Sustainable development and project stakeholder management indicate a business practice where an organization strives to fulfil the demands of the important stakeholders for the project’s success. If one company relies on subassembly parts from its supplier, then it might be considered that it has high interest for enhancing the business continuity of the supplier. This issue has become more complex during 2020 due to turbulent business conditions where the problem of the safety and health of workers during daily work has become one of main reasons for business vulnerability. Besides the above-mentioned, project stakeholders may have different demands. The implementation of the management actions that lead to the fulfilment of stakeholder demands (SDs), such as addressing ongoing issues, are almost always limited by the available budget. The contribution of this research is providing the input for determining the actions which should address the most important SDs. Those activities may be seen as part of the strategy for external stakeholder management and successful long-term relationship. The determination of the priorities of SDs is based on a fuzzy multicriteria optimization model with type-2 fuzzy sets.
The need for fast communication has led to the introduction of 100 Gbps optics in local area networks (LANs). To avoid retransmission of corrupted packets, in some LANs, the CRC codes were replaced by Reed‐Solomon (RS) codes. Although this solution has met its primary goal, it has two drawbacks: first, the payload size was significantly reduced, and second, each network node had to be equipped with much more complex hardware, which increased the cost of the network. Starting from the fact that the vast majority of corrupted packets contain only single errors, in this paper, a simple strategy for error control in 100 Gbps optical LANs is presented. More precisely, instead of protecting the data with the CRC or RS codes, using integer codes is suggested that can correct single errors and detect two types of burst errors: l‐bit burst errors within one b‐bit byte and h‐bit burst errors within two b‐bit bytes (1 ≤ h < l < b). Unlike the CRC or RS codes, the proposed ones use integer and lookup table operations, which are supported by all processors. In addition, the proposed codes can be interleaved without delay and without using any additional hardware. This feature allows the decoder not only to process larger data sets in parallel, but also to detect all double burst errors.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
