today, a correct understanding and skills necessary to reform affairs as well as a culture based on knowledge and continuous learning in the organizations are important elements in the management of sports organizations. so the present study aimed to investigate the relationship between triple management skills (conceptual, humanistic, technical) and organizational learning in managers of physi...

It is commonly agreed that project management competence is a critical success factor for project based organizations. However, there is not sufficient research in literature to develop objective analytical methods to identify required project management skill level for a project. In practice, practitioners still need an effective methodology to determine competence level needed to manage a par...

The goal of personalization is to deliver information that is relevant to an individual or a group of individuals in the most appropriate format and layout. In the OLAP context personalization is quite beneficial, because queries can be very complex and they may return huge amounts of data. Aimed at making the user’s experience with OLAP as plain as possible, in this paper we propose a proactiv...

In fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (fuzzy AHP) method, it is difficult to ensure a consistent pairwise comparison. Furthermore, establishing a ...

The integration of multidimensional data and machine learning seems to be natural in the area of business intelligence. On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) tools are frequent in this area where the data are usually represented in multidimensional datamarts and data mining tools are integrated in some of these tools. However, the efforts for a full integration of data mining and OLAP tools have...

This study proposes a new approach to identifying core technologies from a perspective of technological cross-impacts based on patent co-classification information with consideration of the overall interrelationships among technologies. The proposed approach is comprised of two methods: association rule mining (ARM) and the analytic network process (ANP). Firstly association rule mining (ARM) i...

Most decision-making and problem-solving tasks are too complex to be understood quantitatively. People perform such tasks using knowledge that is imprecise rather than precise. This study presents consistent fuzzy linguistic preference relations rather than fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) to select computer integrated manufactory (CIM) systems. The proposed method yields decision matric...
