It is estimated that it will reach over 75% by 2030. Due to increase in urban population, developing countries like India are facing more problems in mega cities like uncontrolled, unauthorised, uncoordinated, and unplanned urban growth; which is often termed as urban sprawl. Urban sprawl is generally spread between urban and rural areas, which we cannot consider either in urban nor in rural often known as semi-urban areas. The semi-urban areas are in the phase of new development from rural to urban hence it attracts more urban sprawl. In this regard, we have proposed, a fuzzy pixel classification model for identification of potential areas of urban sprawl using fuzzy logic, GIS and remote sensing. This study will help urban planner, town planner, and government to identify potential areas of urban sprawl.","PeriodicalId":89681,"journal":{"name":"International journal of society systems science","volume":"10 1","pages":"171"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46820492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The efficiency of B2C e-commerce systems depends on critical success factors and the customers' priority for available B2C e-commerce websites. Thus, prioritising the alternatives of B2C e-commerce websites is important, which is a problem based on multiple-criteria decision making (MCDM). This paper developed an extended B2C e-commerce success model by including criteria such as refund policy, online reviews, valance, helpfulness and personalisation so as to represent new e-commerce world challenges. Numerical illustration is presented for prioritising the alternatives of B2C e-commerce websites on basis of extended B2C e-commerce success model using integrated analytical hierarchal process with technique of order preference by similarity to ideal solution (AHP-TOPSIS) technique. The analytical hierarchal process (AHP) is used to calculate the weights of the e-commerce success factors criteria and TOPSIS is used to obtain the final preferences.","PeriodicalId":89681,"journal":{"name":"International journal of society systems science","volume":"10 1","pages":"201"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43873724","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In predictive modelling tasks, however, the use of ratios raises difficulties, the most obvious being that, in a multivariate setting, there is no guarantee that the collection of ratios eventually selected as predictors will be optimal in any sense. Using, as starting-point, a formal characterisation of cross-sectional accounting numbers, the paper shows how the multilayer perceptron can be trained to create internal representations which are an optimal set of ratios for a given modelling task. Experiments suggest that, when such ratios are utilised as predictors in well-known modelling tasks, performance improves on that reported by the extant literature.","PeriodicalId":89681,"journal":{"name":"International journal of society systems science","volume":"10 1","pages":"110-131"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47430815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Grid functional programs usually need a great volume of distributed data or calculative sources for applying which does not usually exist in a single organisation. Nevertheless, due to the existence of the heterogeneous sources and the dynamic nature of grid, reaching a high level of functioning in this environment is so difficult. Regarding the grid environment's being heterogeneous and dynamic performing, these acts are not easy at all. Applying a MPI functional program on calculative grids needs fault tolerance and designing a middleware which conceals the nodes' being dynamic in grid for programmer. Applying the functional programs under grid is extremely susceptible of errors. So in this article all methods of tolerance including diagnosing the fault and improving fault have been surveyed as a key feature in grid contexts.","PeriodicalId":89681,"journal":{"name":"International journal of society systems science","volume":"10 1","pages":"91"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47215247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Coordinate points of crime scenes and information from key informants were the primary data. Secondary data used were administrative map and SPOT 6 satellite imagery. The results revealed that roads that were good or fair were found at the central part of the study area while roads that were bad were found toward the outskirts. Crime incidences were highly significant in areas where good roads were and insignificant in areas where bad roads were. This implied that victims were able to report crime incidence to police quickly and police were able to respond to distress call and thereby to high rate of apprehension of offenders in areas with good roads. While opposite is the situation in areas with bad roads. The study concluded that governments at all levels in Nigeria (federal, state and local governments) need to do more in road reconstruction and rehabilitation to help security agencies to perform better.","PeriodicalId":89681,"journal":{"name":"International journal of society systems science","volume":"10 1","pages":"159"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49602684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Critics frequently ignore the extraordinary set of strengths and potentiality that QDA has in the field of social science research. This paper aims to address this debate by analysing the nature and quality of the methods employed in qualitative research. It analyses and evaluates the different approaches and perspectives of QDA.

Easy availability of fuel wood and prolonged winters increases its amount and usage in hilly regions. In the present study, to identify the current status of fuel consumption pattern of rural areas in a hilly region, three villages namely Naugaon, Mawana and Kota from the Pauri district of Uttarakhand were selected. A questionnaire was prepared comprising of queries related to socio-economic status, choice of fuels for cooking, health and social awareness among women. Estimation and comparison between greenhouse gas emissions from the burning of LPG and fuel wood were made. It was observed that monthly expenditure on LPG and fuel wood use per household was almost similar. The biomass energy is the fuel of choice in the region as sustainable fuel type. The fuel choices in rural and hilly regions of developing countries have also been discussed in brief.","PeriodicalId":89681,"journal":{"name":"International journal of society systems science","volume":"10 1","pages":"56"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49021070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this study is to test and compare the two information-processing tools to find the more reliable and potentially helpful tool for policy decision making. The conclusions of this study are: 1) the soft regression tool generated more consistent and comprehensible results in comparison to the MLR method; 2) based on soft regression tool, the model displayed solid stability over extensive period under study; 3) based on MLR method, we could interpret the results as supporting the validity of the model; however, some of the results were contradictory, thus undermining the reliability of conclusions.","PeriodicalId":89681,"journal":{"name":"International journal of society systems science","volume":"10 1","pages":"16"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47023553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
