Abstract:
Let ( X , d ) be a metric space and Ω i , i = 1 , 2 , … , m , be a nonempty subset of ( X , d ) . An operator T : ∪ 1 ≤ i ≤ m Ω i → ∪ 1 ≤ i ≤ m Ω i is called an alternative map if T ( Ω j ) ⊆ ∪ i ≠ j Ω i , j = 1 , 2 , … , m . In addition, if for any x, y ∈ ∪ 1 ≤ i ≤ m Ω i , there exists a constant α ∈ [ 0 , 1 ) such that d ( T x , T y ) ≤ α d ( x , y ) + ( 1 − α ) d ( Ω j , Ω k ) for some Ω j and Ω k ∈ { Ω i } i = 1 m with x ∈ Ω j and y ∈ Ω k , then we call T an alternative contraction. Moreover, if ( X , d ) has an alternative UC property and T is an alternative contraction, then the best pro

Abstract:
The selection of the best supplier to fulfil the needs of the store in the continuous sale of electronic goods requires a selectivity process using many factors, namely product quality, product price, service, and product delivery speed. However, the number of alternatives to be selected can make it difficult for decision makers to determine the best choice in the selection process. Therefore, a decision support system is needed to support decision making so that the selection of the best electronic goods supplier can be done easily and quickly.

Abstract:
The development of private divorce mediation appears to offer a friendly and informal alternative to the "hostile" adversarial divorce. A close analysis of its claims, however, shows them to be largely unproven. Urgent attention should therefore be given to the philosophical base of the movement. There is also a need for empirical research and for standardised training. Further unanswered questions relate to the part to be played by different professions, and to professional ethics.

The purpose of this thesis is to provide a robust epistemological justification for Evidence Based Medicine (EMB), and thereby to demonstrate the epistemological short comings of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM). CAM has received support from both philosophers, such as Rorty and Feyerband, and the Sociology and Anthropology of Medicine. The thesis will thus review both the internal coherence and the application of non-realist arguments, and counter non-realism with the realist epistemology and philosophy of science that is represented by C.S.

Abstract:
Abstract Fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) made from epoxy vinyl ester resin is the preferred material of construction for piping, ductwork, tanks, hoods, scrubbers, and stacks in pulp and paper processing plants. The conversion of wood to paper requires the use of highly corrosive bleaching chemicals that have proven to be far too harsh for conventional materials such as stainless steel and tile linings. Furthermore, FRP provides a considerably more economical alternative to high nickel alloys and other expensive specialty metals. The purpose of this paper will be to explore the diverse app

Abstract During the design phase of chemical reactors and other process vessels subjected to severe corrosive environments, material engineers must decide from a plethora of options. The challenge is to match the operating environment with the best material the first time through, and to avoid the high cost of failure. All corrosion resistant materials will succeed in certain environments, yet will fail in others. Corrosion resistant alloys or glass linings are often selected because they are seen as the lowest risk options. Unfortunately, these high cost solutions sometimes fail due to chemic
