چکیده

In an age dominated by information, information quality (IQ) is one of the most important factors to consider for obtaining competitive advantages. The general approach to the study of IQ has relied heavily on management approaches, IQ frameworks and dimensions. There are many IQ measures proposed, however dimensions in most frameworks are analyzed and assessed independently. Approaches to aggregate values have been discussed, by which foremost research mostly suggests to estimate the overall quality of information by total all weighted dimension scores. In this paper, we review the suitability of this assessment approach. In our research we focus on IQ dependencies and trade-offs and we aim at demonstrating by means of an experiment that IQ dimensions are dependent. Based on our result of dependent IQ dimensions, we discuss implications for IQ improvement. Further research studies can build on our observations.

Intuitionistic Fuzzy Information Measures with Application in Rating of Township Development

Predominantly in the faltering atmosphere, the precise value of some factors is difficult to measure. Though, it can be easily approximated by intuitionistic fuzzy linguistic term in the real-life world problem. To deal with such situations, in this paper two information measures based on trigonometric function for intuitionistic fuzzy sets, which are a generalized version of the fuzzy informat...
