This study examines the effect of a corporate citizenship-oriented high-performance work system (CC-oriented HPWS) and interactive influence CC-oriented HPWS person-organization fit (PO fit) on creativity at individual level. Our analysis field data collected from 303 employees in two branch companies with two-phase collection method provides empirical support for our theoretical model. The res...

Nowadays organizations require an effective governance framework for their service-oriented architecture (SOA) in order to enable them to use a framework to evaluate their current state governance and determine the governance requirements, and then to offer a suitable model for their governance. Various frameworks have been developed to evaluate the SOA governance. In this paper, a brief introd...

in spite of pivotal position of effectiveness construct in organizational theory this concept has been appropriately developed yet and there is less consensus on the criteria for its definition in organization. the varieties of effectivenss models and approaches to its utilization are many. discussion on preferring one model of effectiveness to another is a continuous process. for instance advo...

The realization of complex distributed applications, required in areas such as e-Business, e-Government, and ambient intelligence, calls for new development paradigms, such as the Service Oriented Computing approach which accommodates for dynamic and adaptive interaction schemata, carried on on a per-to-peer level. Multi Agent Systems offer the natural architectural solutions to several require...

This paper presents the implementation of a simulator application for feed forward neural networks which was made in Qt application framework. The paper demonstrates the object oriented design and the performance of the software. The main topics cover the class organization and some test results where the Matlab neural network toolbox was used as reference. Keywords— Neural network; Function ap...

The requirements engineering (RE) process is a decision-rich complex problem solving activity. This paper examines the elements of organization-oriented macro decisions as well as process-oriented micro decisions in the RE process and illustrates how to integrate classical decision-making models with RE process models. This integration helps in formulating a common vocabulary and model to impro...

Service orientation promotes a new way to design and implement large scale distributed applications across organizational and technical boundaries. However, it does not provide sufficient means to cope with the increasing complexity in service-oriented software applications. A promising way to get rid of the dilemma is to enable self-organization in service oriented computing (Gonzalez, 2005) (...

Production systems design is critical to achieving manufacturing performance and objectives. Although generic approaches to this design are available they may not be able to objectively address specific manufacturing configurations. Here it is argued that product oriented manufacturing (POM) organization offers advantages in relation to the function oriented one. Based on this, a methodology sp...

Providing a methodological support for designing software, separation of concerns particularly suits the emerging model paradigm. This paper elaborates on concern-oriented modeling, an approach in which the organization of models and meta-models is based on preoccupations. After a description of an annotation-based framework for modeling concerns, this paper focuses on related model transformat...
