Critical Success Factors of TQM in Service Organizations: A Proposed Model

Abstract: The successful implementation of total quality management (TQM) is often linked with the critical dimensions or critical success factors (CSFs) which are responsible for achieving effective results. The purpose of this study is to identify which CFSs are critical to TQM implementation and support service quality. The current study identifies nine CSFs from the extant literature that can help organizations to achieve business excellence. The study further proposes a model of organizational performance that can help managers to achieve organizational excellence and help them to maintain a fit with the changing environment. A possible sequence for implementation of this model is then presented.

Mixed Micelle Formation between Amphiphilic Drug Amitriptyline Hydrochloride and Surfactants (Conventional and Gemini) at 293.15−308.15 K

Abstract: The micellization of amphiphilic drug amitriptyline hydrochloride (AMT, an antidepressant) and conventional as well as gemini surfactants has been studied conductometrically in pure and mixed states in aqueous solutions at different temperatures to derive various physicochemical properties such as critical micelle concentration (cmc), ideal cmc (cmcid), counterion dissociation (g), standard Gibbs free energy (ΔGm0), enthalpy (ΔHm0), and entropy of micellization (ΔSm0), micellar mole fractions of surfactant (X1, X1m), mole fraction of surfactant in ideal state (X1id), interaction parameter (β), activity coefficients (f1, f2), and excess free energy of mixing (ΔGex). All the results indicate synergism and attractive interactions in the mixed systems.

On the ideal convergence of double sequences in intuitionistic fuzzy normed spaces

Abstract: Recently, the concept of statistical convergence of double sequences has been studied in intuitionistic fuzzy normed spaces by Mursaleen and Mohiuddine [Statistical convergence of double sequences in intuitionistic fuzzy normed spaces, Chaos, Solitons Fractals, 41 (2009) pp. 2414-2421]. We know that ideal convergence is more general than statistical convergence for single or double sequences. This has motivated us to study the ideal convergence of double sequences in a more general setting. That is, in this paper, we study the concept of ideal convergence and ideal Cauchy for double sequences in intuitionistic fuzzy normed spaces.

Femtoscopy Of Pp Collisions At √s=0.9 And 7 Tev At The Lhc With Two-pion Bose-einstein Correlations

Abstract: We report on the high statistics two-pion correlation functions from pp collisions at root s = 0.9 TeV and root s = 7 TeV, measured by the ALICE experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The correlation functions as well as the extracted source radii scale with event multiplicity and pair momentum. When analyzed in the same multiplicity and pair transverse momentum range, the correlation is similar at the two collision energies. A three-dimensional femtoscopic analysis shows an increase of the emission zone with increasing event multiplicity as well as decreasing homogeneity lengths with increasing transverse momentum. The latter trend gets more pronounced as multiplicity increases. This suggests the development of space-momentum correlations, at least for collisions producing a high multiplicity of particles. We consider these trends in the context of previous femtoscopic studies in high-energy hadron and heavy-ion collisions and discuss possible underlying physics mechanisms. Detailed analysis of the correlation reveals an exponential shape in the outward and longitudinal directions, while the sideward remains a Gaussian. This is interpreted as a result of a significant contribution of strongly decaying resonances to the emission region shape. Significant nonfemtoscopic correlations are observed, and are argued to be the consequence of "mini-jet"-like structures extending to low p(t). They are well reproduced by the Monte-Carlo generators and seen also in pi(+)pi(-) correlations.
