Abstract:The purpose is identifying the components and developing inner relationships between viral marketing components in online business. The research statistical population comprises of 15 individuals in three generations of X, Y and Z in the qualitative section, and 460 online customers in the quantitative section. in the qualitative section used the projection technique (word association, sentence completion, and visioning exercises) which is performed as an in-depth interview. Via MAXQDA software and in the quantitative section, 12 experts were employed to indicate Lawshe's index and from SPSS for exploratory factor analysis and inner relationships of identified components were specified and tested according to the DEMATEL technique and MATLAB and AMOS software. Validity and reliability in the qualitative part due to continuous conflict, use of integration in research, valid researcher review and in quantitative part of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to measure validity with AMOS software and Cronbach's alpha method with SPSS software to measure reliability Used. Findings in the qualitative section indicate 6 new components in the field of viral marketing included: online support, online products, online attractiveness, online risk, online appeal and online trust. The results by using DEMATEL and SEM also showed that viral marketing model in online businesses is such that there are relationships between online support and online appeal, online appeal and online persuasion, online appeal and online trust, and online trust and online risk-taking, whereas there are no relationships between online services and online appeal, and online persuasion and online risk-taking.

Banks have complex, long processes and activities with many points of control and approval, especially for facility processes. The survival of these institutions, providing quality and fast services and customer satisfaction requires improvement and analysis of results after the implementation of these processes. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the performance and improve the working capital facility processes. For this purpose, a method based on process mining and fuzzy algorithm is used. The method includes six steps: log extraction of the Bank of Industry & Mine facility system, log inspection, control flow analysis, performance analysis based on time indicator, making suggestions and reviewing the results, and finally improving the processes using simulation.The results of the present study include the discovery of a real and improved process model, the detection of bottlenecks and max repetition activities, the reduction of the mean throughput time by 23% and the number of activities by 21%, and finally the efficiency of process mining.

Plagiarism is removal and to put it in their own name the ideas or words of others. With the Increasing progress of the Internet and the proliferation of online articles, scientific theft has also become easier. Many systems have been developed today to detect plagiarism. Most of these systems are based on lexical structure and string matching algorithms. Therefore, these systems can hardly detect recovery robberies, placement of synonyms. This paper presents a method for identifying plagiarism based on semantic role labeling and cellular learning automata. In this paper, cellular learning automata are used to locate the processed words. Semantic role labeling specifies the role of words in sentence. Comparison operations are performed for all sentences of the original text and suspicious text. Results of the experiments on PAN-PC-11 corpus demonstrate the proposed method improves values of evaluation parameters such as recall, precision and F-measure, comparing to previous approaches in plagiarism detection.

The purpose of this study is to present an investment strategy that has tried to pave the way for the development of the investing company in the financial markets. Therefore, the forthcoming research can be considered as applied in terms of purpose. Also, considering that in the present research, mathematical modeling, modeling, artificial intelligence, etc. are used and the optimization of the investor company's portfolio is evaluated with the proposed model, so it is a quantitative and descriptive research. This study evaluated the performance of the proposed model in three modes: prudent, moderate and risky investor company. The results showed that for all three cases, the proposed strategy performs significantly better than the market index and other previous strategies. At the end of the investment period, the risky portfolio was more valuable than other portfolios. On the other hand, a prudent portfolio has achieved a more stable and stable return. These results revealed that the proposed fuzzy programming is able to reflect the characteristics and desires of the investor company in the portfolio composition.
