This study adopts the diffusion of innovation theory as to develop the smart product service system model in banking industry due to prior studies are lacking in identifying the attributes. The smart product service system functions are bearing high uncertainty and system complexity; hence, the hybrid method of fuzzy Delphi method and fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory to construct a valid hierarchical model and identified the causal interrelationships among the attributes. The smart product service system hierarchical model with eight aspects and 41 criteria are proposed enriching the existing literature and that identify appropriate strategies to achieve operational performance. The results show that seven aspects and 22 criteria are determined as the valid hierarchical model. The institutional compression, digital platform operation, and e-knowledge management are the causing aspects helps to form smart product service system operational performance in high uncertainty. For practices, the banking decision-makers should develop innovative actions relied on the forcible compression, cyber-physical systems, industrial big data, cloud service allocation and sharing, and transparency improvement as they are most importance criteria playing a decisive role in a successful SPSS. This provides guidelines for banking industry practice in Taiwan encouraging the miscellany of digital technology accomplishment for sustainable target.

Sustainable consumption has been addressed in the literature in recent years, especially in relation to changing from a traditional consumption to sustainable consumption. Reducing environmental impacts from waste generation has been the focal point of sustainable consumption. However, a large number of attributes has caused a complexity in understanding which attributes effectively enhance the consumption. In particular, sustainable consumption has been facing a negative trend due to low levels of knowledge about packaging’s environmental impact, failed communication which leads to misperception and irresponsible behavior. This study contributes to proposing a set of attributes for enhancing sustainable consumption in the Indonesian food industry, to fulfill the lack of understanding of the attribute interrelationships using qualitative information. This study proposes a set of attributes to enhance sustainable consumption with qualitative information by assessing the interrelationships among the attributes employing the Delphi method and fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory method to provide causal and effect relationships. As a result, corporate communication, consumer perception, consumer behavior, and product packaging are major aspects for sustainable consumption enhancement. Corporate communication becomes a major driver to affect perception and behavior. This study proposes a managerial insight for the packaged food industry on improving several criteria including green marketing, green consumerism, verbal features, and importance of information.

This study contributes a hierarchical framework for sustainable solid waste management in the context of crisis and organizational changes. A resource utilization model for sustainable solid waste management in Vietnam is built, and important attributes for providing practical crisis responses are indicated by employing the resource-based view and resource dependence theory. COVID-19 has created obstacles and uncertainty among municipalities, making it necessary for solid waste management organizations to enhance their capability to assess available resources and thereby quickly respond to changes. A hybrid method consisting of the fuzzy Delphi method, a fuzzy interpretive structural modeling matrix of cross-impact multiplications applied to classification, and a fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation method is proposed to structure the hierarchical framework and to transform uncertain and complex attributes into measurable attributes. There are 30 valid attributes arranged into 12 levels and grouped into 9 aspects of sustainable resource utilization. The results show that the policy and regulation framework has the greatest driving power, followed by information sharing and communication, occupational intervention, employment standards, and city parameter support. The linkage criteria, which have strong driving and dependence power in equilibrium interactions with other criteria and play an essential role in balancing the system, include the skills and capacities of in-house staff, working conditions and the environment, internal knowledge sharing and exchange, staff awareness and training, and the design of safety interventions; these criteria must be emphasized in practice.

This study contributes to building a valid hierarchical sustainable solid waste management (SSWM) attribute set with qualitative information, which is a complicated and ambiguous problem with uncertainties. Few studies have provided qualitative information and have addressed the interrelationships and interdependencies among the hierarchical SSWM attributes. SSWM has recently become a difficult problem to solve due to urbanization, inequality, and economic growth. This study aims to propose an SSWM attribute set and identify a causal model through linguistic preferences by using a fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory approach to simultaneously handle the uncertainty and the interrelationships. The analytic network process is used to develop the hierarchical structure to weigh the aspects and criteria. Qualitative information is transformed into crisp and comparable values to examine the causal relationships between attributes and confirm the consistency between the theoretical structure and industry phenomena. The results indicate that policy and regulations, stakeholder participation, and social impacts play essential roles in these causal interrelationships. Political leadership in SSWM is required to drive stakeholder participation and achieve social impacts. Population growth and migration, institutional settings, waste recycling and energy recovery, households, and private contractors are the main aspects involved in improving SSWM in Vietnam.

This study contributes to assess the sustainable solid-waste management of coastal and marine cities in Vietnam due to prior studies are lacking to develop a set of measures in hierarchical structure. Coastal and marine tourism cities are the largest and fastest growing segment of the tourism industry. City infrastructures are being developed in the absence of a solid-waste management capacity and create a gap in the measurement of sustainable solid-waste management. This study employs both qualitative techniques and quantitative measures to extend the literature. An exploratory factor analysis is applied to test the proposed hierarchical framework's validity and reliability. A fuzzy synthetic evaluation and a decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory are used to evaluate sustainable solid-waste management in the cities. A set of criteria that consider the economic benefit, environment assessment and social impact are constructed on six aspects: funding and expenditures, tourism activities, the policy and legal framework, environmental co-creation, stakeholder participation and community awareness. The result reveals the causal interrelationships among the aspects and that stakeholder participation, tourism activities, and the policy and legal framework are the causal attributes for achieving sustainability performance. Civil construction debris, the tourist flow, the support of political leadership, cost-sharing and mutual strategy adoption, and technical cooperation are also found to be success criteria that contribute as practical guidelines for practitioners and communities. More emphasis needs to be placed on coastal and marine environments, and doing so has the highest priority value and contributes to raising awareness of issues in the development process.

This study aims to present a systematic data-driven bibliometric analysis on municipal solid waste management as a foundation in a circular economy. The current literature has yet to be fully developed given the complexity of the corresponding concept and knowledge. Traditional bibliometric analysis lacks the ability to screen out important keywords for future directions, and the keyword frequencies are described numerically. This study applies the entropy weight method to convert the frequencies to weights and performs regional comparisons based on a database; hence, this study contributes to the literature by providing potential future directions. The database includes 413 published articles, and 41 indicators are listed. The results are used to identify valid indicators for improvement and provide a regional state-of-the-art comparison. The top 5 indicators for future study are incineration, life cycle assessment, plastic waste, sorting solid waste, and sustainability. A bibliographic coupling analysis provides a comparison of 5 regions and reveals that Africa and North America have less studies than other regions.

Prior studies in sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) fail to address collaboration in the supply chain and lean management in conjunction with economic benefits. Collaboration in the supply chain and lean management have to integrate into SSCM, which involves social, economic and environmental aspects. This study aims to establish a framework to understand the seafood industry in Vietnam and to enhance its performance. This framework proposes 5 aspects and 21 criteria, and these aspects involve qualitative information. Fuzzy set theory is applied to deal with the complexity of and uncertainty in the linguistic preferences. The fuzzy Delphi method is employed to test the reliability and validity attributes. A decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory is to assess the interrelationships among the attributes. Sensitivity analysis is adopted to address subjective robustness and objective perceptions. The results show that the aspects of collaboration in the supply chain and lean management drive economic benefits.

Resources and expertise for controlling processes are inadequate due to municipal solid waste management (MSWM) capability limitations in Vietnam. The resource-based view (RBV) needs to be considered in the assessment of municipal solid waste management. Nevertheless, in practice, various attributes of municipal solid waste management are not considered in the sustainable performance of cities. Hence, this study applied exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to confirm the validity and reliability of these attributes and construct a hierarchical structure. Fuzzy set theory was used to convert the linguistic preferences into crisp values and the decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) method was used to assess the causal interrelationships among the attributes. The analytic network process (ANP) was adopted to construct the hierarchical framework, and fuzzy importance - performance analysis (IPA) was used to enhance our understanding of the gap between importance and performance. The results show that the efficiency and effectiveness of cities’ waste management systems depend on the capability based on utilizing economic efficiency and technology advantages to foster social mobilization and environmental integrity. Practitioners should consider new data acquisition and communication technologies, the circular economy, technical capabilities, and organizational/leadership capabilities in their decision making to promote sustainable performance. To develop sustainable MSWM, suitable strategic solutions based on the resources and strengths of each city should be developed that consider formal, informal and small-scale sectors.

Social media has changed how tourists source and assess information about tourist products and destinations. Tourists can now easily share their travel experiences through text-based posts, photographs, and real-time videos on social media. Such word of mouth (WOM) allows tourists to focus on and develop an interest in diverse tourism experiences and efficiently interact with other travelers as reliable information sources. However, studies on the cruise industry remains scarce in this issue. Thus, this study examines the impact of travel information sourced from social media on consumers’ purchase intentions with WOM (WOM praise and WOM activities) as a mediating factor. The analysis employs a value-based adoption model derived from prospect theory and mental accounting theory from the perspective of benefit maximization (information reliability and enjoyment). Empirical data are collected (n = 305) using a survey. Structural equation modeling reveals that social media users’ WOM significantly influences consumers’ purchase intentions. That is, WOM increases the benefits of sourcing information on cruise travels from social media. Further, experience sharing through WOM significantly impacts consumers’ decision making. The study concludes with theoretical and practical implications.

This study aims to explore integrated solid waste management hierarchical interrelationships using a sustainable balance scorecard approach. The proposed analysis using the fuzzy Delphi method to exclude invalid attributes, interpretive structural modeling to arrange attributes into an extensive hierarchical model, and using a fuzzy decision-making trial-and-evaluation laboratory to examine the causal interrelationships among attributes. The solid waste management systems in Vietnam are generally inefficient due to a lack of proper administrative oversight, infrastructure, and adequate resource utilization. Integrated solid waste management is an important provision in public service systems. There is a need to propose and evaluate better management approaches to enhance waste process activities and increase sustainable performance. Collected qualitative information is converted into a crisp value for the evaluation process, and the qualitative data stem from the operations. This study measures 6 aspects and 24 criteria. The results showed that financial investment, stakeholder involvement, and innovation capacity are decisive causal aspects in which stakeholder involvement and innovation capacity are interrelated. The cost efficiency, stakeholder collaboration, flexibility/adaptability to environmental changes, availability of local technical skills, and knowledge acquisition and communication technologies are identified as the linkage criteria that present the highest driving and dependence powers to help decision makers achieve better operational performance.

Solid waste management leads to resource loss and limited waste management approaches. Nevertheless, solid waste management must be studied in terms of sustainability by both academicians and practitioners. There are barriers to understanding and challenges to maintaining sustainable solid waste management practices. Hence, this study collects a set of attributes, including seven aspects and 146 barriers, from the existing literature. The barriers are the cause of poor sustainable solid waste management performance in practice due to limited resources. Hence, this study aims to identify the major barriers presented as qualitative information; however, the attributes need to be transformed into a comparable scale. This study applied the fuzzy Delphi method to acquire valid and reliable attributes through qualitative information. The results show 44 essential barriers to sustainable solid waste management. Four aspects are included: (1) technical difficulties; (2) information sharing and knowledge problems; (3) human resource limitations; and (4) financial and economic problems. The most important barriers are identified as household hazardous waste, insufficient funds for SWM research, local architecture, a lack of staff capability, and a lack of a standard process for data collection and analysis. The theoretical and managerial implications are discussed.

There are existing inadequate and ineffective practices that are not only common in Vietnam but also explicit in each municipal area. This study compares the municipal solid waste management attributes of cities in Vietnam under uncertainty. The uncertainties include the interrelationships among the attributes, linguistic preferences and qualitative information on the attributes. This study applies exploratory factor analysis to test the validity and reliability of the proposed attributes. Fuzzy set theory is used to translate the linguistic references into the qualitative attributes of municipal solid waste management. The decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory is used to address the interrelationships among the attributes. This study identifies the causal interrelationships among attributes using qualitative information, and a set of 14 attributes is defined and found to be valid and reliable for measurement. The results show that technical integration and social acceptability are the aspects that drive municipal solid waste management. Treatment innovations, safety and health, economic benefits, and technology functionality and appropriateness are determined to be the linkage criteria. The distinctions between cities are identified, Hanoi focuses on the institutional and organizational administration framework, whereas resource efficiency is an aspect of specific concern in Danang, and Ho Chi Minh City prioritized financial and operational requirements and facilities and infrastructure requirements. The implications for theory and practice are discussed.

The existing literatures are lacking on the cost and benefit concerns, screening the measures and convergence of interval-valued triangular fuzzy numbers-grey relation analysis (IVTFN-GRA) weight together. Nonetheless, Green supply chain management is always suffering the linguistic preferences and system incomplete information in evaluation process to enhance the performance. Yet, those previous studies are merely based on un-converged weight results. Hence, this study proposed a hybrid method to dealing with this multi-criteria evaluation problem. Fuzzy Delphi method proposes to screen the evaluation criteria and converged IVTFN-GRA weight method handles the vagueness system uncertainty and incomplete information with interdependence relations. Hence, the proposed hybrid method enhanced the green supply chain management and compared multi-methods to enhance their performance in Taiwanese electronic focal firm. The result showed that the converged weight is consistent with the real practices, despite the differences with the current average weighting method. The finding in the long-term perspective: resilience and operational improvement are the top weighted aspects.
