Information technology (IT) is increasingly used in the production of services, enabling a selfserve channel that challenges the embedded relationship in services. To examine the implications of IT for embedded relationships, we undertook an interpretative case study of a remote diagnostics service in the mining industry.

Fuzzy convergence structures in the framework of L-convex spaces

In this paper,  fuzzy convergence theory in the framework of $L$-convex spaces is introduced. Firstly, the concept of $L$-convex remote-neighborhood spaces is introduced and it is shown that the  resulting category is isomorphic to that of $L$-convex spaces. Secondly, by means of $L$-convex ideals, the notion of $L$-convergence spaces is introduced and it is proved that the  category of $L$-con...
