Abstract The primary purpose of this work is to provide an overview and comparative analysis various Information System Audit Quality measures, as well test the validity chosen measurement scale empirically. In regard, a thorough literature study was undertaken, followed by empirical research, reliability were tested. Based on identified papers, questionnaire created evaluated panel experts. Fo...

assessing the quality of groundwater is important to ensure the sustainablesafe use of these resources. however, describing the overall water quality condition isdifficult due to the spatial variability of multiple contaminants and the wide range ofindicators (chemical, physical and biological) that could be measured. therefore, in thiscase study, some water quality parameters including na, mg,...

this study had been performed to analyzing relationship between performance management and service quality because of develop the banks service quality by means of improve specific sides of the performance management. the pma method was used for analyzing the performance management at isfahan melli bank and the systra-sq scale was used for assessing the service quality at there. in order to rel...

Even in a world of agile methods and Internet-time processes, quality is a crucial attribute of software. A number of explanatory factors for software quality have been proposed, but the empirical evidence on the effect of these factors has been mixed. One reason for the mixed evidence is that surrogates are frequently used that capture the desired factor poorly. For example, it is widely agree...

The dissipation of mechanical energy in 250-nm-thick, MHz-range silicon resonators is found to be strongly dependent on the chemical nature of the surface. As a result, sub-monolayer changes in the termination of 250-nm-thick resonators lead to significant changes in quality (Q) factor. The chemical origins of this effect are under investigation. Strategies for the formation of arbitrarily func...

The purpose of this study was to examine several factors of vocal quality that might be affected by changes in vocal fold vibratory patterns. Four voice types were examined: modal, vocal fry, falsetto, and breathy. Three categories of analysis techniques were developed to extract source-related features from speech and electroglottographic (EGG) signals. Four factors were found to be important ...

Data pertaining to nonmotion factors affecting ride quality of transport aircraft have been obtained as part of NASA in-house and sponsored research studies carried out onboard commuter-airline and research aircraft. From these data, quantitative effects on passenger discomfort of seat width, seat legroom, change in cabin pressure, and cabin noise are presented. Visual cu_ effects are also disc...

Introduction: Since the early 60s, in our lab we sought useful correlations of seminal traits and fertility in order to ultimately predict the reproductive outcome of bovine semen used in artificial breeding or the fertility of a specific male under natural service. Despite these efforts, to this day we can only account for approximately 50-60% of the variation in fertility among males by measu...
