In this study, a two-stage fuzzy robust integer programming (TFRIP) method has been developed for planning environmental management systems under uncertainty. This approach integrates techniques of robust programming and two-stage stochastic programming within a mixed integer linear programming framework. It can facilitate dynamic analysis of capacity-expansion planning for waste management fac...

during pre-project planning as an essential phase of a project, fundamental decisions that lead to project success or failure will make. this phase of a project is more important essentially in oil, gas and petrochemical mega projects that tremendous amount of resources should consume. uncertainty in the initial phases of the project is at the highest level and therefore major project decisions...

Strategic planning of information systems is vital in the business environment and this is still an open issue in the management information systems research. Through planning, organisations develop effective long-term use of information systems and subsequently ensuring the support of organisational objectives. This chapter develops a contingency model for measuring the success of strategic in...

Today’s CIO is faced with an increasingly complex business environment, making the strategic management of information systems (IS) a daunting task. Technological change, shifting customer needs and wants, and the trend toward globalization are just a few of the external factors that impact IS strategy during the formulation stage. Scenario planning is a technique that has been used in strategy...

Mankind is confronted with an increasingly complex system, especially the major decision issues, such as organization and management, coordination, planning, forecasting, controlling and so on. Due to the complexity of the system, many fuzzy factors and the limitations of the existing complex giant system theory, there are still many problems to be solved. The research on the giant complex syst...

the main goal of research is designing an adaptive nuero-fuzzy inference system for evaluating the implementation of business intelligence systems in software industry. iranian software development organizations have been facing a lot of problems in case of implementing business intelligence systems. this system would be helpful in recognizing the conditions and prerequisites of success or fail...

Marketing establishes a communication network between producers and consumers. Nowadays, marketing approach is customer-focused and products are directly oriented to meet customer needs. Marketing, which is a long process, needs organization and management. Therefore strategic marketing planning becomes more and more important in today’s competitive conditions. Main focus of this paper is to ev...
