Examination of interest of things adoption among aquaculturist in Malaysia

The IoT (internet of things) in Malaysia is still in its infancy stage and the reason to explain the acceptance as well as the understanding of the actual usage level of IoT services remains unclear. Various models have been developed and proposed to increase the understanding of this issue. The pr...
