This paper explains the process carried out in identifying the legal significance of National Digital Cadastral Database (NDCDB). The research was initially a part of a larger research exercise to identify the significance of NDCDB from the legal, technical, role and land-based analysis perspectives. The research methodology of applying the Delphi technique in this study is substantially discussed...
The Delphi technique as consensus-building tool can be used as a stand-alone tool for data collection if the participants in the exercise are also the ones to use the results, or the purpose of the data collection is to address a generic question. Otherwise, the tool should be used along with others; a focus group session has been found to be a suitable complementary tool. This research reports the...
This research provides real-time analysis and processing exploration into load rate data of main shaft of triaxial hard track machine with Industry 4.0 through case companies so as to explore the reasons affecting the abnormality of load rate data of main shaft of machine. First of all, Delphi technique expertise questionnaire is used to find out the reasons for the abnormality of load rate of main...
This paper chronicles an innovative pedagogical method for coordinating a multi-participant feasibility study in an upper division technical communication course for engineers. Centered on a Utah Legislature-commissioned report on the viability of a federal land transfer to Utah state governance, this investigation demonstrates how to guide students through the research, analysis, and consensus building...
The aim of this study is the computerization of the argument Delphi method. The Delphi method is mainly designed for qualitative prediction within a group of experts, where the experts make predictions and a facilitator controls these predictions until the experts end up with a level of consensus. Argument Delphi, as opposed to the classical Delphi model, is built on the contradictions of the ideas...
Risk is inevitable in any supply chain. Identifying and evaluating various factors that leads to supply chain risks is a multi-attribute problem. This includes both qualitative and quantitative factors and therefore an appropriate MADM technique is required for proper evaluation and assessment of these factors or attributes. In this research paper, a Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process approach is proposed...
The objective of this paper is to evaluate land suitability for sorghum using geographic information system (GIS). Terrain attributes (slope and aspect) and soil physical and chemical properties (effective soil depth, organic matter, texture, available phosphorus, available potassium, and drainage capacity) were selected using Delphi technique. The weight of each index was determined by AHP approach...
The rapid growth of e-Commerce amongst private sectors and Internet usage amongst citizens has vastly stimulated e-Government initiatives from many countries. The Thailand e-Government initiative is based on the government's long-term strategic policy that aims to reform and overhaul the Thai bureaucracy. This study attempted to identify the e-Excise success factors by employing the IS success model...
The continuous growth of the transportation sector, along with the intensified use of private mobility, has lead the Greek urban transport networks almost to saturation. The provision of travel information together with efficient travel management measures can significantly contribute to cleaner and more efficient urban networks. Travel Information Systems encompass a wide range of technologies that...
Information system is one of Information Technology divisions. The emergence of information system can be found in many areas. However, based on a report, percentage of failure for information system projects are still disturbing. In order to make an accurate evaluation regarding the status of information system in Malaysia, the definition of information system failure need to be peeled off specifically...
Knowledge and its management are considered as a foundation for creating competitive advantages in organizations. However, most of large companies have allocated plenty of resources to knowledge management; implementing knowledge management projects in an organization requires essential organizational changes. Organizational readiness in knowledge management leads to successful implementation of these...
ICT Governance's principles and its associated frameworks and methodologies are important approaches to deriving organizational value from ICT investments. Achieving strategic alignment is a major governance concern in both the private and public sectors, but many of the private sector's, financially focused evaluation methodologies are less useful in the public sector because of the broad set of...
Establishing criteria for knowledge management (KM) is important, because criteria help to establish a basis for assessing the value and evaluating its results. More importantly, the criteria will tell us what the KM outcomes are and their relevance to organizational performance. The literature review has revealed that widely accepted criteria and performance measures have not been developed for KM...
Based on the last National Assessment of Adult Literacy survey (2003) conducted by the U.S. Department of Education's National Center for Educational Statistics, an estimated 43% (93 million) of the U.S. adults age 16 and older has below or basic literacy skills . Many government agencies adopt a policy of using plain language guidelines when preparing documents for the public. This study used the...
According to the WSEIAC (Weapon System Effectiveness Industry Advisory Committee) model, an index hierarchy of ground antiaircraft missile weapon system's effectiveness has been developed, and corresponding three hierarchy BP neural network was established. It is briefly concerned with the analysis of the BP algorithm, then through Delphi technique and the FAHP (fuzzy analytical hierarchy process),...
In this work we identify important phases in managing enterprise integration projects as to obtain consensus for integration requirements, identify suitable integration solutions, and estimate the total cost of ownership with an integration project schedule. We propose an enterprise integration project management (EIPM) process where we identify the requirements of integration by modeling and analyzing...
Modern technology provides a great amount of information. But for computer monitoring systems or computer control systems, in order to have the situation in hand, we need to reduce the number of variables to one or two parameters, which express the quality and/or security of the whole system. In this paper, the authors introduce the system parameter fusion principle put forward by the third author...
