Most techniques either use structural or semantic dependencies and it is observed that the use of directory information helps in improving architecture recovery. The research carried out to date has focused on using the semantic information in a very limited manner, and directory information in a trivial manner without considering directory hierarchy. Further, all three (structural, semantic, and directory-structure) are reported to be very useful in architecture recovery but have not been used in a combined manner at all. So, this paper proposes a new scheme for architecture recovery using a weighted combination of all three dependencies. A new approach is designed to effectively mine semantic dependencies and extract directory dependencies. Finally, different dependency schemes are evaluated with four clustering algorithms on three open-source projects. The obtained results show that the proposed scheme performs better than the existing approaches in architecture recovery.","PeriodicalId":289800,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Inf. Syst. Model.

This paper presents a novel methodology for automatic plant leaf disease detection using cascaded deep convolutional neural network (CDCNN) which focusses on increasing the feature representation and correlation factors. It provides distinctive features that gives low intra-class variability and higher inter-class variability. CDCNN were performed on a plant-village leaf disease database which consists of 13 classes of tomato, potato, and pepper bell plant diseases; DCNN model performs better with an overall accuracy, recall, and precision of 98.50%, 0.98, and 0.97 respectively. Additionally, performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated on real time cotton leaf database for bacterial blight, leaf miner, and spider mite diseases detection and provides 99.00% accuracy. The proposed DCNN outperforms well compared to traditional machine learning and deep learning models and is able to detect the diseases present in the leaves of the plant.","PeriodicalId":289800,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The study specifically investigated the impact of system quality and user training on ERP adoption intention. Further, the impacts of ERP adoption intention and personal innovativeness on ERP adoption were also studied. User satisfaction with ERP and user engagement were considered as the two outcomes of ERP adoption. To achieve these objectives, an online survey was conducted and data was collected from 180 ERP users across multiple industries in India to understand their perception of such matters. Structural equation modeling using the partial least square approach was used to test the proposed hypotheses. The results of SEM analysis supported all the hypotheses under investigation. These results provide relevant evidence that may encourage organizations to understand the key determinants of successful ERP adoption and its significant impacts on user satisfaction with ERP and user engagement.","PeriodicalId":289800,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The proposed methodology suggests comparing data and anomalous features of a given real time application to the data set available in the proposed workbench. Users can use the results of experiments conducted using the workbench to identify highly efficient algorithms for their application without undertaking further analysis once matching data is located in the workbench. Therefore, this research paper act as a recommendation system that enables data scientists from various fields to pick an effective outlier ensemble for their application.","PeriodicalId":289800,"journal":{"name":"Int.

To deal with this issue, version-based approach is recognized as a key notion. This approach allows defining several versions for each process to take into account the significant changes occurring to this process while keeping track of updates. Several contributions have proposed solutions based on versions to deal with process flexibility. However, to the authors' knowledge, none of them offered a version derivation approach under a design methodology to help designers to model and handle versions of processes. So, this paper recommends a design methodology based on versions, including a derivation approach to create new versions based on previously modeled ones.","PeriodicalId":289800,"journal":{"name":"Int.

With the security and autonomy that the gig sector promises, people choose to work as gig workers rather than traditional workers. Almost every company uses an enterprise resource planning system (ERPs) to some extent or the other to improve its performance and competitiveness. This paper devises a conceptual model describing how ERP systems help improve the human resource management of the gig workers, maintain customer relations, and bring digital transformation to its business. The research model would provide an understanding of diagnosing how the ERP system can help improve the conditions of the gig workers and the potential problems faced by them in the areas where the ERP system is not working efficiently. The framework would provide insights in simplifying the implementation of ERP in the gig sector that would be useful in the future.","PeriodicalId":289800,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Inf. Syst. Model.

Some of the findings include, all the three leadership styles (transformational, transactional, and laissez-faire) significantly contribute to ERP implementation success and in turn impacts Firm Performance. Transformational leadership style of change agent is found to have highest impact on Firm Performance with ERP implementation acting as a partial mediator.

The complexity of the involved structural elements and the relations among them make the specified models look oversized and fuzzy, which makes the architecture incomprehensible, hard to maintain, and difficult to assess its quality. This paper's goal is to propose a powerful methodology for simplifying and reducing models' complexity to increase understandability, smoothing maintenance, and facilitating architecture monitoring and assessment. For this purpose, the authors rely heavily on two major concepts, multi-view modeling, and incremental model projection. The multi-viewing requires that all models must have two main views to describe the architecture and the mapping to its relevant quality attributes. The incremental projection is a methodology used to specialize and minimize models progressively to make them simpler and clearer. The results show that projecting models incrementally can reduce and narrow them significantly.","PeriodicalId":289800,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Inf. Syst. Model.

After implementing the solution at the pre-fab concrete company, the authors observed a change in behavior among users, growing towards the behavior required to reach the set business objectives.
