Abstract:
Total Quality Management (TQM) has been subjected to definitional ambiguities among scholars and practitioners in the sense that there is a lack of consensus as to the exact meaning of the term. While some authors contend that TQM is a set of management values, others conceptualise it as a strategy and philosophy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, TQM is acknowledged as a critical, comprehensive and complex management topic which based on a large number of principles embraces all aspects of the organisation as well as its customers and suppliers. Despite a plethora of TQM research studies; there

Abstract:
Includes bibliographical references.<br>Interpretive Structural Modelling is a computer-driven method for dealing with complexity, by allowing individuals or groups to interpret the inter-relationships between different aspects or elements of a problem. In doing this interpretation, the elements are structured, and from this structuring, a graphical model is produced, allowing the modeller(s) to better understand the problem. The main contribution of this thesis was to develop a computer package for Interpretive Structural Modelling (ISM), for use at the School of Engineering Management at the

Abstract:
Digital diplomacy (e-Diplomacy), is commonly defined as the use of information and communication technology for the purposes of attaining foreign policy goals. The emerging field of digital diplomacy has been largely neglected in academic research. Also, in practice, this area has been slow to evolve compared to other areas of public service such as e-government, e-education and e-health. This research draws on the existing literature to present a novel conceptual framework that could be used to guide the implementation of e-diplomacy.

Abstract:
During recent years, supply chain risks have gained importance in the food supply chain. This study presents a methodology to analyse the risk in the agri-food supply chain belonging to the Andean region in Peru. It utilises the interpretive structural modelling (ISM) with matrice d' impacts croises multiplication appliqué an classement (cross-impact matrix multiplication applied to classification, abbreviated as MICMAC) to identify and understand relationships between risk types.
