Simulation frameworks are necessary to facilitate decision-making many fire agencies. An accurate estimation of behavior is required analyze potential impact and risk. Applied research technology together have improved the implementation modeling, in operational environments.

The prevalence of mobile phones and wearable devices enables the passive capturing modeling human behavior at an unprecedented resolution scale. Past research has demonstrated capability sensing to model aspects physical health, mental education, work performance, etc. However, most algorithms models proposed in previous follow a one-size-fits-all (i.e., population modeling) approach that looks...

The co-operation of several providers is still a challenge for IT Service Management. Currently, established IT Service Management approaches presume a hierachical organisational model. The growing complexity of novel IT services demands the development of alternative ways of provider collaboration. In our PhD thesis we focus on management problems raised by non-hierarchical co-operation in a m...

The purpose of this study is to investigate the existence of a patient safety chain for hospitals. Drawing on high reliability organization theory, multifactor leadership theory and total quality management literature, we develop and test a model for improving patient safety – a critical issue facing hospitals today. Specifically, we hypothesize that improving patient safety begins at the highe...

this research aimed to explain idea submitting behavior in organization suggestion system in telecommunication company of khorasan-razavi province. social cognitive theory (sct) was used to conceptualize a research model as the basis for our research. for this purpose, a theoretical model designed and developed to investigate and explain the relationships between contextual factors, personal pe...

Knitted fabrics are widely used by the underwear apparel industry due to their good elasticity. Modeling the mechanical behavior of knitted fabrics using Kelvin model is one of the discussed subjects in the textile industry. The purpose of this study is to investigate the accuracy of a nonlinear Kelvin model for determining the drying behavior of knitted fabrics. To fulfill this aim, genetic al...
