Th is paper investigates the role of information technology in fi nancial reporting as well as the relationship between using information technology and its impact on the quality of fi nancial reporting. To identify the impact of information technology on quality of fi nancial reporting, a questionnaire was designed and developed. In order to test the hypotheses, T-Test, ANOVA and Duncan’s Test...

The level 1 highest weight modules of the quantum affine algebra Uq(ŝln) can be described as spaces of certain semi-infinite wedges. Using a q-antisymmetrization procedure, these semi-infinite wedges can be realized inside an infinite tensor product of evaluation modules. This realization gives rise to simple descriptions of vertex operators and (up to a scalar function) their compositions. 1 R...

The world economic image has been changing. It has been a long time since the sole important resources of an organization were financial and physical. In the newly-emerged global economy, knowledge and information are accounted as the most significant resources in order to produce value. Obviously, as the demand for knowledge to reach success is increasing day by day, maintenance and enhancemen...

The results of this study suggest that while business changes are more prevalent than technology changes during information systems development projects (ISDPs), project teams are less efficient in handling business changes than technology changes. To improve ISDP performance, project teams must increase their capabilities of managing business changes.

Although it seems to be common knowledge that it’s impossible to succeed in a project with fixed time, quality and scope, we often continue to try anyway. This experience report discusses our successful failure at running fixed time and scope projects. I say successful failure because we actually failed to fix scope but arrived at an acceptable way to vary scope and deliver on time in an enviro...

This study aimed to explore non-verbal executive processes in simultaneous interpreters. Simultaneous interpreters, bilinguals without any training in simultaneous interpreting, and control monolinguals performed the Wisconsin card sorting task (WCST; Experiment 1) and the Simon task (Experiment 2). Performance on WCST was thought to index cognitive flexibility while Simon task performance was ...

Since nature of architecture is quite different from that of other fields of study, the criteria used forjudging projects in this field continuously undergo some changes. On the other hand, because of the undeniable role ofhuman factors in judging the projects, there is always a percentage of deviation from the standard given the interestsof the judging committee. The standards of judging archi...
