Item Open Access How E-commerce Succeeds: The Role of Information Systems in Boosting Customer Satisfaction(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025) Pathirana, S.L; Pathirana, S.J; Boyagoda, G.S.B; Thalagala, S.M.K; Wisenthige, K; Aluthwala, CThe rapid growth of e-commerce has revolutionized consumer behavior, especially among Millennials and Generation Z, who increasingly rely on online platforms for their purchases. This paper shows the impact of information systems success on individual performance outcomes in e-commerce, focusing on the DeLone and McLean information system success model and its three key dimensions: system quality, information quality, and service quality. A quantitative survey method was employed to gather data from e-commerce users in the western province of Sri Lanka, which is an economically developed region where Millennials and Generation Z are highly engaged with international and local e-commerce platforms. The study uses PLS-SEM to identify that system, information, and service quality significantly increase customer satisfaction and thereby improve individual performance in e-commerce. The study will address the significant research gap in Sri Lanka, where the rapid growth of e-commerce has not been adequately studied in terms of the impact of information and individual outcomesItem Embargo The Influence of Generative AI on work-life balance among female software professionals in Sri Lanka(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2025) Upeksha, S; Samarasinghe, D.T; Sanochana, M; Samarathunga, S.S; Rajamanthri, L; Samarakkody, T; Aluthwala, CThis study explores the role of generative artificial intelligence on work-life balance among female software professionals in Sri Lanka's software industry. This qualitative study explores the influence of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) tools on workload, productivity, and overall well-being to show how these technologies uniquely shape professional and personal lives within this demographic group. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with 15 female software professionals from various job roles, including software engineers, quality assurance engineers, system engineers, Development and Operations (DevOps) engineers, and project managers. Using thematic analysis, findings disclose that generative AI is mostly utilized for automation, communication and collaboration, creativity and innovation, and decision support, with ChatGPT being the most widely used tool. These tools will enable professionals to streamline the workload, increase efficiency, reduce overtime, and maintain healthy working conditions. The insights of this study yield important implications for employers and government organizations such as the Department of Labor, explicitly pointing out how generative AI can be instrumented to create a favorable work environment. Thus, by applying generative AI solutions, the key stakeholders of the Sri Lankan software industry can create work conditions crucial for the work-life balance of women to enhance organizational performance as well as the work-related well-being of female software professionals.
