-border data relevance and integration, data consumer’s data literacy, and cross-border data value realization participants trust are more sensitive to the influence of cross-border data value realization, positively impacting the extent of data value realization. Finally, on this basis, it proposes countermeasures for the realization of the cross-border data value.

    [Purpose/Significant] This study explores the impact of multi-attribute task types and their faceted attributes on users’ preferences for selecting different models of online health information. Furthermore, it provides a path for the design of personalized health information search, especially in the context of generative AI technology. [Method/Process] Based on the task-faceted classification theory and simulated work tasks, a quasi-experiment was designed. A total of 64 participants were recruited, and 3 497 pieces of valid health information were collected. The Fisher’s precision probability test was employed to analyze the differences in selecting single/multi-modal online health information among different types of tasks, and the Z-test was used for post-hoc analysis. [Result/Conclusion] The results show that users tend to select a limited number of single/multi-modal information when searching for online health information, with a strong convergence in their selection behavior. Different types of health tasks have significant differences in the selection ratios of single/multi-modal health information, such as text-only, text-audio, text-image, text-image-video and text-video. Based on the results, the study further proposes a preliminary theoretical model of health task type-information modality preference.
