The control of the public sector costs seems more important now, in the context of the financial and fiscal crisis of 2008. Activity Based Costing (ABC) … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 4 Mar 2020 · 7,950 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Business Intelligence Competencies on the Organizational Capabilities in Jordanian BanksMohammad Atwah Al-MaaitahThis study aims to identify the role of business intelligence competencies (Managerial competencies, Technical competencies and cultural competencies) on the organizational capabilities in Jordanian banks (process improvement, innovations, flexibility, agility). Hence, a questionnaire was used to gather data to achieve the purpose of this study. Since it is difficult to cover the total population, a convenient sample was used. Therefore, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 8 · 24 Aug 2018 · 7,821 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTesting by Non-Destructive ControlRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.This paper describes an application of industrial robots that gain ground mainly in the aerospace industry. It is a TTT manipulator whose task is to automatically position the end-effector, in this case a complex sensor system and a eddy-current probe in the position set by the software application for testing by non-destructive ultrasound control of tickets and bars of titanium, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 5 Jun 2017 · 8,698 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Factors used by Farmers to Manage Risk. A Case Study on Italian FarmsAntonella Pontrandolfi, Fabian Capitanio, Felice Adinolfi, Barry GoodwinThe study analyses the strategies Italian farmers use to cope with the risks that face their production. We develop cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses as well as analyses of correlation that underline the main differences between the way farms adapt their structure and management towards risk. The expected output is an analysis of farms’ approach to risk management in relation to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 26 Apr 2016 · 7,633 accessesView PDFCite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Proton Radius PuzzleG. M. HuberOccasionally,“revolutions” are caused in physics when new measurement techniques becomeavailable and cause us to rethink what we thought we knew. This has recently happenedin the field of proton structure physics, where researchers have had to revisitfundamental assumptions used in their determinations of the proton's meanelectric charge radius. Until 2010, ourknowledge of the proton's electric charge radius came exclusively fromelectron-proton interactions. … …Physics International, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 12 Sep 2015 · 8,321 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Viewpoint for Seismotectonic ZoningReza Derakhshani, Seyed Saeed EslamiProblem statement: Seismotectonic zoning has always been used to get access to intracontinental seismic deformation whereas zoning is not enough reliable in regard with small-scale studies. Approach: This research presents a theoretical model on the basis of plate tectonic theory to introduce a new approach to conduct zoning in terms of seismic deformation. Results: The result of this research not … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 7,663 accessesView PDFCite
