Abstract:
This paper aims to investigate the impact of customer relationship management on Long-term Customers’ Loyalty in the Palestinian banking industry. The data was collected through distributing questionnaires on the Palestinian banking employees. Using multiple regression analysis tests, this paper finds these results; there is a positive and strong linear relationship between dependent variable “long-term customers’ loyalty” and CRM, the CRM dimensions are service quality, customer’s database, solving customer’s problems, employees behavior, and CRM system integration. At the end, the two predictors (employee’s behavior and CRM system integration) explained 48.2% of the variance in the long-term customers’ loyalty. The scholars’ found that banks have to investigate why there is a difference in the service quality level between male and female employees where male employees more effective than females. Furthermore, banks need to update their customers’ database in order to be alerted to changes in their customers’ requirements and needs to retain their loyal relationships with customers.

Abstract:
Telemarketing is a type of direct marketing where a salesperson contacts the customers to sell products or services over the phone. The database of prospective customers comes from direct marketing database. It is important for the company to predict the set of customers with highest probability to accept the sales or offer based on their personal characteristics or behavior during shopping. Recently, companies have started to resort to data mining approaches for customer profiling. This project focuses on helping banks to increase the accuracy of their customer profiling through classification as well as identifying a group of customers who have a high probability to subscribe to a long term deposit. In the experiments, three classification algorithms are used, which are Naïve Bayes, Random Forest, and Decision Tree. The experiments measured accuracy percentage, precision and recall rates and showed that classification is useful for predicting customer profiles and increasing telemarketing sales.

Abstract:
Sentiment analysis is becoming an essential tool for analyzing the contents of online customer reviews. This analysis involves identifying the necessary labels to determine whether a comment is positive, negative, or neutral, and the intensity with which the customer’s sentiment is expressed. Based on this information, service companies such as airlines can design and implement a communication strategy to improve their customers’ image of the company and the service received. This study proposes a methodology to identify the significant labels that represent the customers’ sentiments, based on a quantitative variable, that is, the overall rating. The key labels were identified in the comments’ titles, which usually include the words that best define the customer experience. This database was applied to more extensive online customer reviews in order to validate that the identified tags are meaningful for assessing the sentiments expressed in them. The results show that the labels elaborated from the titles are valid for analyzing the feelings in the comments, thus, simplifying the labels to be taken into account when carrying out a sentiment analysis of customers’ online comments.

Abstract:
The management of Pizza Oei-Oei Medan does not yet have a standard system in determining the best customer.m So far, this has been done randomly and without a structure in determining the best customer. Not fair to other customers. It takes a decision support system to determine the best customers who can make decisions from various alternatives and existing criteria in determining the best customers fairly. The method used is SAW (Simple Additive Weighting). SAW is a method that can determine the weight value for each attribute, then proceed with a ranking process that will select the best alternative from a number of alternatives. SAW method can be implemented to find out the best customers based on the criteria and weights that are determined correctly. This research is to determine the best customers at Pizza Oei-Oei Medan. The system is built with Visual Basic Studio programming language with Microsoft Access database.

Abstract:
A telecommunication network produces daily large amounts of calling data which contain hidden and valuable knowledge. This knowledge can be used in determining the calling patterns of customer, finding too thrifty customers, also for locating the best area to concentrate on in order to boost profits. In this paper, we designed an algorithm named CLOTELE which is based on the ideas of the pattern-growth method of mining, for mining closed frequent calling patterns of a telecommunication database from a telecommunication provider. First, by observing the features of the database and then extracting the attributes needed to be mined. Then, we merge the items to form an itemset, the algorithm is now applied to the transformed database. CLOTELE is built on the basis of viewing knowledge discovery as an interactive and iterative process in order to optimize decision making. The quality of the knowledge discovered is evaluated. The experimental results show the knowledge of closed frequent patterns obtained is very useful and easy to interpret by the network operators and administrators.

Abstract:
With people becoming more individualistic in their choices they make in personalizing the goods and services they use, as resulted in major development that has been recorded in the customisation world. This individualism has resulted in the increase in demand of customized products in many industries especially in the footwear, kitchen and computer industries. However, little has been done when it comes to mechanically oriented products and little flexibility has been given to the consumers in the co-creation of customized products. The Hybrid system of classification is one way to satisfy the customers’ need for the products that are mechanically oriented in nature thereby meeting their desire needs. This paper presents a framework in which an Hybrid system of classification is used to integrates Customers into the design process by defining, configuring, matching, or modifying personal product that is mechanically oriented in nature and grouping the products into classes and sub-classes using a wide range of product parameters, products configuration which make it possible to add and/or change functionalities of a core product, a coding system for mechanical designs which is applicable to each product in the hierarchy, the use of a database for the products information. And the retrieval system to retrieve a similar product code from the database if the initial customer configuration data does not yield a feasible product code through the application of Analytic Hierarchy Process and finally modifying the existing similar product to suit the customers desire.

Abstract:
Design for product adaptability is one of the techniques used to provide customers with products that exactly meet their requirements. Clustering methods have been used extensively in the study of product adaptability design. Of the clustering methods, the fuzzy clustering method is the most widely in the design field. The three main kinds of fuzzy clustering methods are the transitive closure method, the dynamic direct method and the maximum tree method. The dynamic direct clustering method has been found to produce design solutions with the lowest cost. In this paper, a new approach for obtaining adaptable product designs using the clustering method is proposed. The method consists of three steps. Firstly, the extension distance formula is used to determine the distance between two products in a product database. The product design space and the distances between individuals are used as grouping criteria in this step. Secondly, the minimal distance between products is used to obtain the clustering index. Thirdly, the threshold value is used to divide the products in the database into groups. Customer demands and the results obtained from the adaptable function (based on the extension distance formula) are used to evaluate the fitness of the groups and their corresponding products. The product with the largest adaptable function value to demand ratio is selected product. In order to the show the advantage of using the extension-clustering method, both the extension-clustering method and the dynamic direct method are presented and compared. The comparison indicates that the extension-clustering method leads to quicker evaluations of design alternatives and results that more closely match customers’ demands. An example of the adaptable design of circular saws tools is used to demonstrate that with the extension-clustering design method a high variety of intelligent configurations can be obtained with significant rapidity.

Abstract:
Abstract “Sound Quality” has become a product feature that is becoming more important to customers and companies. Although the precise meaning of the term can vary, companies must respond when customers react to products that sound better. The purpose of this paper is to discuss some of the marketing and design issues involved in product sound, some tools that are available to determine what Sound Quality (SQ) is for any particular product, and how engineering design can be brought to bear on this product attribute. The author’s view is that SQ is amenable to good and rational procedures, just like the other methods used in product planning and engineering design.

Abstract:
Today’s market is becoming increasingly more competitive as companies strive to achieve success by reaching a large number of customers in a mass market while simultaneously treating them as individuals in a customized market. Many companies have begun to appreciate the benefits of using product platforms as they increase the customizability of their offered products, while reducing development costs and time to market. However, product variety is not customization; it is simply an attempt on the part of a company to meet the individual needs of their customers by flooding the market with many variations of the same product. With recent innovations in the field of information technology, web-based product development methodologies provide the capability for advanced customer involvement during the design process, which is a crucial aspect of differentiating customization from variety. Current approaches have provided web-based frameworks where users are offered a limited amount of control in the design process by assembling different configurations of given modules or by choosing a product already available in the company database. The focus in this paper is on advancements to a web-based framework where design parameters are collected from the user by means of a web-based browser interface, optimization is completed using the specified parameters, and a 3D visual representation is dynamically provided based on the results from the optimization. This proposed framework is illustrated using an example from ongoing research involving General Aviation Aircraft design.

Abstract:
Dockside container cranes are well-known for their complex structure and thus many factors to be considered in their development. A service-oriented architecture based CAD/CAE system for dockside container crane is proposed in this paper. First, customers provide specifications of the cranes to designers through Browser/Server (B/S) based user requirement input interfaces. Second, designers parametrically model the cranes through 3D CAD platform, and CAE analysts conduct explicit dynamic Finite Element Analysis (FEA) on the designed crane structure. CAD and CAE function modules are accomplished through Client/Server (C/S) architecture. Next, based on the high-level web service and lower-level socket communication, a Design-Analysis-Integration (DAI) module is developed to maintain a model consistence between CAD module and CAE module. Then, the design results are displayed to the customers through B/S mechanism. Last, the SQL-Server based crane product database used to support the whole design and analysis processes is discussed. Since all the operations are conducted through internet/intranet and service-oriented architecture, customers, designers and analysts are able to participate in the product development processes at different geographical locations.

Abstract:
Abstract The European Pressurized Water Reactor Project (EPR) is based on an innovative design concept for a new type of pressurized water reactor. The development of this concept will be carried out by a consortium of international partners and customers based in Germany and France. During the development of the EPR large amounts of up-to-date engineering data (i.e. CAD data, planning documentation) have to be made available to all project partners for presentation and development. This paper describes the web-based tool Virtual Web Plant (VWP), a tool to integrate 3D models from various CAD plant design tools and to display them interactively. The tool receives the data through the Internet. We describe the special advantages of an object-oriented database for the storage of the graphical data are shown. Through the application of object-oriented databases, it is possible to define various views of the logical plant structure, for example. The user is hereby able to navigate easily through both the plant structure and the project documentation. The work presented in this paper is part of a Virtual Reality Research Project of the Heinz Nixdorf Institute and the Siemens AG KWU.

Abstract:
Public transit ridership in California declined in the five years before the pandemic of 2020–21 and dropped significantly further after the pandemic began. A sharp downward step in the level of transit boarding occurred after February 2020, and continues to the date of this report as a result of the public-health guidance on social distancing, expanded work-at-home, and a travel mode shift from public transit to private cars. A critical issue has come to the foreground of public transportation policy, namely, how to increase the quality and geographic reach of transit service to better serve the essential trips of mobility disadvantaged citizens who do not have access to private vehicle travel. The research focus of this report is an examination of the circumstances where fixed route bus route service could cost-effectively be replaced by on-demand microtransit, with equivalent overall zone-level efficiency and a higher quality of complete trip service. Research methods were reviews of documented agency experience, execution of simple simulations, and sketch-level analysis of 2019 performance reported in the National Transit Database. Available evidence is encouraging and suggestive, but not conclusive. The research found that substitutions of flexible microtransit for fixed route buses are already being piloted across the U.S., with promising performance results. The findings imply that action steps could be taken in California to expand and refine an emphasis on general purpose microtransit in corridors and zones with a relatively high fraction of potential travelers who are mobility disadvantaged, and where traditional bus routes are capturing fewer than 15 boardings per vehicle hour. To be sufficiently productive as fixed route replacements, microtransit service technologies in the same or larger zones need to be capable of achieving vehicle boardings of five per hour, a challenge worth addressing with technology applications. Delivery of microtransit service can be undertaken through contracts with a growing set of private sector firms, which are developing processes to merge general purpose customers with those now assigned to ADA-required paratransit and Medi-Cal-supported non-emergency medical transport.
