It has been proved that in the era of globalization and the development of information technologies, the need to optimize the supply chain of services increases, since the integration of participants in this chain is performed without the use of modern management information systems. In the paper, with the help of logic-cognitive, structural-functional methods, structural-logical and imitation modelling, a management approach to simulation of business interaction in the integration of enterprises with elements of ERP-system and CBIP is developed and proposed, which allows you to create a flexible, adaptive and secure IT infrastructure , which increases the efficiency of the enterprise and allows you to optimize the management of relations with other participants in the service supply chain. As a result of this application of modern supply chain management systems, a synergistic effect is achieved that allows you to minimize the number of technological operations, shorten the production cycle and reduce the cost of services both for each individual enterprise and in the service supply chain as a whole.

The study has two main objectives: firstly, to examine the opportunity of the Momentum and Contrarian investment strategy for three different monetary systems to trade currencies in Forex markets using Symlet wavelet decomposition approach. Secondly, to examine the co-movements between the three monetary systems using wavelet coherence analysis. The findings indicate that an investor with momentum strategy can consider investing in Bitcoin and Gold market, while the contrarian investment strategy is more advisable for the fiat money market during crisis period. Furthermore, the wavelet coherence analysis indicates that Bitcoin currency is the most leading monetary system during the Covid-19 pandemic crisis, followed by gold. However, US dollar mostly leads Bitcoin during non-crisis periods, while Gold is found to lead the US dollar throughout the sample period of the study. This suggests that the cryptocurrency system or gold standard should be considered as the alternative monetary system for better economic stability specially during the crisis period. Moreover, Bitcoin and gold had an anti-phase correlation before the Covid-19 pandemic crisis, which implies better benefits of hedging in the non-crisis period, while during a crisis they are moving together across different horizons. In contrast, Bitcoin and Fiat Money are strongly correlated during non-crisis periods, while during covide-19 pandemic crisis the correlation is statistically insignificant. Overall, the outcomes offer significant guidance for policymakers in understanding which monetary system leads to better economic stability during the crisis period and provides many implications for market players such hedging and Diversification investments strategy in forex markets.

The purpose of this paper is to measure the relationship between the functional service recovery and technical service recovery towards customer satisfaction in banking industry. Both functional and technical is equally important in service quality especially in service recovery. The competition among the banking industry especially in major cities in Malaysia is very crucial. The study was conducted in Kuala Lumpur based on the top 10 banks based on the market share. 250 questionnaire distributed but only 212 were usable for the data analysis. The results indicated that both functional and technical service recovery plays important role towards customer satisfaction. Banking services or any financial institution should have focused on both elements in order to provide excellent services that may contribute to customer satisfaction and in the long term lead to customer loyalty

The article considers a method for solving an information asymmetry problem that is relevant for the banking sector. The authors compare bank products and services in which tariff packages are consist of different informational components. The principal feature of the proposed method is to focus on obtaining a subjective evaluation of the attractiveness of the Bank’s offers for specific target groups. This makes the proposed method relevant for Central and commercial banks, as well as for consumers of banking products. Since complex tariff packages of different banks contain not only many indicators but also different sets, it is impossible to directly compare them. The proposed method allows solving the main informational problems of traditional methods for comparing banking products. Using the Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) allows a flexible approach to the aggregation of singular indicators of tariff packages and simplifies the expert procedures. To make rules for fuzzy inference, linguistic constructions close to the natural language can be used. This makes it easier to fill the knowledge base. To solve the set tasks, a methodology for constructing hierarchical FIS is used. In comparison with non-hierarchical FIS it can reduce the requirements to the number of rules in fuzzy inference rule base and system implementation time. The experiments with the fuzzy inference system, which implements a corporate credit cards tariff packages comparison of four Ukrainian banks, showed the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The obtained numerical results are adequately interpreted for the highlighted groups of banking product consumers

The purpose of this research study is to measure the impact of governance on the organizational performance of schools in administrative, financial and pedagogical aspects. This governance approach will be approached using a methodology respecting several principles in terms of participation, transparency, accountability and evaluation (CSEFRS, 2015). Furthermore, we added in our frame of reference the primordial aspect of good governance, which is the new technologies. Considering the difficulty of an etymological and polysemic consensus on the concept of governance. It would be wise to set up operational indicators for applying this notion of governance with a perspective to enhance management skills, multi-stakeholder strategic planning, internal collaborative management, effective and efficient steering, control and evaluation. Methodology / approach: Our methodological approach based on a descriptive exploratory study. The researcher carried out an empirical study involving 20 principals of qualifying secondary schools from the Nouaceur-Casablanca region. Our measurement instrument is related to a survey which is appraised as one of the five principles of effective governance (transparency, accountability, participation, evaluation and technology). Findings: data analysis shows difficulties in applying governance principles, influencing organizational performance in administrative management. Additionally, the educational management and financial management of these establishments have seen a positive application of these governance mechanisms. It would be wise to apply the multidimensional aspects of governance, through the harmonious, complete and balanced integration of the three management mechanisms: administrative, pedagogic and financial management. The relationship between the study variables is demonstrated by the application of the five principles of governance, the results of the study recommended that we apply them to contribute significantly to improve the effectiveness of strategic planning, collaborative management and community steering.  

Opportunistic networks in the Internet of Things (IoT) scenario, also known as OppIoT, espouse IoT devices interactions opportunistically in order to improve connectivity, the lifetime of the network, and network reliability. An increase in opportunistic utilization is fostered by IoT applications to find communication opportunities whenever possible to route and deliver data efficiently. In this opportunistic scenario, devising an efficient path for data delivery is a challenging work due to uncertainty in the connection between the nodes and the selection of intermediate forwarder nodes for data delivery towards the destination. Considering the scenario of uncertainty in device location and exploiting IoT devices opportunistically, this paper propounds a routing algorithm for OppIoT called Hybrid Multi-Copy Routing Algorithm (HMCRA). The proposed algorithm finds potential forwarder nodes by using fuzzy logic wherein residual energy, distance, and speed of the nodes are considered as input values while preparing fuzzy rules. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is considered along with fuzzy logic to select an efficient path for data delivery. In GA, the delay is taken as the fitness function to select a reliable path for data delivery. Simulation results of the proposed algorithm perform well in contrast with relative existing routing algorithms with respect to latency, overhead ratio, delivery probability, and hop count. The work uniqueness lies in the selection of potential nodes and finding path having less hop count in an opportunistic IoT network scenario.

Penetration of smartphones and increasing use of social media on always-on devices has attracted the attention of enterprises and organizations to benefit from such platforms for better understanding of customers’ needs and more effectively communicate with potential consumers. For this purpose, the present study investigates the impact of social media adoption and media needs on online purchasing behavior. This study has also examined the moderating role of media type, gender and age in the relationship between variables of social media adoption and online purchasing behavior. A total of 410 questionnaires were collected on social media such as Instagram, Telegram and WhatsApp. SEM technique using PLS used as the analytical method to empirically test the proposed hypotheses. Results show that the effects of tension dimension on online purchasing behavior is mediated by social media adoption. Moreover, the effects of social media adoption on online purchasing behavior are moderated by age and medium type based on Multi-Group Analysis. The IPMA matrix shows that social media adoption had the highest importance, but the lowest performance. This study is significant in terms of innovation due to the use of new indicators effective in the area of statistical analyses. The use of FIMIX, CTA, permutation test, MGA, and IPMA matrix analyses is part of it.
