This paper offered a procedure for ranking the entrepreneurial and innovative indicators using Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM), taking into account three individual,organizational and cultural dimensions simultaneously in decision making procedure. Henceforward, by using the Meta synthesis framework, the form of group classification of indicators from afinding’s combination was suggested ...

When meta-analysing intervention effects calculated from continuous outcomes, meta-analysts often encounter few trials, with potentially a small number of participants, and a variety of trial analytical methods. It is important to know how these factors affect the performance of inverse-variance fixed and DerSimonian and Laird random effects meta-analytical methods. We examined this performance...

This paper presents the program synthesis system IOSS (Integrated Open Synthesis System). It is based on the concept of strategy as a uniform representation of development knowledge making the integration of diierent synthesis methods possible. The implemented system is an instantiation of a generic system architecture designed to provide machine support for the application of formal methods in...

Global and regional economic and environmental changes are increasingly influencing local land-use, livelihoods, and ecosystems. At the same time, cumulative local land changes are driving global and regional changes in biodiversity and the environment. To understand the causes and consequences of these changes, land change science (LCS) draws on a wide array synthetic and meta-study techniques...

BACKGROUND Network meta-analysis, a method to synthesise evidence from multiple treatments, has increased in popularity in the past decade. Two broad approaches are available to synthesise data across networks, namely, arm- and contrast-synthesis models, with a range of models that can be fitted within each. There has been recent debate about the validity of the arm-synthesis models, but to dat...

the synthesis and characterization a new derivatives of 2'-iodo-meta terphenyl from the reaction ofexcess aryl-grignard and 2, 6- dichloroiodobenzene with quenching of m-terphenyl-2'-magnesiumbromide by iodine is reported. via the reactions three carbon-carbon bonds are constructed and mterphenylsare obtained in good yields.
