The vendor firm’s body of knowledge (BoK) has been considered to be vital in IT outsourcing success since outsourcing is considered as flow of knowledge especially from vendor firms to client firms. However, previous researches mostly focused on the client firms’ perspective and less attention on vendor firms and their knowledge bases. In this paper, we investigated the impact of vendor IT firm...

in this paper we develop a natural generalization of schauder basis theory, we term operator-valued basis or simply ov-basis theory, using operator-algebraic methods. we prove several results for ov-basis concerning duality, orthogonality, biorthogonality and minimality. we prove that the operators of a dual ov-basis are continuous. we also dene the concepts of bessel, hilbert ov-basis and obt...

Since it is well-known that the Vandermonde matrix is ill-conditioned, while the interpolation itself is not unstable in function space, this paper surveys the choices of other new bases. These bases are data-dependent and are categorized into discretely l2-orthonormal and continuously L2-orthonormal bases. The first one construct a unitary Gramian matrix in the space l2(X) while the late...

Decision making under risk entails the anticipation of prospective outcomes, typically leading to the greater sensitivity to losses than gains known as loss aversion. Previous studies on the neural bases of choice-outcome anticipation and loss aversion provided inconsistent results, showing either bidirectional mesolimbic responses of activation for gains and deactivation for losses, or a speci...

Cloud computing is a recent computing paradigm that represents a fundamental change of information commu- nication technology (ICT) services and Cloud services continue to grow rapidly with increasing functionality and more users. As a result of this growth, it is a critical issue to select a suitable Cloud service which meets all the business strategies and the objectives of firms. This paper ...
