researchers in their reviewing of international market literature which practical experiences in iran indicate it demonstrate that to choose a foreign market there are two approaches: expansion and systematic approach. firms that use expansion approach, through the culturally and geographically similar markets starts working in international markets. however, in systematic approach, firms use a...

each customer or consumer communicates with different markets with a specific decision-making style and these styles approximately remain constant over time. this research is done between tehran home appliance store customers with the aim of identifying the sproles and kendall’s model decision-making styles. sproles and kendall’s model has identified eight different decision-making styles, whic...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a mathematical programming method in operations research that can be used to distinguish between efficient and inefficient decision making units (dmus). however, the conventional dea models do not have the ability to rank the efficient dmus. this article suggests bootstrapping method for ranking measures of technical efficiency as calculated via non-radial mod...

this paper presents a multi-attribute decision-making model to rank and select the best zones of the city of tehran in order to add new emergency services. the purpose of this decision-making problem is to prioritize the zones having a higher need to emergency services, so that the emergency services to people in different zones get optimized. a multi-criteria decision making model is presented...

in this paper, first, a conceptual framework has been developed and while truly recognizing different aspects of the technology transfer process, it is trying to introduce a decision-making methodology in the choice of projects. then by choosing effective variables in technology transfer process, a multiple criteria decision-making (mcdm) model has been designed, so that the choice of appropria...

in this article, we will estimate efficiency amountof decision-making unit by offering the continuous piecewise polynomialextrapolation and interpolation by ccr model input-oriented on the assumptionthat it is constant returns to scale in different times. and finally, we willestimate efficiency amount of decision-making unit indifferent times byoffering an example.

“rational choice model” is one of the economics theories which developed into sociology, politics, and anthropology and was applied to understand and justify some phenomena.  according to this hypothesis, the basis of decision making is improvements, enjoyment and suffering disposal. people always do all necessary calculations in each and every decision making and then adopt a rational decision...
