Purpose This study aims to examine managers’ perceptions of digital banking’s (DB) effect on customer experience and banks’ financial performance. Design/methodology/approach The research uses interviews from the senior UK bank managers gather their views DB’s impact were thematically analysed produce results a model. Findings attributes affecting DB are as follows: service quality, functional perceived value, customisation, speed, employee–customer engagement, brand trust, innovation,...
In this study, we extend the global-scale Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) to develop local SSPs as a tool inform adaptation decisions (a so-called 'climate service') for city of Flensburg, Germany. Flensburg experiences regular coastal flooding during storm events, which is expected increase with sea-level rise (SLR). To robust strategies under uncertainties future SLR and socioeconomic development in city, scenarios can help explore plausible conditions how these drive strategies. We...
In systems composed of multiple autonomous agents, negotiation is a key form interaction that enables groups agents to arrive at mutual agreement regarding some belief, goal or plan, for example. Particularly because the are and cannot be assumed benevolent, must influence others convince them act in certain ways, thus critical managing such inter-agent dependencies. The process may many different forms, as auctions, protocols style contract net, argumentation, but it unclear just how...
The KRAFT project aims to investigate how a distributed architecture can support the transformation and reuse of particular class knowledge, namely constraints, fuse this knowledge so as gain added value, by using it for constraint solving or data retrieval.
With the rapid development of technology and increasing use social networks, many opportunities for design deployment interconnected systems arise that could enable a paradigm shift in ways we interact with cultural heritage. The project described this paper aims to create new type conceptually led environment, kind Cyber–Physical–Social Eco-Society (CPSeS) system would seamlessly blend real virtual worlds interactively using Virtual Reality, Robots, Social Networking technologies,...
As Internet bandwidth improves and connections become more reliable, on-line course designers will be encouraged to make structured use of synchronous communications. Little work has so far been reported on how the best communications support a problem solving approach. The OTIS pilot made extensive communication learning through case studies in occupational therapy. transcripts sessions have analysed using SOLO taxonomy, study development deep week by week. Results show that peer-to-peer...
An international association advancing the multidisciplinary study of informing systems. Founded in 1998, Informing Science Institute (ISI) is a global community academics shaping future science.
To model support for human learning, rules (i.e. triggering event-conditions-actions) can be classified to encompass any state of student learning activity enroute appropriate material prediction. In an agent based system, each component adaptive multiagent system represented as agents having individual autonomy and responsibility realise the overall goal system. this paper, we present extended work on a Pre-assessment System in which modelling employs technique One v All Multiple...
Whilst tools assist the various tasks required to develop a multi-agent system (MAS), yet there still remains gap between generation of MAS models and program code. AUML development has enabled designs be specified in detail, including complexities agent communication protocols, which was shortcoming Unified Modelling Language (UML) standard. However, creation using requires significant amount design expertise on part designer. We describe an approach complex healthcare information that...
Over the last two decades use of E-learning technology increased to such an extent that role traditional academic has been forced change. Focusing on academics’ views, this study examines their interactions in environment and whether online learning applications have workload (Eynon, 2005; Olaniran, 2006). This also identifies how changed underlying factors which may cause negativity working environment. Based a literature review twelve interviews with academics work suggests workload. For...
Pharmacometric analyses are complex and multifactorial. It is essential to check, track, document the vast amounts of data metadata that generated during these (and relationships between them) in order comply with regulations, support quality control, auditing, reporting. is, however, challenging, tedious, error‐prone, time‐consuming, diverts pharmacometricians from more useful business doing science. Automating this process would save time, reduce transcriptional errors, retention transfer...
