the aim of this study was to investigate the role of customer knowledge management in creating competitive advantage from the perspective of tractorsazi tabriz fans. method was descriptive - correlation. cluster random sampling method was used to select sample. 450 questionnaires were usable after collection. sharon lawson (2003) knowledge management questionnaire and hoseini (2010) competitive...

The ratio of divalent to monovalent ion concentration necessary to displace the surface-active protein, albumin, by lung surfactant monolayers and multilayers at an air-water interface scales as 2(-6), the same concentration dependence as the critical flocculation concentration (CFC) for colloids with a high surface potential. Confirming this analogy between competitive adsorption and colloid s...

Any modern organization hoping to retain a competitive advantage must be capable of integrating knowledge. Recent studies have explored various factors that may affect knowledge integration in information systems development (ISD) projects. Although diversity within an ISD team has been found to significantly reduce knowledge resource risks, it has also been found to lead to conflict which may ...

In this paper, the pattern formation of the attraction-repulsion Keller-Segel (ARKS) system is studied analytically and numerically. By the Hopf bifurcation theorem as well as the local and global bifurcation theorem, we rigorously establish the existence of time-periodic patterns and steady state patterns for the ARKS model in the full parameter regimes, which are identified by a linear stabil...

A very undesirable behavior of any heuristic algorithm is to be stuck in some specific parts of the search space, in particular in the basins of attraction of the local optima. While there are many wellstudied methods to help the search process escape a basin of attraction, it seems more difficult to prevent it from looping between a limited number of basins of attraction. We introduce a Positi...

Knowledge of how insects are actually affected by sex pheromones deployed throughout a crop so as to disrupt mating has lacked a mechanistic framework sufficient for guiding optimization of this environmentally friendly pest-control tactic. Major hypotheses are competitive attraction, desensitization, and camouflage. Working with codling moths, Cydia pomonella, in field cages millions of times ...

We investigate the global dynamics of solutions of two distinct competitive rational systems of difference equations in the plane. We show that the basins of attraction of different locally asymptotically stable equilibrium points are separated by the global stable manifolds of either saddle points or of non-hyperbolic equilibrium points. Our results give complete answer to Open Problem 1 posed...

The Abbott TDx therapeutic drug-monitoring system is based on fluorescence polarization. Polarization fluoroimmunoassay makes use of competitive binding, measuring the tracer binding directly, without the need for separation procedures. The attraction of non-radioactive polarization fluoroimmunoassay for the determination of T-uptake is that there is no radiation hazard and that the homogeneous...
