Purpose: Selection of the best contractor by AHP and VIKOR method, a case study of an executive project in the dairy industry.Methodology: Choosing the right contractor plays an important role in the success or failure of a project. The specialization of the activities of various sectors of the industry is one of the indicators of the current business market, and the outsourcing of a part of the desired activities of the organization as a project and the selection of a contractor is one of the concerns of managers to compete in the business market, because the evaluation of contractors based on Defined criteria and ultimately the selection of qualified contractors will eliminate inefficient contractors from the bidding process. Failure to choose the right contractor will eventually lead to the loss of the organization's resources. In the completion of any project, complete satisfaction of the employer is important and vital, so that the project can be implemented according to the schedule, with the most appropriate cost and the most valid proposal. The contractor reached maximum satisfaction in the project. The purpose of this research is to select the best contractor in one of the projects of dairy companies in Fars province, after holding a tender and completing a questionnaire by project experts, using AHP and VIKOR methods, the contractors were weighted and ranked.Findings: The findings state that contractor C received the first rank, contractor B the second rank and contractor A the third rank, and finally the first rank contractor was approved by the people present in the project to start and implement executive activities.

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to introduce the function of duration criterion in the management of assets and liabilities and to analyze its impact on the performance of banks, and it refers to a process in which total assets and liabilities are simultaneously and integrated. They can be under control and management.Methodology: It is an applied research method that is carried out using the results of basic research in order to improve and perfect the behaviors, methods, tools, devices, products, structures and patterns used by human societies, and its purpose is to develop practical knowledge in a specific field. Therefore, this research, while analyzing the overall balance sheet management, asset and debt management, which includes strategic planning and implementation and control processes has led to the development of knowledge through the impact of volume, composition, maturity, interest rate sensitivity, quality and liquidity on bank assets and liabilities.Findings: The findings show that a proper assessment of a bank's ALM situation requires a correct understanding of the nature of assets and liabilities, customers, the economy and the competitive environment that governs that bank, and its duration criterion can be of great help. To asset and debt management as well as interest rate risk management in the banking system of our country it is also possible to realize its role in the performance of banks due to the importance of managing this sector.Originality/scientific added value: In line with this topic, the current research deals with the analytical approach to the management of assets and liabilities through the duration criterion and its effect on the performance of banks.

Purpose: Evaluating the performance of employees is one of the most critical requirements for senior managers in organizations. One of the challenges in this regard is the assessment of the performance of staff personnel. Due to the nature of their activities, defining quantitative indicators alone cannot provide an acceptable evaluation. Therefore, this research focuses on presenting an applied fuzzy model for the evaluation of staff personnel.Methodology: This study involves developing a hierarchical fuzzy performance evaluation system composed of both qualitative and quantitative indicators simultaneously. The indicators consist of 7 quantitative and 5 qualitative ones, identified and fuzzified with the input of 11 senior managers of the organization. Considering all indicators simultaneously in a system would require a very large number of fuzzy rules. Therefore, a step-by-step model with continuous and hierarchical fuzzy systems is used in this article, significantly reducing the number of rules. Finally, the developed model is implemented in Simulink, a Matlab tool, using the Mamdani method.Findings: The results of the `evaluation of the developed model closely matched expectations with good accuracy, providing a suitable basis for employee assessments. The advantages of this model include its relatively good accuracy compared to traditional models, higher employee satisfaction, and reducing subjective assessments resulting from bias, relationships, etc. It also enables faster and simpler evaluations for supervisors and managers.Originality/Value: The presented model is a practical approach that has been implemented in a real organization. It offers the possibility for other organizations to conduct employee evaluations by adjusting some indicators according to their activities, thereby adding value to the scientific field.

Purpose: In this article, considering the presence of internet and virtual space networks, the function of science classification and the place and application of flexonomy and taxonomy in contemporary libraries (digital library) have been investigated. In this abstract, the importance of science classification function in contemporary libraries is mentioned first. Science classification helps users find the information they need easily and efficiently by providing a logical and coherent structure for organizing information.Methodology: The research of this article shows that although the needs of libraries in the contemporary era have exceeded the past, the role of science classification is still important and necessary. Science classification helps users find the information they need easily and efficiently by providing a logical and coherent structure for organizing information. Next, the role of flexonomy and taxonomy in contemporary libraries has been discussed. Flexonomy, using user-centered tags, allows users to organize information according to their needs and perspectives. Taxonomy also helps users understand information more deeply and accurately by providing a hierarchical structure for organizing information.Findings: At the same time, flexonomy and taxonomy also play an important role in contemporary libraries as new methods of organizing knowledge. Flexonomy, using user-centered tags, allows users to organize information according to their needs and views. Taxonomy also helps users to understand information more deeply and accurately by providing a hierarchical structure for organizing information.Originality/Value: The results of this article show that science classification, flexonomy and taxonomy are complementary to each other and they can be used simultaneously to help users find and share information suitable for their needs in contemporary libraries and it is better. In order to be more practical and to be able to easily use controlled vocabulary in natural language, ontology is also used, which makes the circle of coherence and classification of sciences more complete in this way.
