http://ijaems.com/ Open Access international Journal to publish research paper en-us December 2017 Management of organizations needs efficient information systems to improve competitiveness by cost reduction and better logistics. It is universally recognized by large and small to medium-size enterprises (SME) that the capability of providing the right information at the right time brings tremendous rewards to organizations in a global competitive world of complex business practices. ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) can be defined as a framework for organizing, defining and standardizing the business processes necessary to effectively plan and control an organization so the organization can use its internal knowledge to seek external advantage. This paper presents the growth and success of ERP adoption and development through history. The evolution of ERP systems closely followed the spectacular developments in the field of computer hardware and software systems. There is still a never-ending process on the ERP market, of reengineering and development, bringing new products and solutions. The consolidations continue to occur and the key players continue to build out their products. The next phase of ERP systems will be the merged products. http://ijaems.com/detail/the-evolution-of-enterprise-resource-planning-systems/ Teodor Beleţ, Anca Alexandra Purcărea http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/1 IJAEMS-NOV-2017-9-The Evolution of Enterprise.pdf Amid the leading position of Morocco in terms of Corporate Governance compared to peer countries from the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region, a number of legislative and operational limitations still as of today impede the process of implementation of these practices [1]. This leads us to question the extent to which the large market capitalization firms have implemented these practices. Therefore, the present article aims to present the findings of a semi-directive qualitative research conducted on the 20 largest capitalizations of Casablanca Stock Exchange. We will attempt to contextualize the most widely used Corporate Governance scoring system (Institute of Shareholders Services)to the Moroccan context. We will, then, analyze the state of progress of the selected equity listed companies in terms best practices of corporate governance by comparing our findings dated as of 2017 with the last report of the Moroccan Institute of Directors (IMA) of 2012. http://ijaems.com/detail/compliance-analysis-of-the-best-practices-of-corporate-governance-in-morcco-case-of-the-large-market-capitalization-companies/ Zoubida Samlal, Rachid Jahidi http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/2 IJAEMS-OCT-2017-16-Compliance Analysis of the Best.pdf The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between work engagement and job satisfaction. The research aimed to examine each of ( equal opportunities, personal influence, nature of career, development opportunity, employee recognition, work challenge, supervisor behaviour, ethics and integrity, and job empowerment) and its relationship with job satisfaction in private companies in Erbil. The researcher used quantitative research method in order to measure the relationship between work engagement and job satisfaction, however only 108 respondents were participated in the current study. The researcher used multiple regression analysis to measure the relationship among variables. The researcher found that workplace challenge had the highest value among other work engagement elements = .671 and P-value = .000 which indicates that many private companies’ employees are engaged to their job because of time management, Overwhelming workloads and communication. This research highlighted the significance of workplace challenge that inspires the individuals to be more engaged to their organization. Employee engagement is a positive attitude towards the workplace and is the degree that an individual is bind to the organization. Only small number of employees had participated in this research from private companies in Kurdistan, which limits the outcome of the study. http://ijaems.com/detail/a-study-of-the-relationship-between-work-engagement-and-job-satisfaction-in-private-companies-in-kurdistan/ Kofand Anwar, Goran Hussein Qadir http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/3 IJAEMS-NOV-2017-10-A Study of the Relationship between.pdf Coffee consumption habits have evolved along with society for more than 300 years around the world. Social changes imply different lifestyles in each culture. Lifestyles influence the myths used by people in their consumption decisions. The objective of this research is to determine the relationship between lifestyle and coffee consumption habits, from the perspective of myth, in the inhabitants of the Mexican municipalities of Orizaba, Tehuipango, and Zongolica. A survey was conducted with a sample of inhabitants of the three municipalities studied. The statistical analyzes applied were the central limit theorem, Pearson, and Chi-square. The results show that the variables Consumption habits-Lifestyle-Myth, are highly dependent on the level of perception of people. It is concluded that the coffee myth corresponds to the "family union" in the study municipalities. This myth is not characterized in the evolutionary stages contemplated in the "waves of coffee". http://ijaems.com/detail/analysis-of-the-relationship-between-lifestyle-and-coffee-consumption-habits-from-the-myth-approach-in-the-municipalities-of-orizaba-tehuipango-and-zongolica-veracruz/ Rogelio Limón-Rivera, Francisco Javier Mejía-Ochoa, Elyana Cristina Peláez-Muñoz, Yamill Vargas-Rivera, Silvia Hernández-Velásquez, Evaristo Fierro-Domínguez, Laura Castro-Medina, Manuel González-Pérez http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/4 IJAEMS-NOV-2017-11-Analysis of the Relationship between.pdf It is known that Gram-negative bacteria (GNB) are the most frequent bacteria in hospital units. It is also known that GNBs generate a greater number of nosocomial infections in critical areas. In the present work, the adhesion of the bacterial cell wall (BCW) to the compounds of the material layers of a high efficiency filter (HEPA) was analyzed. The analysis was carried out by means of molecular simulation and quantum chemistry. The BCW and HEPA molecules were designed using Hyperchem software for simulation. The calculations of the quantum interactions of the molecules were carried out using the theory of the electron transfer coefficient (ETC). It obtained from 4 to 6 compounds that are more likely to interact even as a chemical reaction. The compounds of the glass fibers are the ones that work best for the adhesion and destruction of the BCW. http://ijaems.com/detail/quantic-analysis-of-the-adherence-of-a-gram-negative-bacteria-in-a-hepa-filter/ Iliana Herrera-Cantú, Karina García-Aguilar, Erick Pedraza-Gress, Emmanuel Vázquez - López, Juan Jesús García-Mar, Lillhian Arely Flores-González, Manuel Aparicio -Razo, Oscar Sánchez-Parada, Manuel González-Pérez http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/5 IJAEMS-NOV-2017-12-Quantic Analysis of the Adherence.pdf Soil erosion which is now one of the impacts of climate change due to increased precipitation events across the globe needs adaptations for adjusting to the actual and expected change in its occurrence more than mechanical/engineering measures for the management of the phenomenon. The objective of this paper is to conduct an in-depth review of adaptation strategies to soil erosion. The research made a review of academic/journal articles, internet materials, news articles, conference papers, books and publicly available materials on adaptations to soil erosion. From the review, most authors have a unity of opinion on adaptive strategies to soil erosion, including the use of mulching, cover cropping, reduced tillage, contour bonds, tree planting, wood logs and ploughing across the slope as they have been found to increase soil yield and reduce soil loss as well as its accompanying adverse impacts. Recommendations of the study includes: (1) enhancement of the existing adaptive measures; (2) a shift from rain-fed agriculture to dry season farming; (3) training the affected people on adopting the adaptive measures which are currently ignored in most communities; and (4) encouragement of the participation of land holders through grants in soil erosion management based on the adaptive techniques. http://ijaems.com/detail/adaptations-to-soil-erosion-a-review/ Igwe P.U., Nwezi C.C., Echendu J.E., Chukwunyere I.C., Okonkwo N.J. http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/6 IJAEMS-NOV-2017-13-Adaptations to Soil Erosion.pdf Crptocurrency is a digital or virtual currency that uses cryptography for security, transfer process and storage in ledger. This paper is to validate the correlation between exchange rate changes and trading volume changes. Data selected for this study is hourly data starting from 4 November 2017 until 7 November 2017. Methodology implemented in this study started with normality diagnostics and followed by correlation diagnostic. In this study, Pearson correlation calculation is implemented to evaluate the association between two variables namely exchange rate and trading volume. Pearson's correlation coefficient (r) is a measure of the strength of the association between the two variables. Result shows the coefficient of association is 0.123. Therefore, this study proved that the association between exchange rate changes and trading volume changes is very weak association. This value occurred because there is high volatility in hourly data and existence of outliers. The significant of this finding will help investors to recognize the relationship between trading volume and exchange rate. Therefore, it will help investors to make better decision in developing investment portfolio. http://ijaems.com/detail/robust-statistical-pearson-correlation-diagnostics-for-bitcoin-exchange-rate-with-trading-volume-an-analysis-of-high-frequency-data-in-high-volatility-environment/ Nashirah Abu Bakar, Sofian Rosbi http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/7 IJAEMS-DEC-2017-6-Robust Statistical Pearson.pdf Dredging is a global anthropogenic excavation activity of removing sediments from water bodies and depositing it elsewhere. It is a mixed blessing as it has both beneficial and adverse impacts. This paper is on a review of environmental implications of dredging. The objective of the paper is to review previous works by researchers on the environmental consequences of dredging. The method used is a review of academic/journal articles, internet materials, conference / workshop papers, textbooks, bulletins and publicly available materials on dredging activities. The results of the study revealed that previous authors whose works were reviewed have a convergent view that apart from the beneficial impacts of dredging (e.g. keeping waterways navigable, flood and storm protection and provision of materials for road construction and building), it has lots of adverse environmental impacts, including environmental pollution, erosion, widespread hydrological changes, reduction in the population of aquatic lives like destruction of fish spawning grounds and benthic organisms and resuspension of particulate matter column that has elevated levels of lead, copper, zinc and nickel in Phytoplankton. Recommendations of the study include: (1) establishment of environmental legislations and regulations for dredging operation; (2) use of green technology in dredging activities to minimize suspension of sediments and contamination/pollution of dredging environments; and (3) creation of awareness among dredging contractors, regulators and marine communities where dredging take place on the economic and ecological values of the marine ecosystems that are usually very sensitive, fragile and productive. http://ijaems.com/detail/a-review-of-environmental-implications-of-dredging-activities/ Igwe P.U., Ugovwarhe O.E.P., Ejiofor C.C., Menkiti H.E., Okonkwo C.S. http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/8 IJAEMS-DEC-2017-4-A Review of Environmental.pdf A comparative study of the corrosion inhibition performance of Alstonia boonei leaves extract in 0.5M tetraoxosulphate (VI) acid at different temperatures (30ᵒC, 50ᵒC and 70ᵒC) was undertaken. The results showed that Alstonia boonei leaves extract was more efficient as a corrosion inhibitor at 30ᵒC compared to temperatures of 50ᵒC and 70ᵒC.The adsorption of Alstonia boonei leaves extract was found to obey Langmuir adsorption isotherm at all temperatures (30ᵒC, 50ᵒC and 70ᵒC), but did not obey Freundlich adsorption isotherm at all temperatures. A study of the effect of temperature on corrosion rate and inhibition efficiency showed that corrosion rate increased with increase in temperature, while the inhibition efficiency decreased with increase in temperature. http://ijaems.com/detail/a-study-of-the-corrosion-inhibition-of-mild-steel-in-0-5m-tetraoxosulphate-vi-acid-by-alstonia-boonei-leaves-extract-as-an-inhibitor-at-different-temperatures/ Evelyn.U.Godwin-Nwakwasi, Elachi.E.Elachi, Mercy.A.Ezeokonkwo, Lawrence.E.Onwuchuruba http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/9 IJAEMS-NOV-2017-7-A Study of the Corrosion.pdf This study, which aims to determine the principles of traditional Turkish Sports Management and organizational structure, will examine the ethnocenosis system of Göktürk State, which is a state that uses only the Turkish alphabet and the first Turkish identity among the Turkish States established up to date, and try to determine the structure of sport management and organization which they formed mainly in war and physical education. In the study, a qualitative method called "descriptive field scanning", documentary or documentary study was followed (Karasar,1976). In order to determine the organizational structure of the Göktürk State, it has been analyzed with the observations of China, Rome, Orhun Abdüleri, epic poems, traveler's observations, archaic cosmology of Gokturk society and the discoveries of various fields working on that period. Turkish history can be considered as a military history until the last two hundred years. Turkish society is one in which, in the light of the available data, throughout history, military-civil distinction is not considered, and all members of the society are considered soldiers. "The army was in the people, the people in the army". Therefore; Göktürk State was formed in parallel with the state hierarchy in all the cities under the state government (Yaylak-Kışlak) in the structure of sport management organization. http://ijaems.com/detail/sports-management-organ-zat-on-n-g-kt-rk-state/ Abdurrahman Kepoğlu http://ijaems.com/upload_images/issue_files/10 IJAEMS-DEC-2017-11-Sports Management Organızatıon.pdf
