The tremendous growth rates of Internet and volume of content stored on its servers requires the creation of tools for automatic content analysis and processing. Intelligent systems for content processing aim to simplify and automate such tasks as content analysis and classification, finding keywords and building digests, distributing content according to specified criteria. This paper presents the...
The approach for the description, control and management of the quality indicators of the software development project is proposed. The approach is based on the presentation of quality indicators using fuzzy situations equation. The system of requirements to the composition of software quality characteristics is formed. The composition and structure of the automated situational system with fuzzy logic...
This paper presents a conceptual scientific approach, blending the elements of the project management theory, i.e. three selected schools of the Perspectives on Projects (Turner, Huemann, Anbari & Bredillet, 2010), pragmatic institutional economics, and reasoned action approach, to local economy development by way of projectized household asset building activities in the case of a depressed Russian...
<bold>Background:</bold> This study examines the generic structure of corporate social responsibility (CSR) reports, which are becoming standard practice for corporate communication of social and environmental performance beyond financial disclosure. <bold>Literature review:</bold> Genre theories provide a framework for exploring genres contextualized in different cultures...
The report contains a description of the approach to the prediction of relapse by a matrix of aggregate calculator (MAC), based on the results of the theory of fuzzy sets and soft computing.
The purpose of the article is to develop and substantiate a model for assessing the index of development of sustainable marketing of the company using fuzzy approach. The main point of sustainable marketing is to achieve balance of the company's economic interests and its social and environmental responsibility. “The index of development of sustainable marketing of the company” is determined by a...
The uniqueness of the management process of complex different scale socio-economic systems at the modern stage of development calls for new methodological approaches to the problem related to creation of a strategic management system. The paper proposes a system approach to forming a prototype of a strategic management system.
This paper will help the linguists find an easy method to facilitate the creation of a standard Arabic historical dictionary in order to save time and to be up to date with the other languages. In this method, we propose a platform of Automatic Natural Language Processing (ANLP) tools which permits the automatic indexing and research from Arabic texts corpus. Some pretreatments are done before the...
Supplier selection and evaluation plays an importance role for companies to gain competitive advantage and achieve the objectives of the whole supply chain. To select the appropriate suppliers, many qualitative and quantitative criteria are needed consider in the decision process. Therefore, supplier selection and evaluation can be seem as a multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) problem in vague environment...
In recognition of an existing Cartesian perspective in practice and research of product and service as two distinct entities in product-centric MNEs, an integral perspective of the product-service innovation processes is introduced in the form of the Götheborg IV (G4) model. Based on the assumption that the core activity of any enterprise is exchange, where the value of production is realized in its...
This article presents a goal programming approach to solve group decision making problems where decision-makers' judgments are provided as multiple incomplete preference relations, including incomplete fuzzy preference relations, incomplete multiplicative preference relations, incomplete interval multiplicative preference relations and incomplete linguistic preference relations. The proposed approach...
The calculation of the premium cost of an option exchange is usually computed by the different mathematical models that obtain the degree of uncertainty in the financial market by Black-Scholes method though such a degree is inaccurate. In order to improve the management of uncertainty the use of fuzzy logic makes possible to capture a better reality of the derivatives market in an uncertain environment...
Globalisation is one of the key terms used to describe actual trends as positive, but there are many aspects of this concept that should be carefully considered, such as people's cultural identity. Africa is one of the most diverse and culturally rich continents in the world, something that is not widely known. Heritage is one of the building blocks of cohesion and solidarity of the society and in...
This paper presents a multi-criteria group decision model for internet public opinion emergency with linguistic assessments involved with multiple emergency experts based on the minimum principle of weighted deviation between each network public opinion emergency and the extreme emergency. By using the proposed emergency decision model we can easily obtain the optimal weight of each decision index...
Inventory is carrying high risk and high benefit as a supply chain management system. A shortage or lack of supplying sufficient inventory can disrupt manufacturing plan. Inventory management plays an important role to avoid shortage or ending up with overstock. The most important task of inventory management is making trade-off between the minimization of the total cost and maximization of the customer...
In the current economic conditions the innovation performance measurement is a driving force of innovation system development of technologically advanced industrial enterprises. The aim of the article is to review different approaches to innovation performance measurement and problems associated with their measurements, to provide a system of fuzzy inference for solving the problem of obtaining guidance...
We take more measures to avoid a situation if it is going to cost us dearly. We take precautions or insure us against risk for these scenarios. The cost of treatment of chronic disease like diabetes increases with disease progression. If patients have right awareness of economic burden of the disease they were more likely to adhere to treatment goals. This will result in lesser number of diabetic...
Respondents cannot always explicitly state which numeric value or linguistic term is the most suitable to express their opinions. However, the answers are mainly stored in classical relational databases forcing answers to be crisp values. In this way the valuable information related to the vagueness of opinions is lost. In order to avoid this drawback, the data should be stored in a database capable...
This part of the paper discusses after the broad areas (suiting the three background languages which were recommended by Pauli) of the ‘mythological world’, the ‘physical cosmos’ and the depth psychology, which gained a really worthy representation in the three great minds (Pauli, Jung and Kerényi), and the fourth one, bounded to the city of Zurich. The fourth key area is linked to the models of cosmic...
The supplier selection process of a company depends on numerous criteria which can have differing importance factors. Solving this kind of multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) problem is essential for the long-term strategy of a company. While this problem is examined numerous times throughout the years, the consideration of involving economic, social and environmental factors, i.e. sustainability...
