The goal of this study is to ascertain the moderating role that management support has in internal audit effectiveness in Jordan, as well as the impact of system quality and user quality of information technology. There were 172 responders in all, and they were split across Jordanian auditors. In the data analysis process, the quantitative analysis test— which consists of the validity test, reliability test, test of conventional assumptions, and hypothesis test—is applied. Information technology system and user quality are independent variables in this study. The dependent variable in this study is internal audit effectiveness, and the moderating variable is management support. The results of this study show that the effectiveness of internal audits is significantly impacted by the system quality and user quality of information technology. Additionally, with Management support acting as a moderating factor, the link between System quality and Audit effectiveness improves. The findings also indicate that when moderating variables are present, the connection between User quality and Audit effectiveness changes from positive to negative. Future research might look at risk management.

The fluctuating and disorganized state of todays global markets is the result of several factors. COVID-19 is an illustration. Supply chain managers should re-evaluate their competitive strategy and leverage big data analytics in light of the rising volatility in demand and supply, rivalry among supply chain partners, and the requirement to deliver tailored goods and services (BDA).

: In this article, the performance of a series-parallel system is improved. The system components are assumed to follows independently and identically Lindley distributed with three parameters. The system reliability for the given system will be improved by using reduction method, hot, cold and imperfect duplication method. Some reliability measures are derived. Two types of reliability equivalence factors and gamma fractiles are calculated. A numerical example is introduced to explain the theoretical results.

In this paper, we proposed an optimal control of the COVID-19 transmission dynamics. First, we investigated system features such as solution boundedness, positivity, disease-free and endemic equilibrium, and the local and global stability of equilibrium points. Besides, a disease-free equilibrium point is globally asymptotically stable if the basic reproduction number is less than one, and an endemic equilibrium point exists otherwise. Secondly, we have shown the sensitivity analysis of the basic reproduction number. Also the model is then fitted using COVID-19 infected reported in Ethiopia from February 1,2023 to March 2,2023. The values of model parameters are then estimated from the data reported using the least square method together with the the MATLAB software. Moreover, the optimal corruption minimization strategies are determined using three controls strategies, namely prevention, vaccination and treatment. The existence of the optimal controls and characterization is established using Pontryagin’s Maximum Principle. Finally, based on analysis of optimality system, the combination of the prevention and treatment of infected is the most optimal and least cost strategy to minimize the burden of the disease.

This study examines how innovation (INN) influences the relationship between supply chain management and information technology in Jordan. 211 employees of Jordanian industrial enterprises who work in the Operations Department provided information for the study, which examines this subject. The findings indicate a close connection between information technology and supply chain management. Innovation also dramatically modifies the interaction between supply chain management and information technology. Management help may be the subject of future research.

In this paper, a new analytical method called the ARA-Residual power series method (ARA- RPSM) is implemented to solve some fractional physical equations. The methodology of the proposed method based on applying the ARA-transform to the given fractional differential equations, followed by the creation of approximate series solutions using Taylor’s expansion. Then the series solution is transformed using the inverse of the ARA-transform to get the solution in the original space. Accuracy, effectiveness, and validity of the suggested method are demonstrated through the discussion of three attractive applications. The solution obtained using ARA-RPSM demonstrates good agreement when compared to the solutions found using other methods.

This study analyzes residential attractiveness in small Moroccan cities using statistical models. Net migration rates are commonly used to assess attractiveness. The study estimated net migration rates for each city and employed a structural econometric model with logistic regression to identify influential variables that affect the net migration rate. These variables were then used in a predictive model with an artificial neural network algorithm. The logistic model revealed insights, highlighting the complexity of residential attractiveness influenced by factors like job supply, accessibility, and housing conditions. The artificial neural network model provided accurate predictions (over 80%), aiding policymakers in decision-making and prospective analyses.

In this paper the constrained systems with two primary first class constraints are studied using fractional Lagrangian, after that we find the fractional Hamiltonian and the corresponding Hamilton Jacobi equation. Using separation of variables technique, we can find the action function S this function helps us to formulate the wave function which describe the behavior of our systems also from the action function S we can find the equations of motion and the corresponding momenta in fractional form. This work is illustrated using one example.
