The aim of this study is to develop a better theoretical and practical understanding of the impact that quality of service has in customer-bank relationship. This study examines the perception of service quality by clients of commercial banks operating in Albania and the effect that this quality has in customer-bank relationship. Measuring the perception of service quality is based on SERVQUAL model proposed by Parasuraman, Zeithaml - Berry (1988), while the measurement of customer-bank relationship is made according to the model proposed by Ward - Dagger (2007). Results of this analysis indicate that the quality of service is an important prerequisite of customer-bank relationship.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyse the influence of service quality dimensions as determinants of the emotional and relational behaviours experienced by the client in bank branches in the post-crisis context experienced by Spanish financial institutions. Design/methodology/approach Data taken from a total of 1,125 customers were analysed through structural equations modelling (EQS6.1) to test the relationships of the proposed model’s variables. Findings The results support the hypotheses stated, with the exception of the influence of a service quality dimension (servicescape) on emotions during the service. In fact, the dimensions of the service quality of an intangible nature (personnel, outcome and social) are determinants of the positive emotions and relational behaviours of clients around the service provided by the branches. For its part, servicescape quality, of a more tangible nature, exerts indirect influence on the other dimensions that compose the quality of service. Practical implications This paper provides senior bank executives established evidence on the degree of influence of the different dimensions in relation to the quality of service in the bank branch. Furthermore, it emphasises the importance of emotional factors during service as essential elements in strengthening customer–staff relationships under a non-transactional dynamic. Originality/value This paper has adopted an analytical holistic, theoretical and empirical perspective on the impact of the different dimensions of service quality (servicescape, personnel, outcome and social) as well as to the emotions experienced by banking customers during services and its lasting effect on customer engagement and customer advocacy.

The type of analysis used is quantitative research to explain the dependent variable's effect on the independent variable and the mediating variable. This study population was all 102 patients with DAMA at Majene Hospital, as the population was deemed limited and the whole population was sampled. The test results of the coefficient of determination of the path analysis of substructure 1 resulted in a modified R square value of 0.235. In this case, it is argued that patient satisfaction is affected by the hospital picture and quality of service by 23.5 percent. In comparison, the remaining 76.5 percent is influenced by other variables not analysed in this review.

With the advent of High Performance Computing (HPC) in the large-scale parallel computational environment, better job scheduling and resource allocation techniques are required to deliver Quality of Service (QoS). Therefore, job scheduling on a large-scale parallel system has been studied to minimize the queue time, response time, and to maximize the overall system utilization. The objective of this paper is to touch upon the recent methods used for dynamic resource allocation across multiple computing nodes and the impact of scheduling algorithms. In addition, a quantitative approach which explains a trend line analysis on dynamic allocation for batch processors is depicted. Throughout the survey, the trends in research on dynamic allocation and parallel computing is identified, besides, highlights the potential areas for future research and development. This study proposes the design for an efficient dynamic scheduling algorithm based on the Quality-of-Service. The analysis provides a compelling research platform to optimize dynamic scheduling of jobs in HPC.

The publication presents the results of research on the quality of service to residents by public administration on the example of municipal offices in Poland. The aim of the research, resulting from the identified research gap, was to examine the level of customer service quality in Polish municipal offices and to determine whether monitoring the quality of life and the quality of public services provided affect the quality of customer service. The research was carried out on a wide sample of 287 cities located around Poland, the sample was selected at random. The sample was good in such a way as to maintain the structure by province. The survey included questions rated on a 5-point Likert scale. The conducted research shows that there are no statistically significant differences in the level of customer service quality by municipal offices between individual provinces of Poland. Based on the research, it was found that: the existence of a quality-of-life department in the city has a positive impact on the quality of customer service in the office; monitoring the quality of life of residents and the quality of public services provided by the municipal office has a positive impact on the quality of customer service in the office, the implementation of the ISO 37120 standard by the municipal office has a positive impact on the quality of customer service in the city.
