Taking into consideration technology acceptance factors, website service quality and specific holdup cost factors, this research explores how shopping websites to establish their competitive advantages through these dimensions. We begin with an examination of the literature on shopping websites about its competitive advantages upon which we propose a conceptual framework. Then this research ado...

I4.0 promotes a future in which highly individualized goods are mass produced at competitive price through autonomous, responsive manufacturing. In order to attain market competitiveness, organizations require proper integration of technologies and manufacturing strategy outputs (MSOs). Implementing such comprehensive relies on carefully selecting meet industrial requirements. There is little c...

In recent years, the mobile devices are equipped with several wireless interfaces in heterogeneous environments which integrate a multitude of radio access technologies (RAT’s). The evolution of these technologies will allow the users to benefit simultaneously from these RAT’s. However, the most important issue is how to choose the most suitable access network for mobile’s user which can be use...

Safety culture plays an important role in the prevention of accident. Positive safety culture can effectively improve worker’s safety conscious and reduce the accident rate. This paper is aimed to present a fuzzy decision making method for objectively evaluating enterprise safety culture construction level. Based on evaluation indicators of safety culture construction level, combination weighti...

this paper evaluates and ranks the temporal dimensions, known as fourth dimension of urban design, of a number of places in a city by topsis method. topsis method is technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution. topsis is one of the renowned methods for classical multi-criteria decision-making (mcdm) problems that defines the positive ideal solution and negative ideal solution...

Distributor selection plays an important role in the supply chain management, particularly in the current competitive environment. The recent researches are mainly focused on the conceptual, descriptive and simulation. However, analyzing qualitative information is difficult by standard statistical analysis, which means that a proper quantitative method is desired for distributor selection in fu...

In this study, we present an integrated method of Analytical Hierarchy Process based on interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2FAHP) and Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution based on on interval type-2 fuzzy sets (IT2FTOPSIS). The applicability of the proposed integrated method was performed on a case study of evaluation of life quality for 28 European Union Countries and oth...

<span lang="EN-US">This paper proposes a method to rank the loads in microgrid by means of weight that combines criteria together terms both technical and economic aspects. The fuzzy analytic hierarchy process technique for order preference similarity ideal solution (fuzzy AHP TOPSIS) algorithm is used calculate this combined weight. be considered are load importance factor (LIF), voltage...

Multi attribute decision making methods are considered as one of the most useful methods for solving ranking problems. In some decision making problems, while the alternatives for corresponding criteria are compared in a pairwise comparison manner, if the criteria are inherently fuzzy, debates will arise in ranking alternatives due to the closeness of the values of the criteria. In this researc...
