Marketing's Role in the Change to the Metric System
نویسنده
چکیده
Practically all the nations of the world use the metric system of weights and measures. Yet the United States continues to offer goods, produced according to nonmetric standards, in the world markets in competition with metric products from other countries. The marketing aspects of the metric problem are now more important than ever: efforts to increase export trade; Britain's decision to move to the metric system; and widespread utilization of electronic data processing equipment, which uses the decimal system in calculations.

Existence and uniqueness of the solution for a general system of operator equations in $b-$metric spaces endowed with a graph
The purpose of this paper is to present some coupled fixed point results on a metric space endowed with two $b$-metrics. We shall apply a fixed point theorem for an appropriate operator on the Cartesian product of the given spaces endowed with directed graphs. Data dependence, well-posedness and Ulam-Hyers stability are also studied. The results obtained here will be applied to prove the existe...
متن کاملUniformities in fuzzy metric spaces
The aim of this paper is to study induced (quasi-)uniformities in Kramosil and Michalek's fuzzy metric spaces. Firstly, $I$-uniformity in the sense of J. Guti'{e}rrez Garc'{i}a and $I$-neighborhood system in the sense of H"{o}hle and u{S}ostak are induced by the given fuzzy metric. It is shown that the fuzzy metric and the induced $I$-uniformity will generate the same $I$-neighborhood system. ...
متن کاملSystem of fuzzy fractional differential equations in generalized metric space
In this paper, we study the existence of integral solutions of fuzzy fractional differential systems with nonlocal conditions under Caputo generalized Hukuhara derivatives. These models are considered in the framework of completegeneralized metric spaces in the sense of Perov. The novel feature of our approach is the combination of the convergentmatrix technique with Schauder fixed point princi...

Healthcare organisations are looking at strategies and activities to improve patient outcomes, beyond clinical interventions. Increasingly, health organisations are investing significant resources in leadership, management and team work training to optimise professional collaboration, shared decision-making and, by extension, high quality services. Embedded clinical aca...
متن کاملDefinition of General Operator Space and The s-gap Metric for Measuring Robust Stability of Control Systems with Nonlinear Dynamics
In the recent decades, metrics have been introduced as mathematical tools to determine the robust stability of the closed loop control systems. However, the metrics drawback is their limited applications in the closed loop control systems with nonlinear dynamics. As a solution in the literature, applying the metric theories to the linearized models is suggested. In this paper, we show that usin...
